This appears to be another story being blown out of proportion.

When an employer checks you out on social media all they can do is potentially view public posts like this one. The killers from California apparently did not make any public remarks on social media about jihad or martyrdom, so there's no way the VISA background checks would have caught it anyway.

but the moron isis guy who posted a photo on FB in front of his headquarters sure did some good as in less than 48 hours the place was blown off the face of the earth. trouble is they announced it instead of keeping it quiet so they and the media would not tip off the enemy from more stupidity.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
