South Dakota man arrested for threatening to blow up VA hospitals. But don't worry America, he's not a Muslim. Whew!

A man indicted on charges for possessing explosives in Gregory County made frequent threats about blowing up two South Dakota Veteran's Affairs hospitals, according to a report from a Division of Criminal Investigation special agent. 

Martin Rezac, 59, of Dallas, S.D., was hospitalized on Thanksgiving Day when an explosive device detonated in his home at 413 Des Moines Ave. in Dallas, a small town in south-central South Dakota. 

According to court documents, Rezac "possibly lost several fingers" from both hands and sustained cuts and abrasions to his face due to the explosion. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance after the explosion. 

Earlier this month, a judge approved a warrant for Rezac's arrest. He was indicted and charged with three felonies on Friday. 

On Nov. 27, the day after the explosion, a DCI special agent interviewed Rezac's friend, Allen Kayl, who was in custody in the Winner City Jail. 

Kayl told law enforcement officers that Rezac made several comments about VA hospital staff "pissing him off," court documents state. Kayl said Rezac frequently made comments about blowing up a VA hospital and said he knew how to do it, court documents state. 

When asked if Kayl believed Rezac was capable of doing so, Kayl allegedly "confirmed there was a possibility he would in fact do it."

You KNOW that if this gentleman had been a Muslim from the Middle East that this story would be on a never ending loop over at Fox News.

Instead they recently attacked the President for acknowledging that homegrown domestic terrorists are actually at least as dangerous, if not more dangerous, than Islamic terrorists from other countries:

It shows that he’s out of touch. It shows that when he is going to come forward with a response to a question like that, with some empirical data, to somehow prove that yeah, well, I guess it’s a threat but there have been equal or greater threats, and then it fits into that meme that somehow Americans are a greater threat to other Americans than those abroad that are trying to kill us. That’s wrong, and I think that’s why he’s been having real terrible problems with the American people for a long time. 

Yeah, if the Donald Trump campaign proves nothing else it proves that Americans would rather you lie to them than tell you an uncomfortable truth.

Terrorism is terrorism kids, and it makes little difference which religion to adhere to, or in which country you were born.

All Americans mourn the death of Kayla Mueller who was recently killed while held hostage by ISIS. Well, unless you are a rabidly pro-Israel conservative American that is.

On Tuesday, the radical Islamic group the Islamic State announced that 26-year-old hostage Kayla Mueller was dead, reportedly in a Jordanian bombing raid. 

As Talking Points Memo reported, while much of the world reacted with horror and grief at the death, many conservatives took to social media to celebrate the killing and call the young aid worker a terrorist sympathizer and “anti-Israel bitch” because of her work on behalf of the occupied people of Palestine. 

In a piece titled “Kayla Mueller: Dead ISIS Hostage Was Jew-Hating, Anti-Israel Bitch,” conservative blogger Debbie Schlussel wrote, “No tears for the newly-departed Kayla Mueller, the ISIS hostage whose parents confirmed today that she is dead.” 

“Mueller was a Jew-hating, anti-Israel piece of crap who worked with HAMAS and helped Palestinians harass Israeli soldiers and block them from doing their job of keeping Islamic terrorists out of Israel,” Schlussel wrote. 

“I have no sympathy for any of these ‘American’ (in name only!) hostages of ISIS,” she went on. “And my attitude when I hear they’ve been snuffed out is, so sad, too bad.” 

One conservative website urged readers to pause before they mourn Mueller’s death and ask whether her support of Palestine was ultimately what killed her. 

“People should be asking is why this young American girl was in Syria in the first place,” said Conservative-Headlines.com. “The fact is that Kayla Mueller was a Cultural Marxist who talked about her ‘privilege.’”

Damn you would think that this deeply religious young woman would be somebody who conservatives would identify with, but since there seemed to have been ideological differences concerning the Israel-Palestinian situation they are almost gleeful that she has died.

I think the word for that is "disgusting."
