Letter: Extremists deserve extreme response

ISIS, the Sunni extremist Muslim group (also known as the army of fanatics or Islamic extremist) is known as a group of killers. They even kill fellow Shiite Muslims and especially non-converts. And yes, they are in the USA! What a lot of people don't know is they also marry very young girls! They are not only killers; They are sick.

Our leaders must stop talking containment and start talking "destroyment." Our leader's first responsibility is to protect the people and the country.
