Letter: It should be obvious they were terrorists

The Obama administration reminds me of a family that owns a pit bull terrier that killed a group of children claiming, "He isn't a vicious dog, he was just hungry."

Can anyone else understand why a prosperous young married couple with an infant would assault peaceful holiday partygoers with pipe bombs and automatic weapons with thousands of rounds of ammunition if they weren't terrorists?

America should offer lugubrious people that are so disconcerted with America a free, one-way ticket to the country of their choice in exchange for their passports and a signed legal rejection of their United States citizenship.
