Holy Shit - Mass Shooting at Fort Hood Texas

[kaiser soze]

Fort Hood Commander Lt. Gen Bob Cone said at a news conference late Thursday afternoon that one shooter was killed and two suspects were apprehended on Thursday.

He said they are all U.S. soldiers.

The Associated Press quotes a law enforcement official who says one shooting suspect at Fort Hood has been identified as Army Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan.

The official said Hasan, who’s believed to be in his late 30s, was killed after opening fire at the base.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the case publicly.

The base is home of one of the most extensive mental health programs for war veterans, the suspected shooter was a mental health professional, what could have driven him to do this?

if only they had gun control measures at military bases....

[kaiser soze]

The people who defend your Country, Constitution, and Life and that is what you have to say?

wow, for a "patriot" you surely care about your soldiers

[valvano]

nope, using plain liberal bumper sticker logic...

could have easily blamed it on Bush, homophobia, Jesus / Christians, lack of medical coverage, house being foreclosed, global warming, Bush again, Reaganomics...among many others. i chose to blame lack of gun control...this was obviously the fault of the NRA and the pro-gun militia mentality...and red necks...

[Whatitis]

You're fucking wacky Valvano.

exactly. this "adult" has the gall to take a thread about a horrific tragedy, the murder of soldiers who defend his country, and take it down into the gutter with really low partisan, snide remarks.

[freetibet]

What was that scumbag of we-all-know-what-origin doing in the almighty US Army in the first place?

Send all such "Americans" back to Arabia and everything's gonna be OK.

But yes, I somehow feel guilty for that massacre. White, catholic, anti social health care etc. - I brought that man to the tragic and heroic act of killing some dozen worthy and clean American Soldiers. Valvano's got a point there.

[kaiser soze]

I am not surprised by the comments of those who more than likely support the wars, hate people of other races, and have never served their country.

It is the ideology of spilling blood for good that has warped their minds and numbed their souls to a tragedy such as this (and the tragedy of war). Contrary to the flags they have wrapped themselves in we are finally seeing how they truly feel deep down in their shallow souls. Their respect for our soldiers end when our soldiers are broken, when they deserve our support and respect the most.

We have been over exposed to their immaturity, callousness, and lack of humanity for quite some time now.

such a shame adults can be or act this way, children have more integrity.

I really don't know why freetibet and valvano are allowed to post here. They should take it to the Stormfront message boards.

First that is an opinion piece not news

Secondly I agree it wasn't the best way to start his speech but he was taking care of giving recognition before moving onto more serious business. He didn't make light of the shooting like you and your fellow "patriot" did. I'm sure he'll still face the backlash for it.

He has since given another press conference specifically concerning this shooting.

nice try, it didn't change the fact that you posted your bullshit.

why are you calling me a patriot? george mason is a good school but i didnt go to there...and i dont like new england, their coach is a scum bag.

[Schmeltz]

There's no need to tell us you didn't go to a good school, it's really quite abundantly clear.

I'm not sure why this thread is even in General Political as it strikes me there's nothing political about the event at all. Tragedies like this typically do spark some kind of debate about firearms control but that's one area in which the military and civilian spheres are obviously different. So aside from the same silly, empty-headed feces slinging that valvano and freetibet are incapable of rising above, what are we left with? Just another woefully deficient individual who slipped through the cracks and snapped. It's not political, it's just sad.

[freetibet]

1) I guess it would break a "liberal" jaw to explain, what such piece of camel vomit was doing in the Almighty US Army, blessed be its name. Go ahead, absorb more of that multi-culti terror seed. I ain't racist, I'm just sick of terrorists coming from some sort of Terra Terroristica, and not from, Heaven forbid: Arabia, Jordania, Egypt or Eurabia. Learn from the Israeli - nothing stops them as good as a solid 3m high concrete wall.
2) So going to a good school (ie full of leftist useless professors) makes you a qualified discussion attendant. Good to know that.
3) A >muslim< kills 13 people with a >gun<. Ban on guns! LOL

4) And apparently this is some political issue. When will you stop being so blind?

[kaiser soze]

I thought this forum would be the best place for this considering General Discussion usually doesn't carry topics like this. But if you have problems with this thread feel free to join in the discussion over there.

and freetibet, I'm curious....what kind of ethnicities/religions/creeds should be able to join the U.S. military? Seeing that we have people from all walks of life serving in our armed forces.

It is unfortunate that you pride yourself as a bigot....yeah you're not racist riiiiight. So if this was a white person what kind of shit would you be spewing....nothing.

nobody called for a ban on guns, keep trying to read minds young jedi.

I'd rather be college educated than a whatever you call yourself.

Odd, the religion of the man who went on a shooting spree in Orlando hasn't been brought up, why is that? Why not the serial killer in Cleveland? Or Timothy McVeigh? Or other soldiers who have killed their families?

I am not defending this monster, he was an officer and psychiatrist, he knew damn well where to go if 1) He was being persecuted for his religion and 2) If he was dealing with emotional and mental stress. There is no excuse for what he did, but to blame him solely because of his religion is idiotic at best.

[freetibet]

Oh yeah. And the same applies to thousands of other terrorists who happen (accidentally) to share the same religion as he does. It should totally not be blamed on his religion, no sir!

Well he wasn't white and his surname sounded nothing like AMERICAN (bear in my mind America was built by WASPs. And by Black people - uncle Toms etc.). Oh wait, he sooo resembles the President;D

I don't negate the fact that a sh**load of white garbage rednecks is also a sort of a burden. But what about their reasons? Being deprived of their country by arrogant imigrants from cultures openly hostile to every freakin' brick America was built on. After that communist vote result tonight - having to pay (whatever the socialist administration hasn't yet stolen from them) for the med care for those unfriendly pseudo-Americans. Suming up, OK there was McVeigh. And there was IRA (leftist, sadly). Crimes happen all the time. But nowadays a majority of terror acts is committed by n-W n-AS n-P(Ch)s. Fact.

Who should be admitted? Someone who salutes the Flag, speaks English (or at least tries and learns) and didn't spend the last three summer vacations on an education camp in Afghanistan / or (for other problematic immigrants America welcomes): does not already have a dozen of cousins in the Latino mob in Miami / Texas.

This brings an obvious truth to my mind, which is kinda off-topic but the hell with that: all those annoyed (and annoying) immigrants in America or Eurabia are so cherished by the leftists because they can build a great electorate upon it. Undereducated, hostile towards the guest-societies strangers who the leftistrs don't really give a damn about (but they can lie and pretend they do - they are good at that).

And when some white catholic (=fascist, although fascism and nazism were sorts of SOCIALISM) mentions the fact that the guy's name sounded like he was a beduin .shepperd - down with the racist!! they say.

[DroppinScience]

You know, the U.S. was ALSO hostile towards Polish immigrants back in the day. In fact, they may have referred to them as "annoying immigrants" as you seem to call Latinos and Muslims.

You really are an embarrassment.

freetibet, I have an honest question for you: do you think anybody here takes you or what you have to say seriously?

[valvano]

political correctness could be an issue here:

Probably because those other folks weren't receiving guidence or council from known terrorists?

How so?

but I will play along

So could people not doing their job and snatching this guy up before he committed a crime. It appears he was being investigated, what were they waiting for.....A massacre?

The Army is really doing a horrible job weeding out extremists from many angles, especially since they have lowered their standards in recruitment. There are too many extremists of all kinds and mentally ill individuals in our military at this time.

Probably because those other folks weren't receiving guidence or council from known terrorists?

how smug of you

I posted that before more information came out, and the news immediately jumped on his religion prior to that information coming out.

[RobMoney$]

You tried to dismiss his religion as having any involvement with the crime he committed.

Suspicions about his religion were proven to be justified.

Perhaps you shouldn't be so eager to dismiss such an obvious concerns in your effort to be PC in the future.

[travesty]

Innocent until proven guilty. The only people who have "proven" that his religion had anything to do with it are the casualty vampires in the media and those of us who would pass judgement without all the facts.

[kaiser soze]

Will you please quote my dismissal please, I'm having a hard time finding it.

And sorry for not being a psychic, but religious fanaticism falls under mental illness in my opinion. So my first response was that this man was horrible overwhelmed and torn over his potential deployment. I never said that Islam was the cause of this, nor did I say it wasn't.

What I did confront was the perceived persecution of Muslims in the military and in society for the action of this man.

I didn't jump to conclusions that Islam was the cause of this, does that make me a horrible person now? Hell the people investigating him didn't believe his religious beliefs were a threat.
