Figured this needed a new thread. This piece of crap was in a strip club a week before the shooting. Nothing says "devout muslim" more than drinking it up and getting lap dances from blonds at the local strip joint. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,573052,00.html Alleged Fort Hood Shooter Frequented Local Strip Club Sunday , November 08, 2009 By Jana Winter FC1 ADVERTISEMENT Killeen, Texas — The Army psychiatrist authorities say killed 13 people and wounded 29 others at the Fort Hood Army Base Thursday was a recent and frequent customer at a local strip club, employees of the club told FoxNews.com exclusively. Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan came into the Starz strip club not far from the base at least three times in the past month, the club's general manager, Matthew Jones, told FoxNews.com. Army investigators building their case against Hasan plan to interview Jones soon. "The last time he was here, I remember checking his military ID at the door, and he paid his $15 cover and stayed for six or seven hours," Jones, 37, said. Hasan's presence at the club paints a starkly different portrait of the alleged killer from that offered by his imam and family members, who have described him as a devout Muslim, and one who had difficulty finding a wife who would wear a head scarf and would pray five times a day. Starz is a strip club located just down the road from the main gate entrance to the Fort Hood Base. It does not serve alcohol, but customers bring their own beer and liquor and buy ice buckets and mixers at the club. Hasan sat at a table in the back corner of the club, to the left of the stage on which strippers dance around a pole, employees said. Jennifer Jenner, who works at Starz using the stage name Paige, said Hasan bought a lap dance from her two nights in a row. She said he paid $50 for a dance lasting three songs in one of the club's private rooms on Oct. 29 and Oct. 30. "I remembered his face because it was the first lap dance I [gave] to a customer while working here," she said. "When I saw his face [Friday] on TV, I jumped out of bed, I knew it was him." Jenner, 31, said Hasan was dressed casually both nights he came to the club - in jeans and a T-shirt the first night and then wearing a baseball cap the next. She recalled that he arrived at about 6:30 p.m. and stayed until 2 a.m. She said he brought in a six pack of light beer, took only a few sips from one can and gave the rest to the strippers. "He preferred the blondes," said Jenner, whose hair was dyed blond at the time. "He said he was a medic and that he was being deployed soon, but mostly he wanted to ask us questions." "He asked us why we were working at the strip club, if we liked the lifestyle, if we had any kids," she said. "It was right before Halloween so he asked what our kids were dressing up as. He just wanted to know a lot about us." Jenner said she asked Hasan why he liked coming to Starz instead of another of the roughly half a dozen other clubs nearby, all about an 8-minute drive from the Army base. "I like it here because no one I work with is here," she said Hasan replied. Starz is smaller than most of the other clubs, has only about 10 dancers and caters to a louder crowd. Jenner said Army medics generally don't hang out at the club. "He wasnt too loud like some of our other customers, or sleazy. He didn't try to take any of us home and he was respectful," she said. "I think he mostly came here to kill some time and just relax. He stood out here because he was much more reserved than our other customers. "I just can't believe that he's the one who killed all those people. You know, he tipped every girl as she came off the stage after her dance. He was a really good tipper."
Wow. Further proof that his religon had little to do with this. He goes there because he knows no body he knows goes there? Pyschopath SOB
The muslims who commit extremist acts are not real muslims according to muslims, just putting that out there.
This guy going to a strip club has nothing to do with whether his religious beliefs influenced his actions at Fort Hood. Religious people are without exception flawed people, just like non-religious people. Nearly all religious people know this all too well about themselves, and will be the first to tell you that they are flawed if you ask them. Their religion provides a way to atone for those flaws and perhaps also to reduce them. A person's religion is not a certification of their flawlessness.
let me get this straight all muslims = terrorists all terrorists frequent strip clubs because i've been to a strip club, does that make me a terrorist or a muslim?
Maybe he was looking for 1,000 virgins at the strip club. He got mad, left and decided to Jihad to find his 1000 virgins in the name of Allah.
i'm into brunettes and redheads. You can't be in the armed forces and never attend a 'scriptclub'. You'd think those clubs would lower the prices on the lap dances for our friends and family serving! At least 8 dollars per song.
i can agree with this and add that Religion doesn't make anyone do anything. i'll throw the "guns don't kill people, people kill people" cliche as an analogy.

In late February 2001, hijacker Ziad Jarrah frequents a strip club in Jacksonville, Florida (see February 25-March 4, 2001). In July 2001, hijackers Hamza Alghamdi and Marwan Alshehhi make two purchases of “pornographic video and sex toys” from a Florida store (see July 4-27, 2001). Some hijackers, including possibly Satam Al Suqami and Waleed and Wail Alshehri, sleep with prostitutes in the days before 9/11 (see September 7-11, 2001). On September 10, three hijacker associates spend $200 to $300 apiece on lap dances and drinks in the Pink Pony, a Daytona Beach, Florida strip club. While the hijackers had left Florida by this time, Mohamed Atta is reported to have visited the same strip club, and these men appear to have had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks (see September 10, 2001). [Boston Herald, 10/10/2001] Marwan Alshehhi and Mohamed Atta are seen entering the Hollywood, Florida, sports bar Shuckums already drunk. They proceed to drink even more hard alcohol there (see September 7, 2001). Atta and Alshehhi are seen at Sunrise 251, a bar in Palm Beach, Florida. They spend $1,000 in 45 minutes on Krug and Perrier-Jouet champagne. Atta is with a tall busty brunette in her late twenties; Alshehhi is with a shortish blonde. Both women are known locally as regular companions of high-rollers. [Daily Mail, 9/16/2001] A stripper at the Olympic Garden Topless Cabaret in Las Vegas, Nevada, later recalls Marwan Alshehhi being “cheap,” paying only $20 for a lap dance. [Cox News Service, 10/16/2001] Several hijackers reportedly patronize the Nardone’s Go-Go Bar in Elizabeth, New Jersey. They are even seen there on the weekend before 9/11. [Boston Herald, 10/10/2001; Wall Street Journal, 10/16/2001] Majed Moqed visits a p*rn shop on three occasions and rents a p*rn video. The mayor of Paterson, New Jersey, later says of the six hijackers who stayed there, “Nobody ever saw them at mosques, but they liked the go-go clubs.” [Newsday, 9/23/2001; Newsweek, 10/15/2001] Nawaf Alhazmi and Khalid Almihdhar often frequent Cheetah’s, a nude bar in San Diego. [Los Angeles Times, 9/1/2002] Marwan Alshehhi is possibly seen in the Cheetah nightclub in Pompado Beach, Florida, on July 1, 2001. Six dancers who work there later claim to have seen him. [Federal Bureau of Investigation, 10/2001, pp. 173 ] Hamza Alghamdi watches a p*rn video on September 10. [Wall Street Journal, 10/16/2001] Temple University in Philadelphia professor Mahmoud Mustafa Ayoub will later comment: “It is incomprehensible that a person could drink and go to a strip bar one night, then kill themselves the next day in the name of Islam.… People who would kill themselves for their faith would come from very strict Islamic ideology. Something here does not add up.” [South Florida Sun-Sentinel, 9/16/2001]
that's what it reminded me of. i remember that exact same discussion right after 9/11. how can these guys be seriously religious if they're hanging out in strip clubs and drinking?? one of them was hooking up with a prostitute...that never comported with the whole, "these guys are religious fundamentalists" discussion that was happening otherwise...seemed conflicted given that the guys shaved their bodies in some sort of religious observance to make themselves "pure" before they slammed planes into a building. i wonder if the 9/11 guys thought that by making themselves martyrs, they were guaranteed paradise, anyway...so they were kind of free to do as they wished leading up to it?? i don't know. we'll never know that, i guess.
the 9-11 hijackers went to strip clubs too! And they also received health care. NATIONAL health care.
