Shooting at Fort Hood

If you have hundreds of individuals walking around guns out, how do you tell who the shooter is?

 

Shout out to all the military guys in this thread, thank you for your brave service! Us civilians don't understand what we preach sometimes.

 

Translation: whatever the loss of life, facts on the ground, or actual policy details, I'm going to take this opportunity to spout my repetitive, ill-informed political talking point. Please retweet me.

That guy needs to get bent. (And Commodore, I think that kind of stuff belongs in the D&D. Start a shooting thread there if you want where you can riff on liberals telling the Army how to set policy or however that works.)

And big props and thanks to DaleDoback and heypartner. Have either of you read the book Yellowbirds about an Iraqi vet (by an Iraqi vet) -- beautiful and powerful book, speaking as a non-military person at least.

Thoughts and prayers to the Fort Hood community.

 

THANK you.

I get so sick of the put-guns-in-their-hands no-matter-what crowd.

 

What are you trying to say with your last sentence?

 

Amen, me too.

 

I haven't been able to keep up with this much, did the ******* set out to murder people or was there an altercation that set him off on his killing spree?

Has that been established yet?

 

Easy bro, no harm or sarcasm in that at all. Don't twist it up, I was just giving praise to the military guys. Again, I mean no harm bro.

 

It sounds like this had to be premeditated. As others have pointed out personal guns aren't allowed on Fort Hood so since he went to the trouble of smuggling a gun this was likely planned in advance.
