Army: 12 die in dual shootings at Fort Hood, Texas - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091105/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_fort_hood_shooting - broken link)
Probably some of those Southern Poverty Law Center terrorist.
A senior administration official told NBC News analyst Roger Cressey that the suspect who was in custody was an Army major with an Arabic-sounding name. I will be surprised if they are not muslim.
At least seven people were killed dead and 20 others were wounded in a mass shooting incident Thursday at Fort Hood, Texas, where at least one suspect were believed to be in custody, NBC News and NBC affiliate KCEN-TV reported.
More shots were reported later in the afternoon, reported KCEN of Waco, which said no further details were immediately available.
Good grief
how horrific, our own brave military shot down
12 dead, 31 wounded!!
just watched Obama come out to speak and what the hell does he do first??
Smile and wave and talk about his stupid agenda
what a frigging hack
finally he talks about what happened, think he gives a ****?
Probably one of the military's own who blew a gasket.
Sadly, if this is true, one can attribute such an extreme act of violence as collateral damage and something that goes with the territory, unfortunately.
Enough things like this occur........will be cause more than ever.....for the govt. to desire all troops to be of artificial intelligence, i.e. robots......void of emotion, conscious, question or reason.
Programmable and millions strong.
Shooting took place at readiness center. Shooting soldier had two handguns. Two other possible suspects at Walmart on base - swat team called and they were apprehended. Soldiers shot were getting ready to be deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan (were having some kind of ceremony at readiness center). One policeman killed. Heard on cb radio the soldier who did the shooting was a Major in the Army - can't confirm. Think shooter was shot and killed.
