FORT HOOD (November 5, 2009)-Army officials have confirmed a violent incident has happened Thursday afternoon on post.

The reports indicate there may be at least twelve and maybe even as many as fifteen victims involved in this incident.

Details have not been released but it is known that ambulances and police are converging on a location in the center of the sprawling military post.

Ambulances from several agencies have been dispatched.

One unconfirmed report indicates an armed gunman has fired several shots and may have hit several people.

Ft. Hood officials report the area is not secure.

Is Ft. Hood a US Army installation, or just a city named after an old Fort?

There is this weird idea to rename Vancouver, Washington Ft. Vancovuer to help end confusion with Vancouver, British Columbia, Canunckistan

Why do they do this every time an incident occurs? Just more stuff to scare people if you ask me.

They better announce immediately if it looks like a Muslim terrorist attack so other places can go on alert.

Shep SMith reported that the local station (not sure whether radio or TV) said there were TWO suspects with one in custody. Dressed in army fatigues.

Please note that this is initial information, which often turns out to be false or misinterpreted. I am only posting what Shep said.

It's not to scare people. It's to condition people.

And if someone is on a rampage, sometimes it helps to keep others OUT.

If the EMS is speeding to one location in an emergency, it kind of leaves open another target elsewhere in a small town.

In the Middle East, they’ve even been known to detonate another bomb AFTER emergency crews arrive.

That's the thing. The shooting was at an army base far from schools.

If we are going to lock down schools for every incident might as well lock down every government building as well. Ya know, just to be on the safe side.

It only scares people, that's all I'm sayin.

Two incidents..One was at a processing facility..to and from war zone.

Another was at a theater location.

They aren't confirming the actual count. More to come.
