Absurd that on an army post nobody had a gun handy to stop the shooter.

That's because safety is their number one job.

Actually, 14 were killed cause one female soldier was pregnant. The baby died. But they never mention this little KIA, since unborn babies are not classified as humans.

One thing not mentioned is Hassan is now confined to a wheelchair. He hoped for death, but now he has to have the humiliation of having a male nurse have to take care of him.

Aside from security men at arms is up to the base commander. Only recently troops who obtained a CCW permit are allowed to carry on base, but not civilians.

Thanks for the post.

He came, He killed, He’s ALIVE.

In military cases, there are several mandatory appeal stages and a military death sentence requires final approval by the president, as commander in chief.

Despite the expected delays, survivors of the shooting welcomed the verdict. According to news reports, Kathy Platoni, an Army reservist, said: “From the bottom of my heart — he doesn’t deserve to live. I don’t know how long it takes for a death sentence to be carried out, but the world will be a better place without him.”

What say you dubya, Cruz, Gohmert? Yeah, that’s what I thought.

OOPS did someone say justice?

The military hasn't executed anyone since 1961, and most likely will not execute Hassan.
Hassan called for his own execution, and he was sentenced to death, but that would make a martyr of him and that is what he wants.

Better to let him rot in jail humiliated for the rest of his life with Bubba the Gay Nurse having to clean him up every day.

Bubba also forcibly shaves off Hasan’s Islamic beard every day.

How can we forget General George Casey? From Reuters:

General George Casey, the Army’s top officer, is concerned that diversity will become a casualty of the Fort Hood tragedy.

TEXAS-SHOOTING/The religious beliefs of suspect Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim Army psychiatrist, have led to speculation about motive in the shooting rampage that killed 13 people.

“I’m concerned that this increased speculation could cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers. And I’ve asked our Army leaders to be on the lookout for that,” Casey told CNN’s “State of the Union.”

Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” whether Muslim soldiers are conflicted in fighting wars in Muslim countries like Afghanistan and Iraq, Casey said: “I think that’s something that we have to look at on an individual basis. But I think we as an Army have to be broad enough to bring in people from all walks of life.”

The bottom line is the military benefits from diversity, he said.

“Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And: AS HORRIFIC AS THIS TRAGEDY WAS, IF OUR DIVERSITY BECOMES A CASUALTY, I THINK THAT’S WORSE(A Tragedy)” Casey said.

Get that. “Diversity” is worth MORE to Casey than 13 Dead(12 Soldiers and one civilian) and 30 wounded soldiers.

General Casey is/was an ABSOLUTE disgrace in this situation. He is/was your typical DC Swamp Soldier. Totally disconnected from REAL soldiers.

About the same time they execute Khalil Sheikh Muhammad.

Meanwhile, let ‘em rot.

This situation that happened at Fort Hood should have been resolved a long time ago, but certain politicians have been so busily occupied with trying to remove a legally elected president & other trivia....they just haven’t had the time. Of course, the major media is no help either.

A measure of how far we’ve lost the republic. Who stands for the murderers of innocent life?

I well remember this meme coming out of that muzzie attack at Ft. Hood.

Image result for THEY DIED FOR DIVERSITY

This was the comment that sparked that meme....

“Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse.”

Gen. George Casey

Comments BUMP!

Administer justice “government”.

List of grievances:

1) War (especially undeclared)
2) Debt slavery https://usdebtclock.org
3) Aiding and abetting invaders who harm our citizens...
4) Allowing a stealth jihadi to murder American service members at Ft. Hood and not administer justice.
5) POS anti-American politicians

100) (Your list may vary)

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

“that would make a martyr of him.”

That’s the same faulty logic that kept Bush from killing Muqtada al-Sadr in Iraq when he wanted to. Al Sadr is still causing trouble to this day. Better to kill them & not let anyone know what happened to their body.
