Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer.

The suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.

The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.

The gunman used two handguns, Cone said. He wasn't sure if the shooter reloaded the weapons during the attack.

I also doubt that it would be 3 soldiers acting together. Getting even 2 GIs to agree on that type of action would seem to be pretty low odds.

Even one shooter could mean ROP, think of the recruiting station shooting earlier this year. CNN near gleeful that this could be a soldier who snapped. They're talking ad nauseam about the "stress" of combatants.

The Dumbasses at Commie News will have to change their stupid mindset soon on this story. Their BS template is not holding up.

I've been on bases multiple times for military ceremonies.

This is just so horrible. I can't even get my mind around it.

Remember Debby Wasserman Shultz? According to her, US soldiers are not "real victims" of "hate crimes." Obama just signed a "hate crimes" bill and guess which "classes" are "protected?"

Centani was also kidnapped by muslim terrorists and forced to convert to islam.

I’d say Mr. Centani might be a candidate for stressful behavior.

An act of war that will be treated as an “armed criminal action with no greater significance”.

“doing something about it”

i have mixed feelings about that - der fuhrer might just 'not waste' this crisis to do who knows what

reality it is big, because an attack on a US Military base SHOULD be viewed as an act of war.

But, the current leadership will treat it as a law enforcement matter, “prosecute” the perps, and call it “doing something about it”.


And putting panties on their heads would be considered torture.

Just let me near those killers and they'll know what real torture is. I'm a military mom.

CNN should be the victim of American outrage.
How dare them ASSUME these murderers are Soldiers.
As the Congressman said:
1 shooter maybe
2 not likely
3 absolutely not unless three got to gather to PLAN an attack.

As a Marine, back when, we never had weapons unless we were involved in direct training. The weapons were issued out of the armory!

isn’t that normally one of the very first things said?

Only if they know that it is not a terrorist attack. They clearly don't know yet.

Prayers up for the families of the dead, and for those wounded. Text messaged my son at Ft. Benning to be careful - this could be something that spreads - situational awareness important more than ever.

Sleeper islamists go through basic and AIT together, get stationed at the same base (Fort Hood has 2 Armor divisions), coordinate their plan from there.

Dunno - just saying.
