U.S. SOLIDIER
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
When I was in Iraq one of the soldiers I worked with was a Moslim and was told to be very careful around him I laughed it off but maybe I should not have been so flippant around him.
Correction to my correction: The soldier’s name is Nidal Malik Hasan, a psychiatrist who was a recent transfer from Walter Reed.
The Nadal Malik Hasan suspect was dead...Or this is what the news seems to be reporting. Never did hear the names of the two other alleged suspects.
Yeah I heard that.....Also heard from political mouth piece from Texas, about 15 minutes ago, that at least one of the U.S. soldier suspects, were from JORDAN...
I’m more confused after the presser than I was before. All that was discussed was Husan’s two handguns and how he would have had to reload multiple times in order to fire as many shots were fired. Therefore, he’s saying Husan was the only shooter, but he also talked about one or more in custody.
The guy showing as the shooter is a white raghead. Some other guy they were showing earlier was black.
Shep on now, reports they have confirmation Husan dead, two in custody that are still being investigated. No names or any other info on the two in custody.
Seems like something weird going on under the radar.
Yeah, I was talking about the members of the military from that generation and not the even larger amount that protested against their nation's fight against communism and continue to spread it today on college campuses. Good job, you got it on the first guess. /do I even need a sarc tag?
Looks like those in Texas, and the news geeks are backing away from the multiple shooters story.
You have your numbers reversed and don’t know history. The boomers brought a conservative revival and brought in President Reagan, If you look at the most destructive legislation, Supreme Court decisions, Presidents, institutional changes, destruction of the CIA, women’s movement etc. most of them happened between about 1935 and 1975.
The first presidential election that all boomers were old enough to vote in was 1984, the year that Reagan won a crushing landslide, even boomer Sarah Palin voted in that one.
I have one question. Has Al Qaeda infiltrated our Armed Forces? Is THAT what we have just witnessed?
Shep reported a couple minutes ago that the two in custody had been released.
Was Hasan American-born?
He received poor work evaluations at Walter Reed and was being deployed to Iraq. He didn’t want to go. Perhaps, like another muzzie we know, he arrogantly thought he shouldn’t have to follow the same standards and rules the rest of us do. He reportedly thought the muzzie soldiers should stand up against our soldiers in Iraq. I wonder if the other two were muzzie buddies who feel the same way so they’re under scrutiny now but didn’t take action in this event today?
I wonder if the other two (from Jordan?) are Hasan’s raghead buddies but were non-actors in today’s shootings.
No, the first presidential election boomers were old enough to vote in was ‘68. Boomers were born from 1945 to 1960. The voting age was 21 in almost all states until it was standardized to 18 via the 26th amendment, which was ratified in 1971.
1945 + 21=1966. 1966 was not a presidential election year, but 1968 was. Obviously those who had turned 21 in time to vote in 1966 could vote for other federal and state offices.
The FIRST presidential election that all boomers could vote in was 1980, not 1984. The last of the boomers reached voting age in 1978.
Palin isn’t a boomer. She’s too young.
Was no other shooters...The only shooter is dead, and appears was born/raised in Virginia.
NOW WE KNOW WHY THE HUGE NEWS CONFERENCE DELAY...IT’S CYA!
The feds were watching this guy **months** ago, regarding *mulitiple* bomb threats.
Boomers were born from 1946 to 1964, Sarah Palin is a boomer.
1984 was the first presidential election that all boomers could vote in.
Census Bureau: In 2006, the oldest of the baby boomers, the generation born between 1946 and 1964, will turn 60 years old.
Right. I know that. What I was speculating about was why the other two were in custody at all. Supposedly one (or both?) is from Jordan. So, I’m just wondering if there had been some sort of conspiracy involving what happened today or other events since the other two were being looked at.
For years and years the boomers were described as those born 1945-1960. If they want to redefine those dates now, I don’t care.
No they weren’t, you just remembered wrong. It is a generation, not a 15 year period.
Two handguns..killed and injured all those?
