At least 12 people were killed and 31 others were wounded in a mass shooting incident Thursday at Fort Hood, Texas, military officials said. The shooter was shot to death, they said.

More shots were reported later in the afternoon, reported NBC affiliate KCEN-TV of Waco, which said no further details were immediately available.

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.

Milly Land, who works at the base fitness center, said she was headed for the graduation ceremony at 2 p.m. at the Howze Theater when the campus was locked down. She went back to the fitness center. She said she spoke by phone with friends at the soldier processing center, who said a gunman walked in about 1:30, walked to the medical area of the processing center, and started shooting. A second gunman was shooting at the theater next door, she said.

Let’s see CAIR (et al) kissy-face their way out of this one.

Prayers for the injured and the dead. But no prayers for those connected to the shooter(s). God help them, because nobody else will.

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

The shooter was killed and two other suspects 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.

If you are Islamic, you may not serve in our military.

Period.

Someone’s private weblog says he is a convert to Islam.

No proof of this, just the statement.

Arabic name, multiple shooters, but no chance that it could be terrorism. That’s what they say, anyway.

I sure as hell wish our military would stop recruiting Muslims... The worst of the worse are black muslims.
