But not American soldiers. When asked if ordinary soldiers nearby had been carrying their service weapons, Fort Hood spokesman Lt. Gen Robert Cone said piously, "We do not carry weapons. This is our home." Defense is out-sourced to military police, or even — oh the indignity! — to civilian policemen.

My son was in the Navy when 9/11 happened, stationed on a sub base in Washington state. He and his sub crew which was in dry dock at the time were required to protect the Hood Canal Bridge. This is a big bridge that any boat must pass under on their way to the sub base. He called us on his cell phone on his watch and we asked him if he had a gun?

No, he replied but he did have night vision goggles and a cell phone!!! "What to call 911 in case you see terriosts coming to blow up a sub?" "Yep", was his reply!!

Another Moderate Muslim...

How many Muslims per-capita in this country as a percentage ...

now lets figure the number in the military,

now lets figure Muslim officers,

now boil it down to a military psychiatrist as the perpetrator.

It's amazing how so few kill so many innocents while praising Allah. That's the bottom line.

Until the MAINSTREAM MUSLIM COMMUNITY STANDS UP and decries these atrocities I will continue to draw my own conclusions based on undeniable facts.

Those murdered and maimed soldiers deserve justice not politically correct justification.

This medieval insanity has reached the breaking point... worldwide.

Is that beautiful or what? It’s good when good people equip themselves to fight their enemies well.

The people on base should have the same freedom to carry as other Texans.

Might have saved a few lives if this was the Army’s policy.

Look at how times have changed. After Pearl Harbor, Japanese and Nisei living in the U.S. were summarily rounded up and kept in camps. Some may have been deported, I don’t know. At that point, those individuals had done nothing but their counterparts overseas had.

Today, after 30+ years of islamic jihad against the U.S., we have more muslims residing here than ever. Our military freely admits them, apparently without much background check or monitoring, and I think most macabre of all... our Wounded Warriors at Walter Reed MC, maimed for life by jihadist were sent to THIS jihadist for counseling. Now, that is crazy!!

Muzzies are only loyal to allah ,, they pledge NO allegence to any geographic boundaries ,,, just to islam . It is naive of anyone to think that a muslim would support a mission against any of their muzzie buddies in the mid-east .

What is the real horror is that neither Party or the Prez will take a stand against PC baloney. They simply refuse to give into common sense. In a war, protection should be in the forefront not offended feelings. I am going to write the GOP leadership about this and see if they respond.

Remind me again what that word Islamofascists use to express it’s okay to lie to infidels ... CAIR cannot be trusted to speak the truth when addressing non-mooselimbs.

“This was jihadist terror, coldly calculated and carried out.” No, this was not an act of terrorism, this was an act of war by a jihadi mooselimb serving his demon allah. It is time to stop pretending the islamonazis aren’t out to kill Americans in America. The jihadi killed soldiers on a military base. The killer was a soldier in the army of the demon allah.

Maybe TWfromTEXAS can answer this. He got upset at me for expressing the same opinion.

You’re right: act of war it was and is.

Are you going to declare war on mental hospitals? That guy doesn't represent Muslims - they disclaimed him.

Just exactly how was one man able to kill and wound over 40 soldiers on a military base? That's the question that needs to be answered.

OK I give up. Issue them all weapons and ammo. Give every 18 year old one the day they join. I'm all for it. HOWEVER when we get a bunch of people killed with those weapons you explain it. The Swiss and Israelis don't kill each other like we do so this should be interesting.

BTW unlike you, I carry all the time.

You might want to read about the Camp Logan Riot in my home town back when everyone carried.
