Ft. Hood Shooting News Conference.
Good info...I heard in both legs.
Good question. You’ll have to ask the weenies in the Pentagon who are in charge of diversity and sensitivity...
I just found an article that was not vague about her wounds. Her brother [a good source] said she was shot three times. In the legs and the wrist.
Ooops, sorry, I forgot this is “no tell”...this was a Lesbian in a beret with glasses and a deep voice from the shots for the gender change transition.
FN’s newest contribution the handgun’s evolution is named the Five-seveN®. This 20-round pistol fires a 5.7mm bullet that will defeat most body armor in military service around the world today. Essentially, the Five-seveN® represents a quantum leap forward in the handgun’s suitablity for close engagements by delivering the type of performance that was previously confined to rifles or carbines. Elements of this performance include:
High magazine capacity: The Five-seveN® comes standard with 20-round magazine.
High stopping power: The Five-seveN® fires the 5.7x28mm SS190 Ball round which reliably penetrates Kevlar helmets and vests as well as CRISAT protection.
High hit probability: The Five-seveN’s® extremely low recoil impulse results in virtually no muzzle climb, thereby facilitating fast and controllable follow-up shots.
Yet, the Five-seveN® is:
Light and ergonomic: Weighing 30% less than most 9mm pistols, the smoothly-contoured Five-seveN® is comfortable to carry and quick to deploy.
Fully safe: Due to its double-action firing mechanism, the Five-seveN® offers no inherent risk of accidental discharge during transportation. Furthermore, all of its safety devices are automatically reengaged following each firing cycle.
The Five-seveN® fires the SS190 5.7x28mm ball round. This projectile will perforate any individual protection on today’s battlefield including the PASGT kevlar helmet, 48 layers of kevlar body armor and the CRISAT target (titanium and kevlar). The SS190’s conventional design allows it to be manufactured on existing production lines, and its lead-free composition eliminates range contamination.

Thanks for posting those comments - yes - I saw that and was on that thread when those comments were posted.
I dearly hope that FReeper is not a fake and is in touch with the FBI as they claimed.
If what he said is true, Hasan had practiced shooting - at least 400 rounds - in the weeks leading up to this event - showing it was a PREMEDITATED, PLANNED, ATTACK - not a sudden psychotic episode as the propaganda outlets are putting out.
Cannot believe the press conference I just heard. Expected the guy to break out in the song Kum By Ya at any minute.
How can you get PTSD when you haven’t been in combat?
You have to understand that every one of these guys has no choice but to exactly as they are instructed by the White House. And, in a situation like this, I’d bet they’re getting calls directly from Rahm Emmanuel multiple times each day.
Would put his recent advancement to Major more believable, considering that doctors (for the most part) start out as captains.
The SS190 ammo is not legal for civilian sale in the US.
Nope, leadership ...the beauracratic organization at the top —of the whole ARMY.!!
have a feeling this guy wouldn’t have gone this far in the Marines.
Yeah... you were just the bait... LOL...
Something is deathly wrong in this country, I’m actually a bit afraid. This era of Obama is getting darker. PTSD?! He’s a frikkin MASS MUDERER/TERRORIST. What’s next, is the msm soon going to call him a hero? I can’t believe this crap anymore.
This is like public schools passing a big dummy to the next grade except this killed 14 and wounded 31!!!Arrest these traitors that did this!!
exactly.
btw - i also heard that he had been treated for alcoholism
I do understand that. But it’s not a good thing in a situation like this. If they can’t stand up to the WH on this, then what if they were asked to do something worse than this??
Ah - thanks for that link.
Shot 3 times.
Had to have surgery.
What a fearless heroine!
(We raise them tough here in NC!)
I gather that you are being sarcastic. But yes, that will be the next thing that will be grabbed on to by the MSM. “The cause of the shooting is not Islam, it is the availability of high-powered weapons”.
BTW - the weapon FN-57 CAN be used with “armor piercing” bullets. (The quotes are there since grandpa’s .30-06 deer rifle also shoots “armor piercing” bullets.) However, they are only sold to folks in government and police forces.
Hmmm - I wonder how a Major in the military might be able to get his hands on thi restricted ammunition.
The last time I heard that was from the media, about 20 minutes after the second tower fell.
