They probably would have been reprimanded for sounding the alarm. Damned if they did, damned if they didn’t.

[Paladin2]

What medical specialty seems to attract more than it’s share of wackos?

[Lancey Howard]

Small consolation for the dead.
Anyway, these officers would have been “reprimanded” had they dared to bring the killer Muslim’s behavior to anybody’s attention in the first place. Damned if you do, etc.

[chickadee]

What a crock - those guys were not allowed to say that a Muslim was incompetent just like we are not allowed to say that Obama is incompetent. Telling the truth brands you as a racist. Their careers would have been over.

[PGR88]

No way any officer could win with this situation. Any accusations of this guy would have been declared “racist.” Sounds like ass-covering by the Army.

[MuttTheHoople]

Which’ll probably mean 5 Privates, 3 specialists, and a Corporal will go to Leavenworth for 20 years each.

[Tea Party Reveler]

Their parasitic leaders would have immediately used any complaint as the basis for a “discrimination” complaint against them and they would use it to advance their own careers!

Let’s see if anybody now makes a complaint against a Muslim in the ranks for being a suspected Jihadist! I doubt it!

[Sacajaweau]

But the most blatant comment came AFTER the shooting; "Let's not rush to any conclusions."

Hmmm Who said that???

[Elsiejay]

That would instead be failure to acknowledge and warn.

[Dick Bachert]

Anyone think General Casey will get gigged for his remarks?

Political Correctness:

”A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”

By spreading this definition around, perhaps we can employ one of the more effective methods of deflating and defeating the fools who practice and promote it: RIDICULE.

Unless stopped – and soon – PC will DESTROY Western Civilization -- if it hasn’t already.

PASS IT ON!!

THEN PASS THE KOOL AID!!

A Pentagon review last year found that Hasan's supervisors at Walter Reed Army Medical Center where he worked expressed serious concerns about his questionable behavior and poor judgment but failed to heed their own warnings. It said the Army psychiatrist's supervisors continued to give him positive performance evaluations that kept him moving up through the ranks despite worries about his strident views on Islam and worries about his competence.

When the shootings first happened, there were news reports that [while at Walter Reed] he was assigned to give a presentation within his specialty. Instead, he gave a rambling talk about how it was the duty of all good Muslims to kill Infidels ...

His behavior was reported immediately to superiors by other personnel who had attended the presentation - the superiors DID NOTHING !!!

[dagogo redux]

Why will the Army not reprimand the CIC and top brass for creating this sort of climate in their ranks?

[mirkwood]

[philman_36]

Simply amazing! You create a culture of "ethnic diversity" where you punish anyone who reports something bad about "a minority" and then you punish them further when they don't do anything that might have made the minority appear in a bad light.

Catch-22. I must be insane.

[TalBlack]

Nine scapegoats to protect PC.

[Baynative]

This is just absolute insanity. If someone told me this in conversation, I wouldn't believe it. I still remember what happened to LtC Anthony Shaffer and the Able Danger Team for speaking up about factual evidence that wasn't PC.

Any officer that had dared to speak the truth about Hassan would have jeopardized their own career. Now they are being used as scapegoats.

[jpl]

Great. Now that they’re figured out who to blame, can we put this guy Hasan on trial please?
