Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer.

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

The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, 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.

My local station here in S.A. keeps trying to reaffirm that there are two soldiers in cutody and that Hood is a deployment base so that could give a reason why they went bonkers(huh???)

FNC’s Shep has been given a name of the dead shooter, will not disclose it this time nor will Shep’s guest.

Lots of Malik Hasan/Hassan entries in Facebook, wonder if the shooter had a page?

Shep and KayBailey talking secretly about how "the name tells us a lot, doesn't it?" although Shep doesn't want to give the name until the military confirms it.

Ah, a convert no less; the most dangerous type of jihadi. In a sane version of America, all madrassas and mosques would be shut down immediately (should have happened after 9/11). Pretty snap judgement by the FBI, huh? NO WAY this could be terrorist related; especially a plot by three jihadis! /s Also, when will our military commanders take a long, hard look at the enlistment of muslims?

This political correctness bullsh*t will be the death of us all.

Not Arab, a convert to Islam. Could be any color.

Um, I'm gonna guess that color is black.

This POS is so rude, so callous, so arrogant, so narcissistic, and so dumb, there’s no way he can drop an “I, me” moment to focus on our troops.

Exactly. That’s all I can say, though, or my post will get removed again. I don’t know why because I said nothing more than what has already been said.

Shepard Smith refuses to utter Malik Hassan’s name.

Instead, he’s talking about the shooter was upset about being deployed — he’s making up alternate motives for this terrorist.

Shepard Smith is a scumbag.

Kay Bailey just ripped it for lots of us Texans by refusing to SAY THE RAGHEADS NAME on FNC.

Guess she figgers lots of her prospective black voters have sympathy with the GD ragheads.

He's not "comfortable" saying it, but says IT TELLS US A LOT.

Strange. Both Hutchinson and Smith are reacting weird about the name. Perp was a Major in the Army about to deploy and was upset. Convert to Islam

Hutchison is nauseating. Helping frame the official govt response of sadness but overall tolerance for such an act.

Obama didn’t look like he was shaken ONE BIT!!

KBH looking sad, saying she has info the perp was upset about going to Iraq.

Fox still not saying the name. Reminds me of them not calling it for Bush when he won re-election.

Bah. The news outlets in the country suck.

ummm...that’s not even the right name there on Facebook. The shooter’s middle name started with an “n”. Don’t get someone in trouble who is not connected. Although that guy’s connections are rather “interesting.”

“Hasan”

I’m wondering if that’s a Pakistani name.

Fox News is sure being cagey about the shooter’s name. KBH was a wimp as usual. This was not about the man not wanting to go to Iraq..I don’t care what they say. Why would there be ‘others’ involved?

You can almost see a scenario where a bunch of misfits decide to go postal instead of going to Afghanistan under the guise of “I’m going to get killed anyway. Let’s make the news”.... Columbine style.

The Virginia Tech gunman had no real motive. He just wanted to make a big “noise”.

~~~~

Wow .. your words may be ... and I mean MAY be .. truer
than you know, since Sen. Hutchinson is reporting the
shooter is an officer .. a Major .. who was about to
deploy to Afghanistan and unhappy about it. He
apparently killed others who were also to be deployed.

God bless our war weary military .. SO so tragic if
true. Tragic in any event, but if this was a soldier
who was pushed to his limit with another deployment
and perhaps the knowledge of an uncaring cic and
worthless representation in Congress .. my heart just breaks.

Hutchinson says he had apparently spoken about being
upset that he was going.

You know what Oblama will do now .. God help us all.

Oh jeeze .... the Major from VA CONVERTED TO THE
RELIGION OF PIECES!!!! Damn the all islamic cultist
BEASTS !!
