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.

“Nadal Malik Hasan, Suspected Fort Hood Shooter, Was Psychiatrist
Details Emerge: Alleged Gunman Trained in Disaster & Preventive Psychiatry”
By NED POTTER
Nov. 5, 2009

SNIPPET: “A military source was quoted by the Air Force Times as saying Hasan had recently been reassigned to Fort Hood from Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington. In 2009, sources tell ABC News, he completed a fellowship in Disaster and Preventative Psychiatry at the Center for Traumatic Stress there.”

Shep Smith asked the male cousin about the family’s heritage and the caller had to go and ended the interview and I missed the very end due to pure shock and anger.

He was bullied. It was the military's fault. The story line is developing.

BTW, how do we know that guy is really his cousin?

WHY on earth did he join the military then, he HAD to have known there was a high chance of being deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan!!!!! If he was opposed to that possibility, WHY did he join????!!!!

How sad I am for your loss, my neighbours.

Until the shackles of political correctness are tossed aside, both our countries will not be able to deal with the muslims all around us.

They are all called to jihad, and there is no way of knowing who will take take it upon themselves to act. They may all be peaceful, right up until the moment they act. This is scary.

Maybe not BS. We don’t know what his hobbies were. If you consider IPSC, IPDS, 3 Gun, Steel Challenge, Paintball, you get the picture.

The guy at Virginia had a high kill rate with no known official training.

Yes!

Jeesh .. from his cousin .. he didn’t like
guns .. had no interest in even going to
the firing range. AND YET HE’S ABLE TO
PERFECTLY KILL 11 PEOPLE WITH 2 GUNS ???

And he was picked on because of his
ethnicity .. why didn’t he get out ?

Something’s not right here .. the 2 soldiers
who were taken into custody have been released.

Shep: there was never any factual information that
there were 2 others involved.

Then why were they suspects .. with one barricaded ?

Very strange ... more than strange.

But what I know: he should’ve NEVER been allowed
to remain in our military ..

My thoughts too. Possibly they were unarmed?
