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.

I agree! There is something wrong with this story! Two hand guns - a room full of soldiers - and he shoots and kills 12 and wounds 31 or so? Come on!

Something is very wrong -

If the perp didn't want the war and the killing that goes with it, why did he join the military in the first place.....or later ask for a discharge on conscientous objector status.....or shoot himself because of his inner turmoil instead of taking all the innocents with him?

Perhaps the military paid for his schooling, and he had to serve a minimum number of years otherwise have to pay it back?

JUst wanted to give another update.

It does appear that one member of the 135th Expeditionary Sus­tainment Command out of Birmingham, AL has been injured. His name is Maj. Hoyer (did not get first name from my friend) and he was shot twice, but is in stable condition at this time.

Some of those soldiers would have taken him out with their own bodies.

And they said that it was police who killed him, right?

Doesn't add up AT ALL.

Yes- you heard that...but I’d heard that over an hour ago and then it was reported no one else was picked up.

NOW we hear again- another picked up.

Reports coming and going...be awhile to pin down the facts.

She is survived by her three sons, Nidal , Anas, and Eyad; her parents; six sisters; two brothers; 29 nieces and nephews; 2 great-nieces; and scores of extended family.

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

My first thought too. Shep might have been punked. Notice how cousin suddenly had to end the call when asked if Malik was from Jordan?

God forgive me but I hope his 72 virgins are pigs.

His 72 virgins are former lesbian nun schoolteachers and he is being continuously beaten all over with sharp rulers as they roast.

Chrissy Matthews is interviewing someone who is BLAMING all the stories he heard from his patients for him fearing his deployment overseas and thus flipping out.

Then they "chat" about how WWII vets never tell any of their stories to anybody -- but poor widdle Dr. Hasan heard SO many horrible stories about Iraq & Afghanistan that he lost it.

Why does the FCC permit such incipid chatter to be nationally broadcast??

Cindy, he indeed could have used his pyschiatric knowledge to mess with many soldiers’ heads. That’s my belief. I hope all of his patients get screened and checked, and if needed help reverse any damage he could have caused. Pronto!

Sounds like the second suspect was actually fighting him and has been released.

Pray for America and Ft Hood
