[history]
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.

A local Fox 4 feed says Kay Bailey Hutchison said the captured shooter was wounded in the shootout. They seemed to have heard 2 were captured very unclear.

Not to point out the obvious but, if this is indeed a terrorist attack, wouldn’t that make it the worst, if not the only one since 911?
None after 911 under Bush. Under Obama’s watch it could be a different story? You may all draw your own conclusions.

The Congressman that represents Fort Hood says to get on the base is difficult.
Bob Scales is saying there is no security and do not check for weapons.
Who is lying?

The shooter is on the base. Those of us out here do not need to know the description.
Those on the base will do their job without any tips from us.

I’m hearing they captured one, there either is or has been a fire fight with a second (who may have been killed), and they are still looking for/considering a third. Fog of war right now. We’ll, know more later.

I have to show my military ID to get on base and who ever is with me doesn't have too.
HOWEVER, Sometimes there is 100% ID check, which means EVERYONE in the vehicle must show their ID or sign in to where they are going.

If terrorists, pretty damn ballsy doing this at Ft. Hood, let alone in Texas. Dry run maybe? Hell, if they can do it in Texas, they can do it anywhere.

Thats actually vaguely plausible. The biggest Mexican drug gang consists of former Mexican soldiers that were trained by the USA in counter-insurgency tactics. Well-trained, well armed.The Zetas. Their leader was just killed in a raid a couple of days ago.

“No, anything Shep says is generally hogwash.
Foxnews however does not push rumors which is what you stated.”
After Shep’s reporting of the cooler full of dead bodies in hurricane Katrina I don’t believe a word he says.

Gen. Scales saying the gate guards are civilians,
and apparently you can get on the base with a
driver’s license and car registration. That doesn’t
sound right to me, but I swear that’s what I heard.

Boy, someone is going to have a lot of questions to answer given the fact that this is a military base, **during wartime**
Compound this if the shooters are actually terrorist, which seems likely, and not just 2 local types with a vendetta.

Obama was notified an hour ago.
Then went back to practice his golf swing......

After watching the routine during other events, I catch your drift. That statement is generally issued frustratingly early on IMO.

I remember Col. Hunt was saying the exact same thing on Fox during the DC Sniper killings. He was dead wrong.
To: ohioWfan
Ft. Dix came to mind when I heard about this. Two shooters, obviously, indicates coordination. We’ll see what motive was in the next day or two.
