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.

Regardless, that does not make the statement by the other poster invalid, anymore than saying people who are paranoid don’t have anyone out to get them.

I haven’t asked that “next question” you want to forestall, r9etb. That wasn’t my point.

The fact that the FBI can’t call this terrorism, what is their definition of terrorism then

Maybe the current administration considers it a legitimate act of war.

Second Gunman In Custody At Army’s Fort Hood -Report
Last update: 11/5/2009 4:41:18 PM
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
A second gunman is in custody after a shooting at the Army’s Fort Hood in Texas in which at least seven people were killed and 12 wounded, reports KCEN-TV of Waco. The report comes about two hours after a first suspect was captured, shortly after gunfire broke out.
Authorities say the gunmen were dressed in fatigues, though it’s not confirmed whether they are military personnel. It’s also not known if the victims were military personnel or civilians.
The incident reportedly began at Fort Hood’s theater and then moved to the Soldier Readiness Processing Center, Killeen City Public Information Officer Hillary Shine told Fox News. A graduation ceremony was scheduled to take place Thursday.

Obama won’t be able to address the public until AFTER his script is loaded into the teleprompter.

Hannity just said that the FBI is reporting that there is no connection to terrorism.

Now, how the hell would they know that already? All the shooters aren't even in custody!
