Thanks for the ping...I agree with you wholeheartedly and when hubby got home from slaving away on recruiting duty last night I told him I was really irritated at the way this guy's vet status was being reported. The implication that his Army service was the reason behind his murdererous spree just burns me up to no end!!
Especially the fact that they keep saying over and over he was stationed at Ft. Lewis which is a "major sniper training center" even though this guy never received sniper training and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the Army doesn't even have a sniper school at Lewis (I thought they were at Benning and Bragg). Then they're making a big deal over his expert marksman badge.
This guy has been out of the Army for 7-8 years!! Hubby is an expert marksman and was a sniper/AT section sgt in 3rd Ranger Batt and I don't see him running around killing people! This guy was a whacko Muslim with a grudge against his own country and evidence has been reported that he was not exactly a stellar soldier anyways. His service in the Army has nothing to do with his rampage anyways, IMO.

Exactly....your family is another example of the awesome Americans who regularly defend this nation and regularly die for it.
This guy couldn't even make it....dishonorable discharge.
There are far, far more like your husband than like this dirtbag John Mu'Mad.
