Uh uh, they talking about the gang activity. Honore can whitewash all he wants to but that's been a problem in recent years. But they don't know if that's even a factor here. | |

Cnn just said his name is Malik Nadal Hassan This is really terrible-my heart goes out to the soldiers/families/employees at Fort Hood I use to live on Fort Bragg and I know how it is when a post is locked down for a long period of time. | |

They usually work alone.... any killings I can think of involving any military men have always been alone... ~~~~~ Oh that voice...incredible....there should be a musical instrument called George Michael... ~~~~~ | |

It's interesting that a tragedy like this occurs just as the President is going to deploy more troops | |

tinaz said: SCNDLS said: Whatchu mean? What we discussed earlier...it just isnt the "norm" of american soldiers... Yeah, but these guys are under some unprecedented stress so nothing surprises me at this point. Plus IF this guy and/or the collaborators are of Middle Eastern descent it could be something more than just soldiers "snapping" That would actually explain the multiple gunmen angle. | |

Yes-I think this sounds like more than soldier frustration-something a terribly wrong. | |

I need him to do what he said he'd do. Deploying more troops isn't changing a thing. I think Texas has lost more troops than any other state. I can't even watch the news cuz everyday they talk about another local kid 18, 19, 20 years old killed in Iraq or Afghanistan. | |

Unless a person is military or has been military they cannot understand the stress that these men and women and their families face daily. The whole thing is just sad. | |

So sad to die at this age. I'm hoping that the President does not deploy anyone else-guess we will see. | |

My brother's ex-marines, sister navy, lots of cousins serving, and they weren't even American when they joined. So, I understand the sacrifice they make too well. So it pisses me off that our soldiers are being placed in a futile, no win situation. | |
