Deadly shooting at US Army base

I know there's a thread for this in the AR lounge, but it's beyond sketchy, just "Hey, who did it?" and being in the AR Lounge means its probably going to get bombarded with retardedness (already starting) and pictures (inevitable). Most of the Lounge tards tend to avoid the News section.

Anyways, looks like it was one guy, a Major Malik Hassan, a military psychatrist, who at the moment did it on the grounds he didn't want to go to Iraq. He was eventually shot several times but is still in a stable condition.

Most unusual case. I wonder what the true motive will end up being..

Guns man, the military should not be allowed to carry firearms or this would never have happened. That and allowing a bunch of Halik Hasan sounding ****ers infiltrate the military.

Well like I said to Moose, what are you gonna do? Stop muslims from joining the military?? Im not trying to make excuses for this prick, but rather than people go on some massive rage whine about "muslims blahblah" what do people suggest we do about any of this??

I mean it's looking as if the FBI suspected this guy for awhile, so why the **** was no one warned about this guy?! That there looks like a failing. Its like the british autistic guy that hacked into the pentagon database, rather than people go on about cyber terrorism, etc...people should be asking why and how he managed to do that. That easily could have been the Chinese.

This is all about the Middle East. And the sooner we leave, the sooner this crap will stop.

You have got to be kidding me Flagg. Do you honestly think that terrorism will stop the second we leave Afghanistan & Iraq? Remember the USS Cole & all the attacks on our embassies prior to President Bush & these wars.

It's ridicules to think he killed and wounded "our" troops because he did not want to go to war. AH, Then get out of the military if you don't want to go to war.

He is a Muslim and has a duty to convert or destroy all non-believers. He is still alive so he'll have to wait a while for his 72 virgins!!!!

I really don't want to hear that spin about "if we don't fight them there, we'll be fighting them here" because by that reckoning we'll have to stay in the Middle East, pretty much forever. Do you want that, sending wave after wave of soldiers dying for political propaganda.

I don't care about that prick, if he's on dialisis for the rest of his life then **** him. We DO need to get out the Middle East, and then we need to stop all aid being sent there as well. Afghanistan is the second poorest country in the world.

What will happen when we leave Iraq and Afghanistan is the moment we're gone, the militia and Taliban will sieze control again. So what's the difference in leaving now or 10 years time, besides saving a ton load of cash and a further 5000 soldiers?

Sieze control again?? I'd say they have control .

[TITANIUM]

It will be interesting of what ends up happening to this guy.

Texas, after all has capitol punishment.

He's going to wish he was dead, after all the "pending investigation" shit is over.

Now, due to the fact that it happened on a military base, it would be handled internally.

But, it still happened, all the same.

I remember reading about the Russians and sleeper cells in the 80's.(actually it goes back quite further than that).

Flagg, I don't have a answer for you. I feel there is not one.

Best

Nah, continue to accept anything that way when you are on the battlefield, you don't know who the ****ing enemy is.
