What a horrible tragedy. I hope the shooter is stopped soon. May the victims rest in peace, and may the victims recover quickly.

Heard that a LEO is either one of the dead/wounded. At least three shooters. One in custody reported to be a 40 year old male armed with an AR style rifle.

Complete hear say at this point, but I am hearing that one of the shooters was an Army Major and wait for it, a muslim.

We should have him deployed straight to hell via a firing squad. If any case merits that, this is it. The fact that it was coordinated with three shooters throws that insanity defense right out the door.

11-05-09, 06:15 PM #13More at: Twelve Soldiers Killed in Fort Hood Shooting - ABC NewsThe suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.
Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson, R-Texas, told Fox News that military sources informed her that the gunman was about to be deployed to Iraq.
The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.
Hasan allegedly opened fire and killed 11 people on the base before he was shot, bringing the total number of fatalities to 12.
The general said there were "eyewitness accounts of more than one shooter," and the others were tracked to an adjacent facility.That which does not kill me, better start fucking running.

Thats my old post, I patrolled there for 5 1/2 years as an MP/SRT member. That post always was a wild place. As for that major, he was also a damn shrink to boot. Pretty bad when a shrink goes on a shooting rampage. Back in the early 90's when I was stationed there, we had a bunch of soldiers (and civilians) murdered off post at Luby's cafeteria (21 or 22 killed that day I believe).
I hope that the other people involved rot in hell.

What really pissses me off is the fact these folks are refering to the DA Police Officers as contractors. We are not contractors we are Federal Police Officers employed by the Army.

Isn't the base basically another "gun-free zone", except for MP's and practice range?
As dumb as that sounds, I remember having to go back and put my gun in my motel room when I visited Ft Hood years ago, but may have just been for civilians.
I should add, the sign didn't just specify civilians - it said absolutely no guns permitted beyond the gate. And I also saw a some soilders running around with empty holsters. No one had a visible gun except the (very) few MP's I saw.
