This is horrible.

One point that I would like to bring up though is that the shrinks are the craziest SOBs themselves.

Very horrible and also very strange.  We can expect Obama to politicize this.  I wonder how they will spin it.

OK, I'm going to put on my "politically incorrect" hat now, and I don't give a damn, because I'm gonna say what most are probably thinking.

...Terrorist act?

Is it mere coincidence that the shooter has a middle eastern name?  Why is it that the first thing that came to my mind prior to hearing "the rest of the story" is "I wonder if this was perpetrated by an Islamic person or sympathizer?"

QUACK, QUACK  CONFIRMED!!!!
 
These people are so brainwashed and programmed by their religion the only way to successfully fight them short of annihilation is to use their religion against them.  Make sure that they know that we will do EVERYTHING in our power to prevent them from their promised 27 virgins.  Even if it means picking up body parts with tweezers to desecrate!  War is war damn it and we're the only ones who even try to play by rules.  It cost us dearly every time.  We need to make it perfectly clear that we will not hesitate to use any such tactics if our opponents cross that line!
 
As far as Hasan is concerned, pack that sucker in pig sh*t before burying him!

I imaging the announced he was dead to prevent an angry mob.... and then retracted it now saying he is alive.  Can you imagine what they are going to do to this guy if they get ahold of him?

Bolstering Ted's thoughts, read these excerpts today, source was on-line World News so accept with a grain of salt:
 
 
 
"Lt.-Gen. Robert Cone told NBC's Today show that the shooter shouted "Allahu Akbar!" - Arabic for "God is great" - before he began firing."
 

"U.S. military officials said Hasan had come to their attention at least six months before the attack because of internet postings that appeared to come from him that discussed suicide bombings and other threats. Officials are still working to confirm Hasan's connection to the postings, but an official investigation was never opened.

One of the postings that authorities reviewed is a blog that equates suicide bombers with a soldier throwing himself on a grenade to save the lives of his comrades.

"He is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for a more noble cause," the posting says."

Of course soon we will be hearing how it is our countries and the military's fault that he became the way his is. 

The media will sympathize more with him and how hard life must have been being a muslin in the US military over all the people he killed and their families. 

Same damn story every time some whack job does this.
