Any RRC members at Fort Hood? Are we all safe and accounted for?

[Twisted_Dakota]

[wheelinscott]

[USAFXJ]

12 dead 31 injured, a major was the gunman, and not to stereotype but the major had a muslim name

I dont think we have anybody in Ft Hood. I am right next to and went to Killeen for dinner tonight. Hate to say it, but it was the nicest trip to Killeen. It was empty. Everybody was still locked on base. All the restaurants were empty instead of a 1 hour wait. No traffic, nothing. Sucks for everyone though...

Oh, and the gunmen is alive, they shot him 4 times but he is alive and stable in the hospital.

 

[xxmidianxx]

He was a doctor, a Psych doctor no less. And he was going to be shipped out soon, like within a few months. I don't remember all the details.

 

[SpartyKrunk]

Well I'm glad he's alive; that way we can find out his motives for doing what he did.

 

[x2elite]

If he will ever say what his true motives were.

 

[MischiefMan]

If he truly knows what they were!

 

[xxmidianxx]

Ture MM, when one of the people that does the "treatments" needs to be treated... No telling what they are thinking. But those are the same people that can hide things the best.

 

[SpartyKrunk]

You have a point. But people will talk. Everybody has a breaking point. Even a Major.

 

[x2elite]

He will very likely talk, because most people who do stuff like that are proud of what they did. He had supposedly been under surveillance a while back for making antiamerican statements due to his muslim beliefs. At least that is what I heard on the news. They had said that he was unhappy with the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, and that he had made comments that he was "Muslim first, and American second." or something like that.

 

[SpartyKrunk]

Damn. So why the hell did he even join the Army? Add to that, how the hell did he make it so far up in rank?

 

[wheelinscott]

I just heard hes "ready" to talk whatever that means. or that hes is awake enouph to talk, so ill guess we will find out why soon. hopefully
