    from what i heard he was mad that he was being deployed to iraq he was supposedly a major to. i dont really think being muslim had anything to do with it, i wonder what was up with the other 2 guys they have in custody.

    Everyone keep powder dry.

    I have not heard what the shooter's religion was. Nor his ethnicity. All I know is he was a U. S. Army officer. It's WAY too early to begin drawing conclusions whether his religion (if any) or ethnicity had anything to do with the crime. By the same token, it's just as improper to rule out either religion or ethnicity as a contributing factor. After all, the enemy is identified by many as "fundamentalist islamists." So religion has some role in the middle eastern war. But whether it has anything to do with this awful crime is unknown at this point. Let's just stay tuned. We have no other information.

    The shooter was a nutcase who was afraid of being deployed. He told others on his post that the war in Iraq was unjust and that we should not be there. Apparently his Muslim beliefs were trumping his American oath to the US Army (which he made of his own free will). He had been in trouble at his previous post for making such statements as well. If we lived in a world that was still allowed to have balls, he would have been discharged from the armed services long ago.

    You can thank some touchy feely policy that doesn't let us dispatch idiots like this total piece of human shit for him still being in the Army.

    Actually, you must have. The story I saw said he had been a Muslim his whole life. I dont think his religious beliefs contradicted his oath, but his cowardice does. He is alive, not dead as reported earlier.

    Yes sir you did. Do you know what is totally bizarre considering relatively recent news? He did his undergrad at Virginia Tech. Seems like they breed psychos there. Did his residency at internship at Walter Reed, all on our dime.

    Several raido news reports stated that he had been given bad reviews over his attitude about the on going war in the middle east. Saying that it was wrong for the US to be over there murdering arabs... I'm sure it will all come out. Hell the kids that were Murdered aren't even cold yet!! MG

    I heard the interview with his cousin. Some bullshit about he wasn't afraid of going to Iraq/Afghanistan or something. I muttered to my wife ... yea, he obviously doesn't have a problem killing.


    /agree with usmcpmi, it will come out.

    Before I start throwing the race and religion cards I want more facts.
    This is tragic and yes I am extremely pissed but I want my anger focused justly in the right directions.
    Reports vary right now and I suspect they will for days and possibly weeks.
    The shooter is alive and in military custody which may not be a safe place to be considering what he has done.
