OMG!! What is wrong with people?

The investigators say there are three suspected gunmen and there have been 12 confirmed dead, including one of the gunmen. Headline news is reporting that the other two shooters have been arrested.

This is just awful, and my prayers go out to these families.

I noticed, and when I read the name, I froze for a second or two.

Hasan has made some comments in the past, that should have tipped someone off.

Last night, I thought they had said that he was killed, evidently he's still alive.

His name appears on radical Internet postings. A fellow officer says he fought his deployment to Iraq and argued with soldiers who supported U.S. wars. He required counseling as a medical student because of problems with patients

While an intern at Walter Reed, Hasan had some "difficulties" that required counseling and extra supervision, said Dr. Thomas Grieger, who was the training director at the time.

At least six months ago, Hasan came to the attention of law enforcement officials because of Internet postings about suicide bombings and other threats, including posts that equated suicide bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the lives of their comrades.

Hasan got into frequent arguments with others in the military who supported the wars, and had tried hard to prevent his pending deployment

This is what pisses me off...All these "red flags" and it takes 12 dead people for an investigation to happen

I work with a lady whose son was stationed there until Wednesday. Her son got transferred. She and her husband are helping them move. The day before the shootings they were standing in the building where it took place. Pretty scary.

Thoughts and prayers to all the families that lost loved one's yesterday. So sad.

Thank your nephew for his service and sacrifice. Despite most of the media's tendencies to play-down patriotism nowadays, there's still a great many of us who are damned grateful for brave men and women like your nephew.

Prayers that his stint has some impact and that he returns safe and sound.

Unfortunately with the policies we now have, no one is allowed to use religion and heritage to profile these people. The flags that go up must first be covered in "INNOCENT RED BLOOD" [hence the term red flag]. Condolences to the families of all killed and wounded.

The "red flags" that appear to be quite evident here aren't "religion" in nature dumass
