It was at the base, there aren't many more details yet

You're at Fort Hood? My sister and her husband are stationed there. Fortunately they left early yesterday. Missed the shooting by about 10 minutes.

A Muslim army psychiatrist burst into a bout of Jihadi fit, shooting at soldiers lined up for signing for deployment in Iraq and Afghanistan, killing 12 and wounding 31. It appears to another perfect case of the familiar "Sudden Jihadi Syndrome" among Muslims...

Sudden Jihadi Syndrome ... yep.

Sudden Jihadi Syndrome ... yep.

Is that like the Twinkie defense only with extended mags and "Allāhu Akbar"?

I want each and every person who even touched this guy's fitreps to be investigated. I want to know what is wrong with military culture so that people feared to discuss this guy's admiration for militant Islam with his superiors. I want to know why none of this guy's colleagues in the Psych Dept. noticed that he was giving away all his stuff. :mad:

I want to know why the MSM isn't calling this what it is ... terrorism. :mad:

Because only people living in foreign countries and funded by foreign money can be "terrorists". Everybody else who terrorizes people for religious or political purposes is mentally ill, misguided, or reacting expectedly to the destructive hegemony of post-colonial Western culture.

And all we can do is sit by helplessly and watch as our country dissolves in front of us!

I hope that feeling like all we can do is sit and watch is some satisfaction to us when our country is actually gone. I know I'll be pretty damn ashamed when my kids ask me why I didn't do more to stop it. I don't know what the answer is, but if all we do is watch it happen without putting up some kind of fight, then we deserve exactly what we'll get.

So far the Obama train keeps rolling forward. The only peaceful solution I can think of other than talk is a tax strike.

We were too afraid to be called a bigot. We did not want to admit to ourselves that some peoples, some beliefs, some religions, some ideologies are completely incompatible with the American way of life. America is what it is. Being an American is what it is. Maybe it is time we realized that America cannot be all things to all people. We have allowed foreigners to reside in our country who would not hesitate to take up arms against the US should war breakout between their country and America. We have allowed religions to thrive that demand loyalty to theology over and above loyalty to America. We have killed America ourselves on the alter of PC.

We have a shot at turning this train wreck around with the 2010 elections. We are not as bad off as the Carter years but we are headed that way.
