Deadly Shooting at Fort Hood

CNN.com - Breaking News, U.S., World, Weather, Entertainment & Video News

I'm hearing 2 shooters, 7 dead, and 30 wounded. This is just horrible.

They're not sure, but the gummen were wearing uniforms. Unlikely that it's terrorists, though not confirmed.

From what I have seen they don't know. There is just no way to stop people when they want to do stuff like this and I hope they shot the one gun man on the run.

Kinda like a Full Metal Jacket deal. Apparently they have had an issue/history of over working soldiers.

I wonder if the guys joined with this in mind or they just one day decided to do this. Pretty sad.

Who knows. What's becoming evident is that we're having more and more domestic terrorist activity each day. This is really sad. They're saying one had an arabic sounding last name. Which will be unfortunate if it's true.

Here we are trying to deal with Afghanistan and Iraq, and our fucking soldiers aren't even safe on a U.S. military base.

Very sad. RIP.

They say an Army Major was one of the shooters that died. That's pretty high rank for a pre-planner type.

Why would it be unfortunate?

I think it'll lead to more profiling and suspicions of arabic speaking/sounding people that are U.S. citizens. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
