    As soon as I heard that the shooting was carried out by soldiers I knew one of 2 things. It was either a vet of the sand box who went over the edge or a follower of islam. Well they just announced at least one of the 3 was a convert to islam ..... you know the religion of peace(sic).

    My gut told me it was in the name of Islam as soon as I knew it was more than one!

    Maj. Molique Adat Hassan is the shooter. Not sure if it is spelled right.

    I'll wait to hear the final verdict before making a decision as to why it occurred. I thought I heard on the news they were scheduled to be deployed. Perhaps that was the reason and religious convictions had nothing to do with it. Whatever the cause, it's a terrible deed and my heart goes out to the victims' families and friends as well as to those that were wounded in the melee.

    I just relayed a bumper sticker. Not my political view as to for or against. An observation. I also observe the stock market. I observe the grocery prices. The gas prices. Taxes. ?????? That's my survival duty. To observe, be aware and make decisions based on information.

    You're not sucking up very well at the moment. You know that, right?

    And the shooter was a "mental health caregiver". A shame, there were alot of soldiers that he has "treated". Who knows what he really did. May he rot in a very warm place on a spit with ***.

    General Cone is addressing the press right now. The shooter IS NOT DEAD. He was shot and is in stable condition and in custody.
