Deadly Shooting at Fort Hood

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.

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.

R.I.P. Very sad .

damn shame.. went to the corner store tonight and the guy who owns it (arabic guy) was like these fucking idiots, you can't trust anybody.. that was refreshing, not to sound ethnocentric

I think Naser is an Egyptian name.

Good men have been shot and you're worried about fucking profiling?

You're right, I totally lost my head when I posted that. I completely regret posting that last bit and responding to 70Chip. My apologies to all in this thread and to the deceased and wounded at Fort Hood.

Please let's not politicize this thread or let this spin into something that would further dishonor the men and women involved or I'll ask the Mods to close it. Thanks guys.

And my apologies to you personally TTE. Let's just drop it and move on.

Imagine that, a man named Hasan killed Americans...shouted "Praise God" in Arabic and mowed people down.

I know it's not the PC thing to say, but profiling has its place.

From what I saw on the news last night there were several times that he gave signs of having issues but nothing was ever done. I actually think it more of a Political Correctness and not wanting to look like they where profiling. It a shame because now 13 people are dead and 3o injured.

Maybe we should kick people with Muslim sounding names out of the military or at the very least watch them closely? We don't need their types any ways.


+1 for closing the thread.
