In June, Fort Hood's commander, Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch, told CNN that he was trying to ease the kind of stresses soldiers face. He has pushed for soldiers working a day schedule to return home for dinner by 6 p.m., and required his personal authorization for anyone working weekends. At the time, two soldiers stationed there had committed suicide in 2009 -- a rate well below those of other posts.

tbh this is much better than my job, minus today's shootings and the suicide stats

Hmmm...

Update 4:08 ABC News reports shooter's identity is Malique Hassan.

oh, that's just great...

Apparently all three gunmen were soldiers.

Have they released the names of the two surviving suspects?

please let their names be buck utah and deke america : /

Nothing as yet

i guess that makes my point completely moot. doh! still bad tho

There was a foiled terrist plot here last year that involved somali muslim idiots planning to shoot up an army base :/ I hope the US media don't leap on that as some kind of link :/

He was a Major. 39-40 years old.

Major Malik Nadal Hasan

I admit I wasn't expecting this to be a middle aged officer.

I was just reading the Rolling Stone article about the murders at Fort Carson earlier today and I couldn't help but wonder at first if this was another case of a returning vet snapping after a complete lack of support.

OK, the local right wing host is shouting to the skies, demanding to know why the FBI won't call this an act of "jihadist terrorism." "Why are they being so politically correct?" he's saying. Gee, maybe because the FBI doesn't have all the information yet?

Wouldn't want to be a Muslim in the armed forces right now.

Seems like while there are two other soldiers held as suspects at present only Hasan was the shooter.

Actually, wouldn't want to be anyone in the armed forces right now.

xpost Maybe he went postal because everyone assumed he was Muslim?

recent convert to Islam
originally from Virginia

“US Army Major Malik Nadal Hasan” sounds as ridiculous as “President Barack Hussein Ubama”.
God help America.

A psychiatrist even. Okay every further new detail about this case makes my head spin.

Holy hell.

Good luck USA :/

wow

weird detail: "At the time, two soldiers stationed there had committed suicide in 2009 -- a rate well below those of other posts."

Interesting how this will be spun as terrorism, but the beltway snipers were just... uh... serial killers who talked about jihad.

how did I go all day without knowing about this

lol, CNN's reporting consists of a shot of them googling hasan and showing the browser results

WASHINGTON — The Army major suspected of opening fire on soldiers as they were preparing to deploy overseas at the massive Fort Hood military base in central Texas Thursday may have been an Army psychiatrist who recently completed training in disaster and preventive psychiatry at Walter Reed Medical Center in the nation's capital.

A military official who asked not to be identified said the gunman was Army Major Malik Nidal Hasan, 39. Hasan was killed after he opened fire at Fort Hood's Soldiers Readiness Processing Center.

The official provided no other information on Hasan. But Virginia state medical licensing records list a Nidal Malik Hasan as a psychiatrist for the Army Medical Corps, with his primary practice at Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood. The phone number listed for him in the Virginia records, which carried a Maryland area code, was unanswered.

According to the records, Hasan completed a residency in psychiatry at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. in 2007 and additional training in disaster and preventive psychiatry at Uniformed Services University Of the Health Sciences F. Edward Herbert School of Medicine, in Bethesda, Md.. At least 12 people were killed and 31 wounded in a shooting at Fort Hood Army Base near Killeen, Texas, when at least one gunmen opened fire on soldiers who were making their final deployment preparations.

so a dude with the wrong kind of ethnic name went crazy huh

Shooter's Facebook page, apparently.

that guy doesn't even have the same name

Xenophobic racist cuntflap Debbie Schlussel tweets: "Ft. Hood Killer Nidal Malik Hasan MD, Warned U bout Muslim Doctors"
