Soldier Kills 13 in Mass Shooting at Fort Hood: Political Correctness and Gun Control Cited by Critics

A Muslim solder, Nidal Hasan, shot dead 13 people at Fort Hood yesterday. Hasan had earlier exhibited extremist, anti-American propensities, including applauding terrorist attacks against U.S. soldiers. There are different theories as to how this could have happened.

One school of thought attributes the tragedy to politically-correct double standards imposed on the military that kept the alarm bells from going off.

Other commentators point to a gun-control policy that disarms soldiers while on military bases to create “gun-free zones,” leaving them defenseless in the face of an attack.

These explanations are not mutually exclusive. Doubtless other factors could have contributed to the tragedy as well.

    When will the world accept the reality of Islamofascism?
    It could not be more obvious.
    With aprox 57 countries, no lack of territory,
    With resources galore, a pirates dream,
    With a populace that can work and build,
    With almost 1/3 of the worlds population..

    and Muslims believe they are victims?

    Why do Chinese immigrants embrace the opportunity that the West provides…why do Italians, Poles, Armenians,Jews, etc… not rant and rave about bias when in fact they all receive bias to some degree….they may protest here and there…but their 1st priority is to get on with living, growing, and building a better tommorrow…bridges…not terrorist extremism….

    so much for the teachings of religion…..what is the lesson?
    KILL KILL KILL?

    Contrary to the essence of religion which inherently states to set an example for others to see….are the daily murder of Muslims,and non Muslims by Muslims the example that Muslims set for the non Muslim world?
    Muslims themselves make Islam a religion of unprecedented terror.
