12 die in dual shootings at Fort Hood, Texas

What about the ladies at the health club? They are dead because some guy couldn't get laid. Should we lock up people that are against President Obama?

"Bring out Tom Cruise and his "Pre-Crime" unit"

ejames, reality is a better basis for making your decisions than a Tom Cruise movie. The 'dead people' in Tom Cruise movies are only play acting, unlike the 3000 dead people on 9-11; or the 13 dead people at Fort Hood.

Different...this is a terrorist act based on islamic radicalism...not an insane gym rat.

Ok, then what about OK City? What was that based on? Atlanta? What was that based on? Abortion Clinics? What are those based on?

Nut jobs...fortunately, isolated. Islamic radicalism? not so isolated.

I wouldn't consider Right-Wing nutjobs isolated. Someone has never heard of the Militia Movement. Also, aren't you in violation of the terms of service?

How very convenient, all right wing terrorists you give a free pass to.

You have earned your right wing kool-aid for the day, you should be proud to drink with Eric Rudolph, Tim McVie, and their ilk.

[ccbatson]

Free pass? McVeigh was executed...and now they are fixing to let the 911 mastermind off via a trial in New York.

[Detroitej72]

The fact that you conservatives think that McVie acted alone, and wasn't part of a larger movement speaks volumes about your phony "tea-bag" movement.

BTW, I want to be there when you eat crow when "the mastermind behind 9-11", K.S. Mohammad is executed by a U.S. Court, since you seem to think Americans are incapable of serving on a jury...

[ccbatson]

Even if KSM is executed, trying him in a civil court is plain wrong. FDR [[Obama's stated hero) clearly understood this and made sure that war crimes were tried in military tribunals.

"Quote: "So I presume you are anti-choice Sstashmoo? "

When it comes to people I am. You and yours would set this country back 200 years if it weren't for the rest of us. We are all created equal here, regardless of what the mainstream media would have you believe. They preach stop the hate, all the while teaching it.

I gotta ask: What does a terrorist look like to you? In other words just who would you throw in your gulag and why?"

Answer: A terrorist to me is someone who advocates that, by their criteria [[the terrorists) any other class of people have no right to exist.

Question for you tashmoo: Does a proper respect for the diverse view of others require that you tolerate a view that the elimination of you and your own philosophy is a worthy goal?

The shooter needed to get laid. Had he not had all these lame-ass requirements for a woman and gotten some action, he would have loosened up a bit. Of course, that all ties into his twisted religious beliefs however.

How would that have helped his anger over the wars?

That is nothing but propaganda. Some in this world are pissed off at us about the treatment and the Palestinians because we are funding it. Nutshell. That's why we are not liked. Has nothing to do with hating our culture and wanting to destroy us. Which is just trumped up bullshit to keep people looking the other direction. Think about it man, they hate our philosophy? Ours isn't the only one that differs from theirs, why do they hate us? How long are people going to fall for this nonsense? We used to be schooled on how to hate the Russians, oh they were baaaad. Then it was someone else we were supposed to beware of, now it's someone else. I'm not hating anyone.

Nothing but propaganda?

So, you're saying the mission purpose of Al Queda, the broadcasts and statements of Bin Laden and Kalid Mohammad; the destruction of political opposition under the Taliban in pre 9-11Afganistan, the bombings of the Madrid train station, the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, and indonesia, and other such things were all just 'made up' by Bush and Cheny in the basement of the Whitehouse and distributed to a willing and complicit media???

[ejames01]

It is propaganda that all of that has anything to do with us. Most of the violence in the world is caused by local disputes over wealth, religion, tribes and natural resources.

This stuff has been going on since before the beginning of recorded history.

It is folly to try and psychoanalyze active terrorists....bring them to justice and deter their brethren through a display of overwhelming strength and conviction.
