Religiously motivated massacre at Ft Hood really a "tragedy" ?

"There is an ongoing investigation into this terrible tragedy," Obama said. "That investigation will look at the motives of the alleged gunman, including his views and contacts."

Thats all we hear from our elected servants ,,, "Tragedy", as if it was some natural disaster, or a piano fell on someones head or something.
Don't want or intend for this to get political, but someones got to step up to the plate and start calling a spade a spade.

I'm glad the FEDERAL AND MILITARY authorities are going to be handling the investigation.

That's not Congress's role anyway. They are law MAKERS, not some investigative committee.

GEESH. Let's throw some more gridlock at Congress. What do you want 10,000 people investigating one man's senseless (and even possibly linked) act INCLUDING Congress?

As they said they are going to let Federal Authorities handle it - that includes a WIDE range of assets.

I agree that the LE & military investigations should run their course before any federal investigations take place.
For a high profile event such as this, with apparently many failings at many levels, an eventual congressional inquiry is a certainty.

Ok :icon_thumleft:

When you said it's time to call a spade a spade, I thought you were insinuating Obama was somehow trying to protect this Islamic nut case.

Ill probaly suprise some folks here, But I belive 0bama did the right thing not mentioning the Shooters religion, (or calling a "spade a spade") It could only possibly cause more problems, If the Leader of the most powerful country in the world were to call him a Muslim terrorist, at this point.
We all know he IS, No one needs to tell me or anyone else he is.

I Hope the military still uses the Fireing squad, But of course due to military cutbacks Maybe we could just use a pellet gun and one trigger puller, till hes DEAD.

No, I meant lets start calling this a massacre, an outrage, a premeditated homicide spree, instead of a "tragedy".

I realize that a high public official must pick n chose their words carefully, but I'm getting the impression that they are making a calculated effort to sanitize & sugar coat this.

It does seem to be 0bamas M-O to avoid taking a stand on anything concrete.

He certainly seems to take more time considering his options and contingencies than GW! :icon_thumleft:

"There is an ongoing investigation into this terrible tragedy," Obama said.
It's a tragedy for another reason which Obama was alluding to and that is the experiment
of Muslim assimilation into the Armed Forces was a terrible mistake of tragic proportions.

I think this event at Hood may have made his decision easier about scaling back in
Afghanistan, time will shortly tell.

:icon_scratch: I wonder what the odds are that Ob will commute his sentence or pardon him...?

I look for the obvious religious/racial implications to be played down to near 0, just as they did with the DC sniper recently sent to allah.

About the same odds that GWB will convert to Islam and marry a Bedouin Princess
in Saudi Arabia.

Yes, GWB showed us that it's definitely better to act quickly without thinking. Hence why we're throwing away so many young soldiers lives in Iraq. :thumbsup:

Yes, he really took a lot of time to consider the facts before he issued his declaration that the campus police acted "stupidly" when that black professor(and friend of O) let loose with his racist bile. :icon_scratch:...
The community organizer is in waaaay over his head and we will be paying the price for this mistake for decades to come... Aaaahh change...

Re: Religiously motivated massacre at Ft Hood really a "tragedy" ?

All semantics aside it is a Murder, by a evil Islamist scum bag, and yes a terrible TRAGEDY!! :'( Politics aside, just publicly hang this insult to humanity. Do it like the Germans who infiltrated the US lines in US uniforms during the Battle of the Bulge. Those scum got a 3 day court martial, a cigarette, and a blindfold. I have some nice pictures of them right before execution in a book here at the house. Why do we have to wait????? This is war, Hasan is GUILTY!!!! Get it over with and quit dragging this TRAGEDY out. Give him his MILITARY court martial and send him on to Hades where he belongs with his master. I wonder if he gets 72 virgin subcuses?? Oh yeah, subuci do not come in a virgin model. Maybe he can be the virgin for a herd of demons!! I like that ideal :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:

We have been losing far more young lives in Afghanistan over the past 100 days or so since the commanders on the ground issued their plea for more troops. Let us not get confused with the difference between considerate deliberation and simply freezing up and not knowing what the hell to do.... This guy never had to make decisions like this when he was organizing the "community" :-\....

Can we cut out the Obama bashing like you started in post #14.
I thought we'd moved away from that
