Shooting At Fort Hood

As every day goes by since the shootings we learn more and more about what a crazy person the shooter was (although we already knew he was sick to begin with.) This is a person who came from an immigrant family (his parents were Palestinians) and joined the US Military, received free medical training only to open fire and shoot his fellow soldiers. We should not overlook the fact that he is Muslim and was adamant about not wanting to be deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan - where he would have to kills his "fellow Muslims."

He is a disgusting excuse for a human being and deserves to be deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan and given the task of clearing mines or going house to house on patrol. He opened fire on his fellow soldiers so he wouldn't go overseas, by sending him there it would be more of a punishment then jail. If he survived overseas then we could then give him the death penalty for the murders. He wouldn't get the 40 virgins in heaven or whatever it is they are supposed to get for killing innocent people.

We should not brush aside that he was Muslim because it is one of the main reasons - if not the only reason - for him wanting to leave the military and when he couldn't, for killing. I have said this many times and I will continue to say it. Why are we being so PC when the facts show that every major act of terrorism in the world since 2000 has been planned and carried out by Muslims (even if they are militants they are still Muslims?) Because we don't want to hurt the feelings of a few we are risking the lives of millions upon millions of innocent people by not focusing our anti-terrorist efforts on the group that is the highest-risk of creating terrorists - the followers of Islam. I am not calling for putting Muslims in concentration camps or anything like that, but more public efforts need to be moved to track mosques, Muslim groups/organizations to prevent more attacks and the deaths of more innocent people.

Muslim militants have carried out terrorist attacks in: the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, India, Indonesia, the Philippines, Pakistan, Russia, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Israel and other countries. To ignore the facts means that there will be more attacks carried out by the same types of people as before.

I hope the shooter gets everything he deserves to the fullest extent of the law. Hopefully, the US and other countries will learn from the mistakes that allowed the shooter to "fall through the cracks" even when the FBI and other groups knew about his websites and all the anti-American sayings he writes. We can not let something like this to happen again.
