In this incident, it is demonstrated, as I have always maintained,
that:
1) Gun prohibitions cause massacres.
Some nutcase will get a gun illegally onto the site and for him, it
would be like a turkey shoot or shooting fish in a barrel.
2) Other guns stop massacres.
Good job a woman police officer had a gun to shoot back. Too bad she
didn't finish the job.
3) Muslims are traitors
Yes but we already knew that. They are a moon worshipping death cult
who want to either convert or kill everyone.
4) WW3 will be between Islam and the rest of us
Pick your side now or your side will be picked for you!
Quod Erat Demonstrandum (QED).

Fort Hood shooting: gunman shouted 'Allahu Akbar' before opening fire
Soldiers who witnessed the shooting rampage that killed 13 people at
Fort Hood military base in Texas have reported that gunman Major Nidal
Malik Hasan shouted "Allahu Akbar" - God is great - before opening
fire.
Published: 2:47PM GMT 06 Nov 2009
General Robert Cone, the base commander, said officials had not yet
confirmed that the suspected gunman made the comment before the
rampage which left 30 people wounded, including Hasan.
A woman police officer, Sgt Kim Munley, shot Hasan four times but was
herself wounded in the gun battle. Her condition is now stable,
according to military officials.
Gen Cone said Hasan was not known to be a threat or risk. He
acknowledged that it was "counterintuitive" that a single gunman could
kill and injure so many people. But he said the massacre occurred in
"close quarters."
Gen Cone said Hasan was in hospital in a stable condition and that
investigators hope to interrogate him as soon as possible. In the
early chaos after the shootings, authorities believed they had killed
him, only to discover later that he had survived.
Authorities are investigating whether Hasan's weapons were properly
registered with the military.
The motive for the shooting wasn't clear, but Hasan was apparently set
to deploy to the Middle East soon and had expressed some anger about
the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Hasan attended prayers regularly when he lived outside Washington,
often in his army uniform, according to said Faizul Khan, a former
imam at a mosque Hasan attended in Silver Spring, Maryland. He said
Hasan was a lifelong Muslim.
"I got the impression that he was a committed soldier," Mr Khan said.
He spoke often with Hasan about Hasan's desire for a wife.
On a form filled out by those seeking spouses through a program at the
mosque, Hasan listed his birthplace as Arlington, Virginia, but his
nationality as Palestinian, Khan said.
"I don't know why he listed Palestinian," Mr Khan said, "He was not
born in Palestine."
Hasan's aunt Noel Hasan of Falls Church, Virginia, told the The
Washington Post that her nephew had been harassed about being a Muslim
in the years after the September 11 attacks and he wanted to leave the
army.
"Some people can take it and some people cannot," she said. "He had
listened to all of that and he wanted out of the military."
At least six months ago, Hasan came to the attention of law
enforcement officials because of Internet postings about suicide
bombings and other threats, including posts that equated suicide
bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the
lives of their comrades.
Investigators had not determined for certain whether Hasan was the
author of the posting, and a formal investigation had not been opened
before the shooting, law enforcement officials told the Associated
Press on condition of anonymity.
The FBI, local police and other agencies searched Hasan's apartment in
the hours after the shooting.
