As with most things, the path that led Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan to allegedly stage an attack on his fellow servicemen and -women at Fort Hood was complex. No doubt his minority status had something to do with it, although an awful lot of adherents of minority religions get along just fine in the U.S. military. Beyond all this identity stuff, however, it looks as if Hasan had a clear history of professional incompetence. It's easy to imagine someone with minimal proficiency in his profession shifting blame for his incompetence to the system that employs him. The vast majority of Arab-Americans and American Muslims are quick to acknowledge their gratitude to a society that, while far from perfect, has offered them an equal shot at life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Let's not write off the tragic case of Nidal Hasan as Y.A.M.T. (Yet Another Muslim Terrorist).

We don't want to think that this poor guy could have been setup, since we have no idea who or where the "other suspects" went.
Yeah, its gotta be gun control. It's gotta be something. But it definitely could not be this administration and its military policies. Oh no! Then we would have to admit that we voted for the wrong person, AGAIN!!!!!
With no pun-intended here, we got the dark-side of Bush AGAIN. And frankly I have had ENOUGH!
