End of Days: Man Kills 12 People Including Himself on a Texas Army Base, 31 Injured
Posted by Bossip Staff
This is sad:
Eleven people plus a gunman were dead and 31 wounded after the gunman opened fire Thursday on a soldier-processing center at Fort Hood, Texas, officials said. The gunman was a soldier, and two other soldiers have been detained as suspects, Army Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said. The slain gunman was identified as Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, 39, a law enforcement source told CNN. Licensed in Virginia, Hasan was a psychiatrist who previously worked at Walter Reed Army Medical Center but more recently was practicing at Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood, according to professional records. Ten of the other dead also were soldiers, while the remaining one was a civilian police officer who was working as a contractor on the base, Cone said. Two of the injured were in “very serious” condition, Fort Hood spokesman Christopher Hogue said. “All the casualties took place at the initial incident, that took place at 13:30 [1:30 p.m. CT], at the soldier readiness facility,” Cone said. A senior officer who was playing golf Thursday about 2.5 miles from the attack said he witnessed the arrest of one of the two surviving suspects. Shortly after the shooting, military police told him to clear the course, and he saw other MPs surround the building that held the golf carts, he said. He ducked into a nearby house for cover as 30 to 40 cars carrying MPs approached, he said.
A congressional aide said he was on the post to attend a graduation service when he saw a soldier with blood on his uniform near the building where the service was being held, the Austin American-Statesman reported. Greg Schannep, an aide to U.S. Rep. John Carter, said the soldier ran past him and said a man was shooting. He said the soldier appeared to be injured in a shoulder, the American-Statesman reported. President Obama called the shootings “tragic” and “a horrific outburst of violence.” He expressed his condolences for the shooting victims. “These are men and women who have made the selfless and courageous decision to risk, and at times give, their lives to protect the rest of us on a daily basis,” Obama said. “It’s difficult enough when we lose these brave Americans in battles overseas. It is horrifying that they should come under fire at an Army base on American soil.” Officials at Fort Hood, which is the Army’s largest U.S. post, were asking people there to stay away from windows, CNN affiliate KXXV said. The incident took place at the sports dome, now known as the soldier readiness area, the station reported. The Army has asked the FBI to look into the background of the suspects, Cone said. On the Fort Hood Web site, the word “closed” is posted with the statement, “Effective immediately, Fort Hood is closed. Organizations/units are instructed to execute a 100 percent accountability of all personnel.” Fort Hood, with about 40,000 troops, is home to the Army’s 1st Cavalry Division and elements of the 4th Infantry Division, as well as the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment and the 13th Corps Support Command. It is located near Killeen, Texas.
SMH. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those families.

I just heard about this it sad sad, to many nuts out here these days
Good grief…these soldiers are flippin out.
I’m waiting for the names. The story comes on every 5 min. with no new info. I guess the family hasn’t been notified yet.
Nidal Malik Hasan…FOX NEWS is going to have a field day with this story.
soooooo sad.
This is crazy! The gov’t needs to stop deploying them so much and for so long. These soldiers have no stability in their lives, other than the constant deployments, and it’s starting to interfere with their way of thinking. Condolences to those who were hurt and also to the families. ARMY STRONG!
f’n terrorist ahole
wow… my thoughts and prayers out to those families dealing with such grief
don’t call this animal a soldier

Nidal Malik Hasan…FOX NEWS is going to have a field day with this story.

Right! Our family’s prayers are with those victims’ families. On our own soil…..damn…..
And it was a Major too.
Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look for FOX and Rush Limbaugh to jump all over this sh*t! Muslim Major who was a psychiatry specialist kills 12 U.S. soldiers and injures 31?
Look for Rush to say “all this happened because of Liberal policies, no Muslim should be an officer in the U.S. military and definetely not commanding troops or underlings, under the conservatives he never would have gotten promoted to that rank anyway”
took you clowns long enuf to post. This is real life. RIP
wth is going on ………..so sad
I have lived here at Fort Hood/Killeen for the last 20 years and this is a horrible situation! Please keep the victims families (including the shooter) in your prayers!!
true……
these young men over in iraq and afgan… are going to come back really twisted.. and just think this soldier hadn’t left for the war yet…. what you say about that tea baggers? rush….. and hannity? this is the republican’s war.. this is what your party has been about all thur history , and thats starting war—- *****isting wall street w/ fleeing the US taxpayers and lead this world as the party who invented corruption. then they go around the country trying to flip the scrip w/ their scare tactics… our kids and grandkids.. baloney….. this is another rally cry and the soundtrack of the repub party… its their “willie horton” moment. its call scare the white folks.
its bush&cheneys fault!
I saw the headlines earlier. But this is the first time I heard his name. Our “newsmedia” are not making a big deal out of his name. The fact that his name suggests he was Muslim is very important. He was not your average soldier. The mainstream media will try to sweep that under the rug. Only FOX news will explore this important fact.
OMG! He was stationed at Walter Reed with me??? To think, I could have p*****ed him in the hall countless times…I feel so sorry for the family…
MAY GOD BLESS THEM….
God Bless America, and be with the families of all who died or were injured…
It’s hard not to write something that will be censored right now, so I’ll stop with that.
Less than a year ago, my brother was stationed at Fort Hood. There but for the Grace of God…
PLEASE NO ONE WATCH FOX NEWS…
White Devil, have you read the book ‘Infidel’ by Ayaan Hirsi Ali (the lady in your avatar)? I keep picking it up in the stores yet always choose another book. Is it a good read?
My prayers are with those at Fort Hood and Killeen, TX. I was stationed at Fort Hood and my son was born at Darnall ACH. Stay Strong and God Bless you all.
Yah Hirsi Ali is very interesting.
let me paraphrase the mulatto president.
i would like to give a shoutout to bossip for doing this story. bossip is doing a wonderful job.
oh, the shootings were horrific!
and he didn’t die so it’s bush’s fault.
There is no way in Sams’ Hell they was gonna let that ***** die – and leave all of those questions unanswered. I knew in my heart of hearts that they were lying -Claiming he was dead, so no one else could murk that *****, and to get as much info/intelligence as remotely possible. His life is ova! Something in tha milk ain’t clean.
I’m so suprise I just knew the shooter was a black men since there losing there d*mn minds now. You see black men killing black men,dis-owning there on black race,r*aping white women and white men and even R*ping animals this sounds like some a crazy N*gger would do.
I blame this on the Black men there some dumb N*ggers.
I would boil him in pigs blood if I was in charge.
this is sad but what does the military expect. They keep deploying these soldiers back to back. Whose counciling the counselor. He’s hearing stories every day of soldiers being killing machines & they said he was being bullied at work. I was in the military & friendly fire is live and well. My heart goes out to all involved, including the shooter. usually if you get a bad counseling statement as an officer its because he was doing the right thing, i bet he was diagnosing people with ptsd when the military was tryna make him change the records, of course he wont survive this and we’ll never know the truth.
I think this was set up.
Just my opinion. I’ll recant once I read some more on the shooter but for now……
…..set up. Inside job!
U Krackas crack me up!!! Who gives a d*amn if he was muslim, black, or white? Would it have been better if he were Asian??? I mean seriously this was a travesty and I’m sure outta all those victims there were a variety of colors so WHATEVA race he was has absolutely nothing to do with ish…he must’ve snapped… evidently probably becuase of hating a$$ kracka’s like you!Whatever he was he was a damn doctor, lets keep that in mind so he probably had more education than you>>(all cracker jacks who hate)….lets get the facts out and quit trying to do the govt job and for the trash tramp who made the comment about my “Mulatto” president, kick rocks dumb ho…peace out
I thought it would of been a damn coon.
Lord, please watch over and bless your children.
My heart goes out to all of the people who were affected in anyway by this terrible crime. Day in and day out people die by many means; famine, disease, accidents… and they are tragic occurences simply because a human life is gone. It’s hard for me to even wrap my mind around something like this (which is clearly no accident)… in the words of Bossip “Jesus (please) take the wheel”…
Was this a terrorist attack? My condolences to the families.
HE DID NOT KILL HIMSELF. THE IDIOT IS STILL ALIVE but UNCONSCIOUS AND ON LIFE SUPPORT BUT NOT DEAD LIKE HE SHOULD BE AND WAS REPORTED.
What do you mean set up? He was a member of the Army and at that base since he would soon ship out to Iraq/Afghanistan. Only set up was by himself. He either did not want to ship out or since he comes from an Islam family who did not like him ever joining the Army, maybe this was his supposed to be his show to his family. He didnt die yet, like he probably planned. Idiot.

Kudos to bossip for being the ONLY major black news/gossip website to post about this sad event. This is so much more relevant than seeing pictures of JLo eating pizza or Beyonce walking across the street.
@ White girl
Why is it always color with people like you??? All Caucasian don’t think like you, thank God, but you are one ignorant individual. Families are in mourning and you’re talking about color.
Anyway, may God have mercy on the shooter and may He give the families comfort. Peace!!!!!!!!!
@ I knew this was a black man
Blacks are killing blacks? What? Are you crazy or plain stupid? I would guess the latter part. Once again, you people always make this about race, what about the families your ignorant SOB!!!! Wise up, stop being so ignorant and stupid, it’s going to be a sad thing when you stand before Jesus Christ and he’s going to be an African American. Peace!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lock him up! Throw away the key!
FYI THE SHOOTER IS NOT DEAD…HE WAS WOUNDED BY A CIVILIAN OFFICER AND IS IN THE HOSPITAL
@casper-”this is the republican’s war.. this is what your party has been about all thur history , and thats starting war—- *****isting wall street w/ fleeing the US taxpayers and lead this world as the party who invented corruption. then they go around the country trying to flip the scrip w/ their scare tactics… our kids and grandkids.. baloney….. this is another rally cry and the soundtrack of the repub party… its their “willie horton” moment. its call scare the white folks.”

the sad part is, it’s working…
I still say, we do not need to go to war, with anyone…We need to mind our own damn business…
You think this is bad? What are they going to do when the post-traumatic stress disorder soldiers start coming home? After their 4,5,6 different tours? Suicide rate is climbing…They don’t want us in their country, more Americans die everyday…
They’ve been fighting for thousands of years, we can’t solve their problems, let them deal with it…
THIS MAKES ME REJOICE!!!! OUR KINGDOM IS NEAR JUDAH!!!!!
BTW: Not everyone is going to kill their own people, just because they happen to have the go ahead from their country… Some people would rather kill themselves or others instead..As evidenced in this situation…
Middle Easterners have no interest in killing their own, even if they are born here…Their culture is completely different…Americans will never understand their faith, values or beliefs…
They do not separate religion and politics. Not everyone thinks that our country is a good place…
That’s why extensive psychological testing should be done, to see who is a good match, if not, you will continue to have these kinds of incidents…
White Girl
I blame this on the Black men there some dumb N*ggers.
===============================================
LMAO!!!!!!
Bin Laden said that he would bankrupt this country.
I’ll be damned, if he wasn’t telling the truth..
I’m sick to death, of all this killing,death and war… Makes no difference to me that it’s sanctioned by our government…
We need to quit wasting our money,resources and American lives, to further involve a situation that doesn’t concern us….
To the dummy who saying look at his name, he is a Muslim. You *****es need to go to the Walter Reed and find out how many Muslim soldier have lost a limb or become cripple while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan. You have Muslim in the Special Forces, in fact the make up the “majority” of Arabic speakers. After you have done that go to the Arlington Cemetery see how many Muslims who died giving their lives for America. My cousin, a Muslim, volunteered for the Marines because of what happened on 9/11. He died in Iraq in August of 2003 fighting for country he loved. So F U C K all you racists.
the muslim gunman is still alive in critical condition
@ Awwshaddap
I just read Infidel. It was a good book. I couldn’t put it down. That’s why I changed my Gravatar. But I am still seeing my old one for some reason.
@ Hater of Xenophobes
I think that most Muslims are good people. But I think that in general, they are good in spite of their religion. They don’t really take the violent and intolerant parts of their religion seriously. I don’t want to insult people like your cousin. I have nothing but respect for people like him.
You aint safe no where..
Sad for those people..
just glad it wasn’t one of ours..a Black Muslim..
the backlash on this alone is going to be bad..
What is going on in the mind of a dr to do this?
The army need to look at the mind aspect of war, its more than physical..
