What Will the Media Do? Pt.2

As new information comes out regarding the vicious mass murders at Ft.Hood, we have learned more about this killer. Some of the things that have come to light are:1. he's been a muslim since birth,2. he acted alone and is still alive, 3.he's been in the military since before 9-11 and worked as either a psychologist or psychiatrist,4.he has for some time had been quite vocal in his crititcism of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, 5.had sought legal help in avoiding his impending deployment overseas to one of the two just mentioned countries,6.had recently received a bad job evaluation. I don't know, I'm no genius but didn't 4 of the 6 things listed above raise any red flags with the "brass" at Ft.Hood? I mean,it's not like there has never been a case of muslims in the U.S. military committing acts of violence against our soldiers.
Oh yeah,the story was barely hours old and we were treated to the first excuse pertaining to why this coward may have "snapped" and done this,the killer had been subject to harrassment for his being muslim from other soldiers.
I close with this,think about it,this man killed 11 of our soldiers and wounded 31 others.Obviously his intention was to kill all of the people he shot at.It was a premeditated and carefully planned act.In the days,weeks and months ahead, watch and listen to who the apologists and minimizers are for this man.Look for the sympathic spin that involves this killer being a poor muslim who was surrounded by those who hated,harrassed and degraded him.
A country that allows in those who embrace faiths and ideals that are against their beliefs and policies is doomed.We're such a country.
