I really hope the shooter is branded a terrorist.

I really don't get how this thread has devolved into pro or con gun laws, utterly irrelevant.
What is terribly relevant is the Fort Bragg history of this guy, and how Fort Bragg has a frequent mass shooting incident ... just my perspective.
October 27, 1995 1 dead 17 injured
November 5, 2009 1 dead 2 injured
June 28, 2012 2 incl shooter
August 5, 2012 7 incl shooter
Fort Bragg has many different "research facilities" including chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction.
Ban the US military!

University of Colorado Denver officials won't say whether he gave that presentation, listed on the syllabus for a class called "biological basis of psychiatric and neurological disorders." In any case, Holmes was by then already slipping out of

Actually, I used the term “subhuman” on purpose. And yes I am convinced that skinheads are subhuman. They lack fundamental rationality and their ethics is less then human.
I remember seeing footage of a neo-nazi rally and they had the swastika backward! ( clockwise rather then counter-clockwise! Good grief! They are so stupid that even I ( an outsider) know more about their tradition and background!
PS; I also use other language they use. “hand” “car” “boat”….etc

psychological operations unit
what do they do in the psychological operations unit?
Hasan was a psychiatrist and this new shooter was previously in a psychological operations unit in Fr. Bragg. The Batman shooter was a Neuroscience student on campus designated as a DARPA facility. My tinfoil hat is telling me that something stinks.
