REMEMBER PAT TILLMAN!
That's all I'm saying as the supposed details keep trickling in regarding Ft. Hood.

Don't believe half of what you hear and none of what you see.

1. Yup, I was thinking the same thing.
The Army will paint this anyway they wish to maximize their propaganda efforts.

2. Bingo - You're onto something.
They are now forming a story to FIT the actions of the civilian police force who shot him. They're placing the woman at the top of the hero list.

Don't get me wrong, those police officers are GENUINE heroes, but the STORY will be skewed into the OZONE - beyond reality by the crusty PsyOps people who must justify the surge in Afghanistan. They must have their HERO!

4. My first thought....
...and then my second thought as well and even stronger when "SUDDENLY" the alleged shooter was found to be alive ~~ but unable to speak.

My bullshit meter is waaaaaaaaaay past the center line.

5. I was making that same comment not even an hour ago to my husband
I'm sure he thinks I should adjust my tinfoil hat, but I'm reading Jon Krakauer's biography of Pat Tillman right now.

:tinfoilhat:

6. How often have 'official' stories from 'officials' been proven false once real investigations occur?
Not enough fingers on my hands or yours.

8. The orginal report was there were 2 shooting incidents going on at once.
Then-one gunman dead.

Then-one gunman alive.

Can't believe a word of it.

9. The Military will tell us what they want us to believe
Who says there wasn't "friendly fire" and some of the dead or injured were accidentally killed by soldiers or mp's not knowing who the attacker was?

Is it possible that he could shoot 40 people all by himself before he was taken down? Some reports says he was treated by medics who thought he was a victim.

It took them an awfully long time to tell us the shooter was alive, for hours it was reported he was killed.

10. Glad I could Rec. this.
911 was an inside job.
Pat Tillman knew.

13. The Army is never reliable when reporting on itself.

14. But McCrystal isn't the commandant of Ft. Hood, so maybe we ARE getting the truth?
