Yep, that's what they're calling the Fort Hood Shootings.

Seems to be a case where context is key to understanding and this piece gives us none. |

Here's the context: http://www.defense.gov/pubs/pdfs/DOD-ProtectingTheForce-Web_Security_HR_13jan10.pdf It's the study the DOD did after the Fort Hood shootings. They examined how better to protect people in the military from internal threats, and how prepared they are to deal with the what happens in the event such an internal threat acts. They examined both the details surrounding the Fort Hood shooter, and generalized what happened with him into broader guidelines for how to prevent future attacks, regardless of the motivation of the perpetrator. I found the Executive Summary very informative. Edited by somebody else's sock, Dec 8 2011, 05:44 AM.

Hopefully the Republicans will counteract this disgraceful show of political correctness by pointing out that guns don't kill people. A statement that I always found vaguely reminiscent of 'you can't buy happiness'. |
