A victim of the most recent act of terrorism.

Well, I don’t expect much of Locher after all. But, under the circumstances, this is poorer than usual.

Again, thanks to the woman who stopped it. Why DID a private security officer have to step in? Oh, right, our “contracted” military under Cheney/bush.

Guns don’t kill people, nuts kill people they just use guns to do it.

Trout’s biases overload his keyboard. Sgt. Munley is a DA Civilian.
Cpl. Obama is awarded the sitting duck award, another award above his pay grade.

Sympathy for those that had losses !
But why is it, 40 + people got shot in two days, more than in Locher’s Dick Tracy in the past 22 years ?
Not quick on the trigger like Hasan, or even like female police heroine Sgt, Kimberly Munley. Our blurting, “stand still” Detective Tracy now defines Apraxia. Practically pistol whipped by a Clown.

trout–your post is idiotic at best. Besides it is Dems that pushed for civilianizing bases back in the 60’s.

I can’t believe he did this. If this supposed to sympathetic it fails miserably.
“Sydney Phillips” Good one about Dick Tracy being lame as all get for the past 20 years.
When look at now it’s heartbreaking.
But in all seriousness my sympathies to Ft. Hood.

Yeah, he was a muslim. that doesn’t mean he did what he did because he was a muslim.
What do you suiggest, kill every muslim in America as a preemptive strike?
dtroutma said, 13 days ago
Howie, yes they started putting civilians in maintenance, and on KP in the ’60s. They didn’t replace AP, MP, and SP on security details until much more recently. It’s also interesting how much derogatory treatment the “troops” now get from many of those civilian contract security folks.
The lady in this case certainly DID her job, and she was ex-military.

Notice how quick the lefty extremists will blame all gun owners and gun manufacturers for the actions of one nut with a gun, but they tell us we must REFUSE to hold the backwards world of Islam responsible for the multiple acts of Muslim terrorists.
Take Hasan out of his coma, cut open his belly in front of his eyes, stuff in bacon, pork sausages & chops and stitch him back up and tell him when he gets to his 7th century “paradise” the only “virgins” waiting for him will be camels & pigs.
HOWGOZIT said, 13 days ago
I wasn’t bashing civilians and agree that the young lady did her job well and unhesitatingly. What is idiotic is your Bush/Cheney referral.
Corosive Frog said, 13 days ago
nospam4me;
I’ll take that as a yes to my last post.
dtroutma said, 12 days ago
Howie: think “Xi”-Blackwater, Halliburton, KBR, Lockheed/Martin– it isn’t just “security guards”, or here at home, or merely in the military, but throughout the whole government under Cheney/Bush–the referral is far from restricted, or idiotic on examination.

DrCanuck agrees: It’s the American way.
(good grief)

Sorry trout–it was the great Daschle that cried “federalize” everyone.

Question Dicky ?
Do I rightly percieve that you have slipped your Sunday DT “Yellow Rubber Duckie” memorial for your son IN, as a “medal” on this Fort Hood soldier ?
Can’t recall any U.S. Service ribbon or award in that shape.
Dicky, if I’m right, don’t you think you’re taking this nepotistic “liberty” a bit too far ? It may make you feel good, but to others who may wish to genuinely sympathize it seems totally inappropriate
d_legendary1 said, 10 days ago
I wonder if he’s trying to say that Ft.Hood was a sitting duck of a target for anyone? Weird @$$ medal on that guy’s chest…

LEGENDINYOUROWNMIND: Your mastery of the obvious is incredible.
I wasn’t too wild about this cartoon. But if a General can go on the tube and make the comparison to shooting fish in a barrel, I guess I can’t be too critical of the analogy of ducks on a pond…
