Ft. Hood Shooter was Mistreated

He was so alone he didn't even have Allah?

What a loser.

Stereotypes bring upon racism, racism brings upon prejudice, and prejudice brings upon internal and external wars. This man was a victim of the system, but it still doesn't mean what he did was justified he needs to be severely punished to redeem his actions.

This is a really sad story that ends in another American tragedy. You can't help but to feel a little sympathy for the guy. If we can't, than there is a more serious problem laying here.

It is unfortunate that he was picked on and disrespected, but he was a psychiatrist. It is hard to see the warning signs in the people that you trust to seek them out in others.

Personal observation & question: why is it that most of the people that need the most psychiatric help go into the psychiatric field?

How can a murderer be mistreated ? This man was dead wrong. 13 dead, and 30 wounded by him. Who said that he was mistreated ?

"Many are calling him a terrorist because he is a Muslim"

Are you fucking serious? People are calling him a terrorist because he opened fire on American troops after screaming "Allahu Akbar." They just need to blow this fucker away and be done with it.

Can you blame them? Aren't we fighting a war with a group of terrorists that attacked us in the name of Allah? So he's picked on and then decides to shoot up a bunch of people. Makes perfect sense. Blame it on his devotion to religion. But if a devout Catholic or Hebrew person did the same thing, we wouldn't be saying it was because of his religion. we'd be saying it was because he was mentally disturbed. Let's not be so quick to play the race card.

I'd just like to see what measures he took to stop being picked on and taunted. before deciding that shooting up a room full of people is a good, and totally justifiable idea.

"The pervasive racism toward Muslims in the military is obviously at the heart of why Nidal Malik Hasan went to the breaking point. This is all too familiar as we have seen with the kids at Columbine. "

1. It pissing me off when people state their opinions as bold fact. Do we know everything about this person's life, genetic history and events that lead up to this? No? Ok, then it's a good time to shut the fuck up with biased opinions.

2. This person's trying to say that what led to this shooting is just like what happened in Columbine. But, they're also saying that what caused this shooting was racism. I know Columbine was a century ago, but I don't remember it having anything to do with racism.

This guy was an asshole let's not mince words. All he had to do if he didn't want to go to Iraq/Afghanistan, repeat after me "I am Gay." They would have kicked his ass out of the military so damn fast.

This guy was just a fundamentalist that wanted to kill people and believe he was justified. Period.

who can take the moral high ground? well, me for one. i have been very mistreated but i haven't murdered. i think any religious fanatic is capable of killing for their belief.

Maybe it explains his angst. The only knowledge a lot of those gentlman have of other cultures is what they see through their military experiences. Too bad the shooter kind of proved them right in a way.

Oh and another 2 cents, guys shouldn't key each others cars. It's kind of gay.

Being laughed at because of your religion is not an excuse for taking a life, let alone multiple lives in the name of your religion. I truely hope this scum lives long enough to face a firing squad, but then, that would be way too quick for the likes of him. BTW, how approiate was it that it was a female in a position of authority that stopped this madman?

Religion is a beautiful thing!

Many if not most opinions are forged by what we have been told or taught to believe. The ugly little gnome I call “organized religion” is nestled somewhere beneath most discriminations and supplies the nasty little devises used to keep them alive.

So many hatreds evolving to conflicts and or annihilations have been due to religious differences or beliefs. This is the woe of mankind and I think on many levels it is the woe of God as well. Man and there multiple religions that authorize them to distrust, mistreat, discriminate and/or alienate each other is appalling. My theory is that all religions are somewhat true and on many levels quite false. They all have the corruption of man swirled through out. This gives any one that needs it, the latitude to do what ever they deem necessary in God's name.

Perhaps, religion should be nothing more than simply based on each individuals merits of that which they do or don't do. After all, in the end I believe this is what it will come down to anyway, not which religion we professed to belong to or which race or nationality we are from.

The Golden Rule is quite possibly the only true religion.

As a closing note, I am saddened by the losses experienced by all involved. It is most unfortunate.

It's funny to read most the comments on here. They seem so scattered on facts and more like personal feelings... The dude was mistreated before the killing... he was called a terrorist before the killing because of his belief... Muslims = Terrorist. What he did was very wrong indeed, but to bash him as being some sort of enemy with no real motive is stupid. He was an outcast by the people he was fighting for... how would that make you feel? He will get what he knew was coming to him. Its really just sad to see such little logic coming from some of the people here with their choice of words...

Don't know why people have to hate others because of religion, ethnicity or culture. It leads to stupid crazy shit like this. I feel for the families, the dead, the people who harassed the killer into going overboard and the crazy fuck who went nuts.

I love How people are saying he's being called a terrorist just because he was amuslim but you know strangly i think i remember people calling the abortion clinic bomber a terrorist too and oh my god he was white andcrhistian who would have thunk it bottom line is If someone does somthing terrible they are bound to be labled what they really are a terrorist

explanation.... justification.... fuck you....

all religion is a mental illness whos to say his is worse than yours, just like nationalism it is an obsolete ideology. If mankind is to advance on this earth the rights of the individual must be respected. Including the right to believe in what ever spirit you believe lives in the sky. Personaly I still think it's all a distraction from the real problems we face...

"Has Tim McVeigh ever been called a terrorist? "

YES.

I am not really going with terrorist definition in this case. I am going to have to go with crazy, lone gunman who happened to be of the Islamic faith. I think he probably would have snapped at some point whether or not he was "hazed". If it were not that catalyst, it probably would have been something else.

Religion may or may not have had something to do with it, but I think he is too crazy to be considered a terrorist.

Well, yes, Tim McVeigh was called a terrorist. This would be because he *was* a terrorist.

I wondered how long it would be before liberal apologists start making excuses for this psycho. Was faster than expected.
