The shooting that every one has heard about in Fort Hood was tragic on so
many levels and continues to be.

My utmost respect goes out to the armed forces and my deepest sympathies to
the victims and their families.

It was tragic that so many were injured and killed.

It is tragic that the shooter is only being identified as a suspect rather
than "the shooter". Damn it, when there is a room full of eye witnesses
there is no suspect, there is only the one that committed the crime, the
witnesses and the victims, Plain and simple.

It is tragic that when the truth and facts are so blatantly clear that there
will still be days and days of investigations long before there is a trial.

It is tragic that the trial will last for months, maybe years.

It is tragic in this case that there will be a need for a trial.

It is tragic that our country has been steered to believe that one does not
have to fulfill his obligations or have any accountability.

It is tragic that justice is seldom truly served.

It is tragic that our country is filled with so many spineless and corrupt
politicians that truly rely on the ignorant, which are so easily deceived,
to vote them into office.

It is tragic that those politicians are committed to insuring that their
ignorant constituency becomes even more ignorant with each passing
generation. Think Public Education.

It is tragic that out politicians have appointed themselves as "our
keepers".

It is tragic that there is no longer any honor in winning. Think trophies
for every body and no longer keeping score so that there are no winners.

I am truly grateful that I recognize all of this and know that not so deep
down, evil is fueling all of the tragedies.
