Re: Fort Hood - Twelve killed, including gunman; 31 wounded
I heard today that he is, in fact, wounded and in the hospital. But, I still think that going to Leavenworth is still being too nice to the guy. I don't know how well they treat prisoners there, but any day that guy is given a breath to breathe he's a lucky SOB.

Leavenworth is hard time. It won't be a joy ride for him at all. But they won't kill him, that's the problem with America, were to nice to murders, molester's and well basically any criminal.
Re: Fort Hood - Twelve killed, including gunman; 31 wounded
I was actually talking about that to a co-worker today, about the fact that murderers and hardened criminals get off too easy while in the prison system. Three meals a day, exercise, a place to sleep and some of the luxuries we on the outside have to purchase (TV/Internet).
I know it's kind of morbid, but I would love to see a slow type of torture to be done to these people so they can understand the kind of pain that he caused to the victims/families.

The United States military is just one giant looney bin. All the remaining retards in there need to do the rest of the world a favour and blow their stupid little imperialist bodies to bits.

The Ft. Hood Hero: Who is Kimberly Munley?
Quote:
The west side of Killeen, Texas is like countless other places in America's heartland, freshly carved out of prairie pastures with wide streets in bucolic neighborhoods like "Sunflower Estates" and "Bridgewood." But on a glorious cloudless fall day, the flags at the home sales center nearby are at half mast in honor of the 13 fallen at Ft. Hood, victims of a gunman whose deadly attack was stopped thanks to a petite, long-haired blonde mom from the neigborhood.
Sgt. Kimberly Munley, 34, a civilian Department of Defense police officer at the base, is credited with stopping the firing rampage of U.S. Army Major Nidal Hasan at the Soldier Readiness Center within a few minutes after he launched his attack. The center is a quick five minute drive from Munley's home, past the new strip centers and the high school football field along wide Cross Creek Boulevard, but a world away from the horrors inflicted in one of the worst incidents of soldier-on-soldier violence in U.S. Army history. (Read TIME's report: "Stresses at Fort Hood Were Likely Intense for Hasan")
Munley, described by neighbor Brooke Beato, as "very petite, with long blonde hair and a strong personality," was credited by base officials with preventing further carnage by aggressively engaging Hasan as he shot at her. She rounded a corner, took aim at Hasan and brought him down, officials said. "It was an amazing and an aggressive performance by this police officer," base commander Lt. Gen. Robert Cone said. It also was a tactic straight out of recent lessons learned from the 2007 Virginia Tech shooting, when first responders waited for additional backup before engaging the shooter.
"She walked up and engaged him," said Lt. Gen. Cone told Associated Press. As a member of the base Special Reaction Team, Munley had learned that "if you act aggressively to take out a shooter, you will have less fatalities," Cone said.
Soon after Munley fired at Hasan, taking him down, she herself fell wounded and police radios quickly sent out an "Officer down" call. Wounded three times in the arm and leg, Munley is in stable condition after undergoing surgery Friday to repair damage to an artery. Base officials said she wishes she could have acted even faster and saved more lives, and she spent Thursday evening calling friends and colleagues, expressing those regrets.
While Thursday's shooting sent a shockwave through the tight-knit Killeen community, Beato, whose husband is an Army captain, said she was not surprised when Munley's name surfaced as the police officer who ended the shooting. "It was just like her - she carries herself with confidence," Beato said.
Beato is a 30-year-old mother of four whose children often play with Munley's daughters, ages 12 and 3, in the quiet cul-de-sac. "I couldn't believe what happened, but when I heard what she did," says Beato of her neighbor, "I believed that because of who she is - I know her."
Munley, who worked as a police officer for five years in North Carolina where her father, Dennis Barbour, once served as mayor of Carolina Beach, is a talented shooter and member of the base's Special Reaction Team which trains for the possibility of events like Thursday's shooting rampage. She also is a passionate fan of Twitter and once news of her actions spread, her followers began to blossom in number - among them country singer Dierks Bentley who posed for a photo with the petite police officer at the fort's annual July Fourth FreedomFest. The photo is posted on her Twitter page along with a brief biographical quote: "I live a good life...a hard one, but I go to sleep peacefully at night knowing that I may have made a difference in someone's life."
Wow amazing story. To have the courage to go up to that guy, and take him down is unbelievable. Her getting shot 3 times too wow.
