If they were the regular type that you can just buy legaly over-the-counter that's one thing. But, if they were the armor piercing restricted kind that are not available to the general public, and are used by some Army units, that is something else. If they were the armor piercing rounds(and some people certainly know what kind they were by now), then where,from who,and how did Maj. Hasan get them?

Now he stands accused of having attempted to contact that enemy. He should be charged with treason.

Wisdom does indeed come with age. Second, I really like your articles. Having said the above, it's time for something that Mao actually had right, along with the Vatican: confession is good for the soul — and, I believe, good for America if done by all the 60s/70s radicals whose legacy has ruined my country, and perhaps civilization itself. Please write an article examining your and your cohort's complicity in the disasters caused by PC and M/C and the ruination of the academy. It's not sufficient to, in your new wisdom, merely to fret at the results of the generations long propaganda in which you actively participated. Roger, first understand I appreciate your viewpoint.

I apologize in advance for repeating a refrain, but using the language of those who intend to destroy your way of life...makes one an unwitting accomplice. Our Machiavellian media is NOT "mainstream" and the politics of corrosion of principles is not "correctness". "Hasanicide" is a natural by-product of the political corrosive effect of rampant and unchecked leftism. Through the prism of leftism, the "enemy" is not those who wish to kill us and destroy our way of life. Those folks have "root causes" and to whom we owe a deep bow, bended knee and slobbering apology. No, the enemy...is you. The "bitter clinger", the Ugly American with the "wrong kind" of patriotism. You, who "jump to conclusions" and need to be fed a steady diet of lies, distortions and filtered facts in order to be "kept in line". Where did Hasan get his ideas? In a mosque preaching hate against you, right on your soil from what some reports indicate. But they are probably "jumping to conclusions", after all. And that hate they preach against you...probably sounds very much like what you would hear from William Ayers to Michael Moore to Jimmy Carter...if you would just listen close enough. If YOU hate...you are bitter. If THEY hate....well, your own countrymen and your Presidents have apologized for your existence, for your beliefs, for your actions and for your attitudes. They have "root causes", ....and you deserve it. The stepping stones from Wiliam Ayers to Michael Moore to Jimmy Carter to Hasan form a pathway of political corrosion …but, I think it is high time we stop using leftist linguistics…there is no “correctness” about it.
