Soldier kills three at US army base

People die every day by the thousands.
Does it really matter the how, when or where?

This planet is not a safe place to live for fragile creatures like Homo Sapiens.
Sadly, it only seems to matter to the newshounds who want to make a big deal out of it. From star personalities on down to the grunts in the military.

I feel for every family member that loses a loved one but, if I dwelled on it constantly, I would become so despondent, I wouldn't be able to get out of bed.

Vote loser, will never happen even if would ever be possible with the world situation.

It's a nice idea though.

True that but the thought of some people benefitting from the demise of others just doesn't sit right with me.

But that's how the world turns around I suppose.

As long as their are men and nations, there will be war. You can't pin the whole thing on the Military Industrial Complex. We've been waging war and killing each other since the dawn of our own existence.

Nope, I pin it on the weak minded pissed off fools who think killing is the answer to all their problems.
Though I do raise an eyebrow at the low brows who profit from this line of thinking and I don't put anything past these greedy SOBs and their desire to sell more weapons. Oh well, we have tons of people their weapons can be used on.

Let's just call it population control that's more efficient than kismet or homosexuality.
Fort Hood has some duty slots open. Who wants a promotion?

HFC? Helicopter Flight Controller?
We call those guys "pilots"

Also, We called troopies who were insistent on shirking promotion...
Professional Privates.

Not a compliment.

HFC is/was when I was in the R.C.A.F. talk for a happy 'x' civilian,
'x' and the rest of the word rhymes with ducking and clucking
