Shooting at Ft.Hood,Tx.

The construction company I work for in Temple does a lot of work at Fort Hood. Three of our people got caught in the base lock-down and couldn't get off post until late. Thank goodness they weren't near the shooting.

I go to Fort Hood quite often, and as was explained on TV by one of the generals, the soldiers do not carry weapons, only the MPs and the private security officers at the access control points (gates). It's a shame they don't, this guy probably wouldn't have lasted three seconds after the first shot.
