Texas leaving the union?

    When I heard about the shooting today in Texas at Fort Hood I was wondering if Texas Gov. Rick Perry had decided to leave the union and if this was the first shots in his leaving the union.
    Texas Gov. Rick Perry attended a tea party where the people where against the government of the United States and some in the audience yelled out “Secede!”
    Gov. Perry called the people at the event “patriots” and suggested Texas might secede from the union.
    But today I saw him on TV being interviewed by the press….He had no details of the shooting at Fort Hood but he said that he supported the military and had good relations with the Federal government so I guess this was not the opening round of Texas leaving the union.

   I watched a lot of the TV reporting on the shooting at Fort Hood.  All the networks had “experts” that knew nothing and told us nothing that we did not already know… Some of them said they had been to Fort Hood.  Some even were in the military and had been to Fort Hood but they had zero useful information.  It was just a waste of airtime.   Poor CNN had a big Google Map and kept showing us buildings.  Later we find out it was the wrong buildings.
  Faux “news” (aka Fox “news”) had a big scoop … the other networks had a photo of the shooter and knew his name and that he was in the military and a doctor and Faux “news” had his cousin on the telephone talking and they were asking him questions.  I bet CNN news people are home now in their beds crying their eyes out.

  Twelve people killed and 31 wounded by a Psychiatrist!  A doctor that was in the military to help service men and deal with their stress and problems and he starts shooting them…  You have to think this is a dream and I am going to wake up…But it was real.  We have put our service men through hell and their families and now they are being shot at home on a military base by a doctor.  How sad…
   All we can do is pray for the people AND try and find out what went wrong… How did the doctor get two handguns?  One report was that all day he was being talked to by CID officers and then he pulls out loaded guns and starts shooting.  Someone fucked up I am sorry to say.
