Um.. wasn't this guy in the medic division? Medics are non-combatants and usually aren't issued military weapons. So, that would mean this was done with weapons of his own. Since he wasn't in the dorm and didn't have to put his personal weapons in a weapons box, it's kind of hard on a base that size to know that he was brandishing a weapon and was going to go apeshit.
It would be nice to actually hear something about the story without having to hear "muslim decent, international terrorism" in the same sentence every 2 minutes. He had a muslim background.. so fucking what?
The military is a different world. If you need supervision or help, there is something wrong with you. You aren't a true soldier... you aren't fit for combat etc etc etc..
Dude was just a nutcase with a gun on a huge military base. I don't see how the base or the army can be at fault here really other than if he was giving complaint reports about harassment, and they didn't stop it. Not an excuse, but it would have been easier to point out if he was going to go postal or not had they actually paid attention to it.
