Response to comment [from a Christian]: "News from yesterday: FBI Hunts Army Recruit Suspected of Plotting Jihad
"The FBI is searching for a recent Army recruit believed to be planning a
"Fort Hood-inspired jihad against U.S. soldiers," FoxNews.com has learned.
The alert, whose legitimacy was confirmed by military and law enforcement
officials, stated that a man identified as Booker had told friends of his
"intention to commit jihad." Booker, who is also known as Muhammad Abdullah
Hassan, was recruited by the U.S. Army in Kansas City, Mo., in February 2014 and
was scheduled to report for basic training on April 7. But he was discharged
last week, apparently after law enforcement authorities learned of his alleged
plan."

Response to comment [from a Christian]: "This man asked for time off. The jerks at the office refused to give him the proper form to properly request time off, and told him to, "come back tomorrow". He got angry and went out to his vehicle to get his gun and came back in and shot the supervisor and several others in the office, went back to his vehicle, drove around and shot many others..."
