A Muslim convert who said he was opposed to the U.S. military shot two soldiers outside an Arkansas recruiting station, killing one of the soldiers, police said Monday.
"This individual appears to have been upset with the military, the Army in particular, and that's why he did what he did," Little Rock Police Lt. Terry Hastings said in a phone interview.
Fucking hell. These men should have never become victims of a war on their own soil. What is truly happening here? The story focuses on a "Muslim Convert", I fear this will further demonize peaceful Muslims in this country. So this means one thing. This is a war of religions/ideologies/beliefs/power...and sadly it will be brought to our shores (already has with the growing suicides and crimes/murders committed by our own soldiers). My heart goes out to ALL victims of this - The 9/11 victims, the Afghan/Iraqi Innocents, our soldiers and their families. This fucking mess needs to end somehow, coming to that end somehow is what is creating the fucking mess.
R.I.P. Private Long, thank you for your service
