My apologies to you. I posted a thread on this same subject not very long after you put this thread up; I didn't see your thread. However, when I did see that you had already started a conversation about this event, I reported my own thread and asked that the moderators merge mine in with yours. Again, my apologies.

I came to CD to try to find out if any more news was being posted about this incident on CD than was being reported on the national cable channels.

No need to apologize at all, but thanks.

I'll be more careful next time.

I think I'm watching FOX news on this one........regardless which channel, I just saw a map of the area of the base where these shootings were reported to have taken place. The map indicates that the shooting took place in three different areas, and that each location was about a half-mile from the other locations. That sounds pretty coordinated to me. What do you think?
