I agree, compassion is in order.
But do we have compassion for the millions of Americans who cannot afford health care or insurance? Do we have compassion for the poor in society? Do we have compassion for the immigrant, legal or not? Or is our compassion constrained by our selfishness? Questions worth asking.
All people of good will have compassion. We compassionate all innocent parties and abominate the evil act of this alleged warrior of the United States Army.
I have compassion for the United States too, so I hope there will be no mercy shown to the merciless.
I have no joy in executions but sometimes they need to take place for the safety of this country against cold blooded murderers, not just if they shoot people in DC, not just the "sane". I also hope that the military will wake up and take care of business in future.
seems to be me the only compassion being shown by the main steam media nut jobs is for Major Nidal Hasan. This poor tortured Muslim man that was suffering so from just the thought of having to go to war and who just couldn't help himself from pulling the trigger on 13 innocent people. Makes me want to puke just listening to these liberal loons.
