Islamist terror strikes US again

"Thursday afternoon, a radicalized Muslim US Army officer shouting
"Allahu Akbar!" committed the worst act of terror on American soil
since 9/11. And no one wants to call it an act of terror or associate
it with Islam.
What cowards we are. Political correctness killed those patriotic
Americans at Ft. Hood as surely as the Islamist gunman did. And the
media treat it like a case of non-denominational shoplifting.
This was a terrorist act. When an extremist plans and executes a
murderous plot against our unarmed soldiers to protest our efforts to
counter Islamist fanatics, it’s an act of terror. Period.
When the terrorist posts anti-American hate-speech on the Web;
apparently praises suicide bombers and uses his own name; loudly
criticizes US policies; argues (as a psychiatrist, no less) with his
military patients over the worth of their sacrifices; refuses, in the
name of Islam, to be photographed with female colleagues; lists his
nationality as "Palestinian" in a Muslim spouse-matching program, and
parades around central Texas in a fundamentalist playsuit — well, it
only seems fair to call this terrorist an "Islamist terrorist."
But the president won’t. Despite his promise to get to all the facts.
Because there’s no such thing as "Islamist terrorism" in ObamaWorld."

-well, it
only seems fair to call this terrorist an "Islamist terrorist."
And if he had been Baptist? How many times do you know of Protestant
Christian
mothers and fathers killing their children because God told them to do it?
Lots...
Hold the sabre rattling until you can see the enemy through the fog.

I would define this in the broad category of a "workplace killing".
The killing in Orlando was the same thing. The old expression
of "going postal" still applies.

Um, the guy in Orlando killed less than 1/10 the number of people
and wasn't screaming allah fuckbar while doing it. Furthermore,
his motives weren't religious.

Workplace killings have a variety of central motives.
Usually it is somebody angry with his supervisor
or with fellow workers. Sometimes an estranged
husband or boyfriend kills the woman of his
affections at her work place and takes a few others
along too.
IN 1999 the business section of the Wall Street Journal
had an article on it
***
I posted this in 1999---which I took from an article in the Wall
Street Journal`
****
Any the profile points of a trouble maker (the type that might
shoot you) are:
1) The individual is "profoundly narcissistic, exhibiting an overwhelming
sense of entitlement, and a predilection for depreciating others".
Obviously the individual does not take criticism "well", considers
themselves superior to others.
2) "Co-workers describe them as sour personalities"
3) "Interpret everyday events in an idiosyncratic and pernicious way"
4) Take themselves as "perpetual victims of injustice"
5) They are control freaks.
6) "They make their co-workers uncomfortable, even anxious".
7) "They are devotees of conspiracy theories"
8) "They are prone to multiple gun ownership and exhibit excessive
interest in paramilitary groups, law enforcement, survivalist
organizations" etc.
9) "In their minds, mistakes are always somebody else's fault.
10) "As a consequence, the file one grievance after another. Formal
employment may become subordinate to their career of litigation.
And they have drawers filed with legal papers".
11) "They make mountains out of mole hills"
12) "The harbor persistent and inappropriate anger. Often they express
interest in and approval of violent acts reported in the press: espousal
abuse, shooting sprees, capital punishment".
13) "They belong to fringe right wing, antigovernment or racist political
groups"
14) "They make cryptic but ominous remarks like "Sooner or later, everybody
gets there's"
15) "They are task rather than people oriented". That is, they are often
good workers in a technical sense, paying obsessive attention to detail".
"But they are uniquely unempathetic and insensitive to others".
16) "They are utterly humorless" "Should they attempt to joke, it
typically involves an inappropriate subject-dismemberment, the Holocaust".
17) "They may have a minor criminal record"
18) "They may have a history of drug or alcohol abuse"
The person who wrote this said that if an employee has a large number of
these characteristic, they need special handling to be gotten rid of.
This means that any candidate for trouble will not have all these
characteristics. We don't know enough about person who did the shooting
to say. Religious freaks are often a class by themselves.
But the fact is that the killing occurred at the work site and
the victims were fellow workers. He is not somebody from the outside.

Also
Grudge killings in the military were encountered in Vietnam in the
form of "fragging".

You're not addressing a rational human being, Larry. I don't refer to
