Charles Joseph Whitman was an American engineering student and former U.S. Marine, who killed 16 people and wounded 32 others in a mass shooting rampage in and around the Tower of the University of Texas in Austin on the afternoon of August 1, 1966
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
Cicero gave a link which states it, I read it in another article as well. Another trained killer going nuts, I'm not surprised.
Well stated by another blind hater! I really thought you were better than that! Focus on his veteran status, and ignore the dominant mentality of blind hatred that drove him to be who he is...it must have been the military, right????
JUST BECAUSE SISSY SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO...BUT HE THINKS IT DOES!!!!! JUST BECAUSE MC1 SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO!!!!!
Lee Harvey Oswald was an American assassin and former Marine who, according to five government investigations, shot and killed President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963

With the history of mass shootings with veterans I think there is more of a link to that then there is regular hatred, they were made into killers so we shouldn't be surprised when they kill.

The movie was fake what the gunny said was real, do you want proof?
I never doubted the facts of what was said in the FICTIONAL video. I questioned your grasp on reality when you post a FICTIONAL video as if it were fact!
By the way Henry... Frazier Glenn Cross (alias Glenn Miller) was in the Marines, but that was long ago. Much more recently he was actively involved in YOUR MILITARY OUTFIT... Right Wing Militia!!!
Here is a pic (actual, not fictional) of Frazier Glenn Cross IN UNIFORM (Not a Marine uniform... it was one of YOURS) A Right Wing Militia!

Frazier Glenn Miller, Jr. was born Frazier Glenn Cross, Jr. in North Carolina, and named after his father. He dropped out of high school, and joined the United States Army and served in the Special Forces. He served two tours of duty in South Vietnam during the Vietnam War. He was discharged from the army as a sergeant in 1979, for distributing racist propaganda. On April 13, 2014, Miller was named the only suspect for the shooting earlier that day in suburban Kansas City that ended in the death of three people

Yah, Charles Joseph Whitman was a gifted student, an accomplished pianist, and an Eagle Scout...better be careful around them gifted students, pianists and especially Eagle Scouts! Are you really that naïve? How many murderers, wingnuts, rapists, etc. never served a day in the military? What's that ratio? Blind hatred is really a sad way to live life!!!! It dominates your ability to think, overshadowing rationality.
Hey...do you play piano? Were you in the scouts???? Were you an accomplished student? Maybe we should be worried about you going off the edge!!!!
JUST BECAUSE SISSY SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO...BUT HE THINKS IT DOES!!!!! JUST BECAUSE MC1 SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO!!!!!
Cross is just the type of person that DHS was warning about in 2009 when they issued their report: Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment
"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is warning law enforcement officials about a rise in 'rightwing extremist activity,' saying the economic recession, the election of America's first black president and the return of a few disgruntled war veterans could swell the ranks of white-power militias."
Right Wingers were insulted by the Bush Administration study... but over and over it turns out to be an accurate prediction of actual Right Wing Extremism and Terrorism in the USA!

Try reading about the history of Lee Harvey Oswald BEFORE he joined the Marines, and maybe you will be enlightened on what was driving him....it was not the fact he was in the Military...BLIND HATRED, like I said. It's referred to as BLIND HATRED for a reason...IT MAKES YOU BLIND TO FACTS, RATIONAL THOUGHT PROCESS AND REALITY!!!!
JUST BECAUSE SISSY SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO...BUT HE THINKS IT DOES!!!!! JUST BECAUSE MC1 SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO!!!!!
Yup another mass killing by another veteran, and where did he learn to use such things..........

There are a few embarrassing screwups who served in the US Marines... One of the worst examples who's a Right Wing Domestic Propagandist...

He never learned to blow up federal buildings and day care centers in the Military... He learned that skill from his Anti Govt accomplices after his time in the army. This wasn't a Military C-4 bomb, it was a Terrorist Fuel-Fertilizer bomb.

Nine of the 13 plastic barrels were filled with ammonium nitrate and nitro-methane The other four were mixed with the fertilizer and about four gallons of diesel fuel.
But more important... What fueled McVeigh's hatred that he would blow up a building full of civilians including kids???

Yup, more BLIND HATRED!!!
Quoted Text
McVeigh claimed to have been a target of bullying at school, and he took refuge in a fantasy world where he imagined retaliating against the bullies. According to his authorized biography, "his only sustaining relief from his unsatisfied sex drive was his even stronger desire to die." McVeigh was introduced to firearms by his grandfather. He told people he wanted to be a gun shop owner and sometimes took firearms to school to impress his classmates. McVeigh became intensely interested in gun rights after he graduated from high school, as well as the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, and read magazines such as Soldier of Fortune. He briefly attended Bryant & Stratton College before dropping out.
All BEFORE joining the military....but hey, he was a Vet of the Gulf war, so that MUST be why he did what he did. Henry, please, you are really better than this...stop the blindness!!!!
