"Not even soldiers on an American military base such as Fort Hood are immune from the unique threat from powerful and increasingly lethal handguns. Army Major Malik Nadal Hasan is a psychiatrist who treated returning vets suffering from PTSD and other issues of mental illness."

Unconfirmed news outlets initially reported that Hasan used two privately-owned handguns, a semiautomatic handgun and a .357 revolver to murder 13 people (12 soldiers and 1 civilian) and wound 28 others before being wounded by a policewoman responding to the scene." ... |

One never is completely safe from all dangers, but the soldiers at Ft Hood, just like most citizens, were restrained in their ability to defend themselves... and because of that, more died.
