Q: What local gun store provided the guns for the last two Fort Hood mass murderers, as well as to a guy who was arrested for planning yet another on-base killing spree?

CNN had a guest on talking about the gun culture among the soldiers at Fort Hood, and how they are paranoid about their guns because they don't trust the government.

Okay. Wow.

When soldiers need help with mental issues and PTSD where is the Government? If you were a soldier and were continued to be sold down the river don't you think you would lose trust?
