Just heard something about people being told to turn off their furnaces/air conditiong...........what on earth could that mean?

It was General Honore on CNN; said he heard it himself.

Fort Hood has active gangs as well, including M13. I don’t know how bad the problem is now but it was the subject of several articles a couple of years ago.

Thanks, prayers and thanks to your son too. May God keep them and all of our soldiers safe. My son has only been at boot camp 2 days, so he probably doesn’t even know what's happening.

I can see how news like this can be upsetting to soldiers and their families everywhere. I hope your boy is deploying somewhere safe when he returns to duty; else extra prayers for angels at his side.

Rich Sanchez of CNN said they were armed with “F 16s”

Idiot.

KCEN-TV has been told by Ft Hood sources that four SWAT team members have been wounded...not known if they’re counted among the 20 already reported. The SWAT members were shot while the second suspect was cornered. They’re still awaiting confirmation, but they’re also hearing that there were only two suspects and both are now in custody.
The emergency sirens have ceased sounding on base.

“...active gangs...”

Thank you, this is a very serious problem across America, that’s why I vigilantly worded my comment; now someone should ask me what I would then do, if one of these groups is exposed.

Unconfirmed reports of shots fired at a soldier’s residence, per KCEN-TV via police scanners.
