The shooter gunned down a man and a woman before offing himself.

I'm more inclined to think this may be a love-triangle sort of thing than a jihad sort of thing.

Love triangle, 2013 style?

Of course, it could just be an all-homo love triangle, in today's "gay and proud" USMC.

Fox reported three dead - two men and a woman. I’m suspecting lover’s triangle.

One dead is a woman. Think some jealousy involved

Further proof of the insanity of disarming everyone aboard a military base. All Marines are riflemen. If the victims had had a weapon available, this might have ended with just the shooter dead.

so, lemme get this straight...

a barricaded gunman, on a Marine Corp base, and they required a lockdown of everybody else, including, im assuming, Marines trained to handle themselves in a freefire zone ???

this country needs to buy some lead lined BALLZ from china...
