Text of Obama's Remarks on Fort Hood Shooting
ABC News ^ | April 3, 2014 | The Associated Press

Text of President Barack Obama's remarks at a Chicago restaurant about Wednesday's shooting incident at Ford Hood, Texas:

———

I just got off the phone with Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Sandy Winnefeld to get the latest report on the situation at Fort Hood.

Obviously, we're following it closely. The situation is fluid right now, but my national security team is in close contact with not just the Defense Department, but the FBI. They are working with folks on the ground to determine exactly what happened, to make sure that everybody is secure. And I want to just assure all of us that we are going to get to the bottom of exactly what happened.

You know, any shooting is trouble.

"Romanian Cugir semiautomatic rifle" [with scope].

According to Wiki.

I had found a more detailed description, but can't find it now.

No matter what he’s commenting on - unless it’s about an uncoming fundraiser - he always looks so very bored.

"I wonder if he will sign an executive order to outlaw guns in America? You know he would like to"

Nah. That's too drastic.

He'll disband the military completely since work place violence happened twice within 4 years.

"Not terror its “soldier to soldier”."

Is this a new term we are to use from now on? First it's work place violence,now it's soldier to soldier. m'kay.

Saying that it "soldier to soldier" diminishes this situation. As in, Oh,it's just boys doing what boys do.

Crazy man to humans is more appropriate.

Same here...he has kind of ruined the word.

Try saying 'folk dancing' - there's that little reflux.

Try saying 'Volkswagen' - same deal.

Good dancing and motoring but I'm all 'folk-ed' out of B. Hussein O.'s use of the word.

'Period'.
