Stand by.
I just knew that, with all the rational thinkin’ on FR, there must be some fellow Scots here... ‘-)
Just checked your FRProfile — OTOH, maybe not...
Btw, this is the Sheppard AFB thread.
Where does it say here “two confirmed killed?”
You do have this post at post no. 11 which I won’t repeat, but it did address a rumor — no confirmation of anything.
Thanks for bearing with my inappropriate, and lame attempt at some late night humor, Cindy.
I hope everyone is safe at the base. Our troops have a big enough job to do without being attacked in their own (supposedly) safe-zone, and then see their attackers defended by the military brass and the left-wing political establishment.
News report from KAUZ TV. (Local area)

Gun scare at Sheppard Air Force Base
SNIPPET: “Officials at Sheppard Air Force Base say a man was arrested late Sunday night following reports of an armed man on base.
The public affairs office tells 7News officers located the man, who did have a gun, and took him into custody.”
No it's a technical training center. All Air Force Basic training is at Lackland, in San Antonio. The teach a/c maintenance, including the electronics. Also has a basic flight school, T-6, T-38. Many to most of the student pilots are from NATO countries.
Yeah, there’s a lotta Scots-Irish blood in the South, and lots of Southerners on Free Republic.
I do think there’s some kind of connection to rationality and Scots blood. I once worked on a large project in the south of England, and the Scots were the most no-nonsense, hardest working, problem-solving bunch on the crew (besides us Yanks, of course!).
At around 10 PM? On Sunday night? doesn't seem likely.
FRom Twitter...Sheppard Air Force Base:
—Rumors of casualties at Sheppard incorrect; was an individual with shotgun, but was apprehened with no shots fired, no injuries.

Thanks Caww,
When you get to post no. 70; you have permission to reprint it here.
I already have a note in to the moderator to change the title of the thread.
You have a good evening now.
You also have my permission to repost post no. 107.
Thanks Caww.
At around 10 PM? On Sunday night?
And after Fort Hood, and days after base gate crashes and just hours after Gadahn's video.
No speculation on my part Moe.
I’m only reporting news updates as they come in.
Thanks.
Thank you Moderator.
That is our family crest, We of the MacFherson clan.
say Cat, why not put a collection of these Touch Not The Cat logos on your page? They’re cool.
I landed there once.
Took off also.
