soldiersalutehalfmastflag The details are still filtering in, but what is known is that shots were fired from a passing SUV on a military recruitment office in Little Rock, Arkansas Monday fatally wounding a soldier and wounding a recruiter, though he is expected to fully recover from his injuries.  According to AP, police stopped an SUV a short time after the shooting that matched the description of witnesses.  The driver did not resist arrest and a search of his vehicle yielded an assault rifle.

CNN.com has reported that the FBI has begun an investigation to determine whether there is jurisdiction for federal prosecution.

We will provide updates as more details become known.

    The man caught should be EXECUTED for treason – killing a soldier on American soil during a time of war. I am not surprised this is happening give then current administration’s liberal attack on the military going on – but I hope the Justice dept hangs this guy. If not – just turn him loose in the general population for a few minutes, and he should be taken care of just fine.
