Political Correctness Got 13 Americans Killed at Ft. Hood
I have been warning you that political correctness gets people killed. The terrorist attack at Ft. Hood is an example of political correctness directly contributing to peoples’ death:
His [Nidal Malik Hasan] fellow students complained to the faculty about Hasan’s “anti-American propaganda,” but said a fear of appearing discriminatory against a Muslim student kept officers from filing a formal complaint.
Read that again.
Political correctness is killing people, and it’s only going to get worse.
So in the wake of this attack, is the Army concerned about the safety of its bases? Is it concerned about the possibility of other Muslims in the Army harboring similar feelings as Hasan? Apparently not.
They’re more concerned about the potential backlash against the other Muslims in the Army.
The Army chief of staff said Sunday that he is concerned that speculation about the Muslim faith and the motives of the accused Fort Hood gunman could spark retaliation against Muslin soldiers and hurt diversity within the branch’s ranks.
“I think that’s something else we need to be very careful about, and I think the speculation could potentially heighten backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers,” said Gen. George W. Casey Jr. on ABC’s “This Week.”
Gen. Casey said he has instructed his commanders to be on the lookout for that reaction to the killings at the Texas post.
The general said that while what happened at Fort Hood was a tragedy, “I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here.”
General Casey needs to understand that type of thinking is what allowed Hasan to carry out his attack in the first place. But I wouldn’t expect anything else from the current crop of military leaders we have in this country. They are political beings dressed in military uniforms.
