You continue to laud the "brave sacrifices" of the victims of the terrorist attack (1) , as if they were willingly giving their lives for their country here. Don't get me wrong, I definitely believe they were brave men and women. But they did not "lay down their lives" for their country...because they shouldn't have had to. Our troops should never have to be concerned about being viciously attacked within America's borders, especially when there has been reason all along to have removed Mr. Hassan from military service (2).
You should continue to praise the diversity and courage of the victims, though. They'd probably prefer that you do that instead of admit that the idea that religious extremism and religion-driven terrorism does happen and is preventable, but we might have to drop our (read: not actually mine) policy of political correctness.
