MSNBC&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2014\/04\/04\/rachel-maddow-media-fort-hood-shooter_n_5090327.html\">Rachel Maddow criticized the media<\/a> for being lazy after the Fort Hood shooting for concluding that Ivan Lopez&#8217; tour of Iraq was the reason that he killed three others before turning the gun on himself; <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;If we think of every other mass shooting in America as somehow particular to the circumstances of that shooting but this one as explained away as &#8216;Oh he was an Iraq vet&#8217;&#8230; not only does that not help us understand what happened here, it is an offense against every other veteran who right now is getting that stigma shoveled onto them by a lazy civilian world and a lazy civilian media who find this dangerous veteran stereotype to be an easier thing to point to than America has a bad mass shooting problem.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m no fan of this Maddow fella, but at least he got this one right, although, I&#8217;m thinking that he is gong to turn it around on us and blame the lack of new gun laws.
