There Is Nothing Intelligent to Say about a Massacre

The big story tonight is a massacre at Fort Hood in Texas, apparently a shooting by Major Nadal Malik Hasan, who (Crooks and Liars reports) "was prone to making outrageous remarks about Muslims 'defending themselves'" and who had also (his cousin claims) been subject to anti-Muslim harassment. There's a lot still to come out about this, especially since TPM is reporting now that contrary to initial reports Hasan is still alive.
