Common African American name. Main shooter was a major.

Just in time, too. I have to go over there to help the widow of a government official get 80 million in construction bribes out of Nigeria. She emailed me, and it was all caps, so I figured she was really desperate.

Neighbor's wife just called; she needs me to show her how to attach a doc file to a Gmail. Good news is I'll drive over, show her, wait for it to upload via the dial-up, and by then it's dinner time and they'll probably feed me.

Hasan is a common African American name? That's news to me.

It's a common Middle Eastern name and I worked with an Ethiopian with that last name.

It's a common Islamic name, which means he could be from a multitude of different countries on several different continents. Don't mean nothin' till it does.

And where is Ethiopia? Around here it common in the African American community. First and middle common with the younger crowd in Philadelphia. The shooter was a recent convert and chose the new last name.

Yeah.

I won't be surprised if he was born in the U.S.

And Ethiopia, Egypt, and Eritrea are considered part of the Middle East.

Either way, speculation about the name is premature.

For those in IAH, there are a few places to donate blood, which is desperately needed.

Tell that to Bob Geldolf and his famous song.
