The misogynist military?

There is not much meaningful coverage in the American press of the shooting deaths of two female US sailors by a male colleague in Bahrain but the Gulf Daily News out of the tiny island nation is digging up some of the details. It appears that the alleged shooter had previously attacked one of the women yet, despite being under restrictions, was still allowed to carry arms. More of the terrible pattern of violence against women in the US armed forces?
