“Fort Bragg” was trending tonight on Twitter. Apparently, the North Carolina Army base produced some loud noises. There were quite a few complaints from foul-mouthed ingrates and ignoramuses:

Fort Bragg needs to calm it down with the bombing. It’s three nights in a row and I would love to sleep tonight.

But to some residents, it’s nothing new.

People act like this is the first time Fort Bragg is going off.

And many more on Twitter expressed their gratitude.

How can you get angry at Fort Bragg for keeping you awake, their keeping you alive.

Okay I’m so over hearing people complain about Fort Bragg making a lot of noise. They’re doing it for you, idiot.

— Courtney Haire (@c_leighann) March 14, 2013

Fort Bragg is trending cuz they’re being loud. Let them do their thing, that’s the SOUND OF FREEDOM!

— That NC State Guy (@ThatNCStateGuy) March 14, 2013

Amen.

Another possible explanation:

A special forces guy from fort Bragg was killed in Afghanistan. They were probably shooting those off in honor of him… #respect

R.I.P.:

The Defense Department has released the names of North Carolina and Georgia-based soldiers killed in Afghanistan.

The Pentagon says the soldiers died Monday in Jalrez District, Afghanistan when they were attacked by small arms fire.

Twenty-eight-year-old Capt. Andrew M. Pedersen-Keel, of South Miami, Fla., was one of those killed. Pedersen-Keel was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group at Fort Bragg.

God bless Capt. Pedersen-Keel — and all our troops. Bring the noise.
