I guess it’s a “gun free zone”?? No more. Israeli soldiers are in deep shit if they’re caught WITHOUT a loaded gun at all time. We have to realize, this is frickin war, there is no “safe” zone anymore. If a bunch of soldiers can be gunned down, on a military base, with no recourse available to them, we are indeed in bigger trouble than we thought.

We do have to realize it's a war.
Drawing from my own experiences I can relate to you how anti-gun the military is. The anti-gun attitude does change from region to region.

If you live in the barracks you are required to keep your personnel firearms in the armory. You get a weapons card for it just like you do for your G.I. weapon. You are not allowed to have ammunition in your room or vehicle.

If you live in base housing you must register your weapons with the base Provost Marshall and you are supposed to keep the weapons and ammunition locked up separately.

You are not allowed a weapon in the cab of your vehicle. The exception is if you are going hunting and have a base permit to hunt.

I live in a state that allows you to keep a loaded weapon in your car. My wife is retired military and works on a military installation in a questionable part of town. I asked her to carry a weapon with her when she goes to and from work. She will not because she is not allowed to have it in her car on the installation.

Thousands of people come to work on various military installation everyday and you can bet most of them are not armed as they don't want to risk a career ending njp if they are caught with it. This creates a target rich enviorment for a terrorist. We need to change this.

As I said, the attitudes towards guns changes by location. And one last thing. The Military does not give a crap whether you have a ccw or not.

Also, there is no "safe" Muslim anymore. If a US born, active duty field rank army officer can turn on a dime and become a killing machine, then so can any Muslim walking our streets.

If I ever had doubts to carry, they have been removed because now I have more fear of Muslim murderers than regular criminals attempting a mugging or carjacking.

To hell with PC in my daily routines during which, when given the opportunity, I will make my revulsion of Muslims known.
