deliberate or accidental?
Y’know ... I REALLY want to know about these guys ... this is not normal.
recruiting standards??
Workplace violence. Surely there will be a dem fundraiser nearby in NC when Obama comes to drive by the memorial service.
5.56mm
This will be just the reason Libs will use to not let our service men be armed on base!
What the hell does that mean?
Shot himself?
With an M4???
I wonder if the government is screwing with the minds of some of our most susceptible members. Experiments of some kind.
The shooter is no longer active? What the heck does that mean?
In reaction to this, in the future armed guards will probably not be issued ammunition.
Active Duty ping.
Something wicked is festering in the shadows. New investigation needs to be done, and NOT by the current powers.
Hey. I came close to shooting an officer who ordered me to shoot prisooners. An unlawful order is not an order. Yes, there might be an odd circumstance where one moght be forced to do this, bt this was far from one of those circumstances.
He was discharged. Good grief the hip buzzphrases we have now...
Weird. Almost the same as what was posted online at WWAY TV in Wilmington, NC.

CAMP LEJEUNE, NC (WWAY) — A Camp Lejeune Marine standing guard at the base’s Main Gate is dead after he was shot by a bullet from another Marine’s rifle.
A news release from Camp Lejeune says at about 5:30 p.m., a Marine standing guard at the Main Gate discharged a M4 rifle. The shot hit and killed another Marine guard.
The Marine Corps has not yet released the name of the Marine who died as it tries to notify the Marine’s family.
According to the release, the Base Provost Marshal said the incident is being considered neither an act of terrorism nor an active shooter event.
The incident is currently under investigation by Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
Just read about it at Fox. Heartbreaking. Bewildering. Prayers for families, friends, and brothers.
Local DC NBC 2300 news said they haven’t ruled out an ‘accidental’ shooting...
Back in our day when ‘they’ had sidearms on the gates etc it was called ‘Quick Draw Practice’ and the (bad) result was ‘shooting ONESELF’ while trying to ‘clear leather’.
