Here is a video clip of the Army chief of staff testifying on April 7th that it isn’t necessary to arm soldiers on military bases, such as Fort Hood attack, because:
“We have adequate law enforcement on those bases to respond … You take the Fort Hood incident number two, the one where I was the commander of Third Corps, those police responded within eight minutes and that guy was dead.” (This discussion starts at 1:57 into the video.)
It is true that 8 minutes is a “pretty quick” response time, as the General says, but to say that eight minutes where 3 people were killed and another 14 were injured is “adequate” is pretty amazing.

When seconds count the police are only minutes away.
He might hold a different view if he or one of his most loved family members had been shot in Obama’s “workplace violence by muslim jihadi”.
I’d rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.
The Army Chief of Staff has a PSD assigned to him. How convenient.
“workplace violence by disgruntled mentally ill co-worker”....................
After all, how many unarmed people could a terrorist kill in 8 minutes? Certainly not more than 70 or 80.
The question to ask is “Is this general a Dorkbama the Muslim or Bubba the Boinker selectee?”
If yes: The man/woman/whatever is most probably a dork.
If no: the man/woman/whatever is most probably OK.
Said the Army chief of staff who is protected by armed security at his worksite. Our entire military general officer corps is completely coward, and feminized.
I laugh when people wish for a military overthrow of Obama. Who in their right mind wants THESE guys in charge after the revolt? They would give all of America the childlike existence of life on a military base.
“If no: the man/woman/whatever is most probably OK.”
Doubtful. Tell me the General or Admiral we have had appointed by Bush or Clinton who was one bit better and less politically correct.
Realistically, Schwartzkopf was the last true general that wasn’t essentially a pussy with an MBA.
The chief of staff has armed guards surrounding him at all times.
To him, the 3 dead were “acceptable collateral damage”
Always that way when you aren’t the damaged.
Enought time for a terrorist to kill our soldiers. IMHO, this general is one of 0bola’s butt boys..
He should tell that to the victim’s families.
“IMHO, this general is one of 0bola’s butt boys..”
Or, he’s either working hard to become one or he just want’s
to keep his job and retirement, at the expense of Americans
lives.
Either way he’s a pud and he needs to be fired.
Our leadership has been destroyed by political correctness and feminism.
Gun Free Zones.
Thank you Joe Biden, what a great concept that you had.

This response is plain "stupid." If our armed forces were actually "armed" the killer would have been down in seconds.
Maybe the commander is trying to justify the unfortunate decision to disallow arms on base to support those decision makers with disordered minds like Clinton and Obama. Maybe the commander wants to keep his job.
It has been well documented that Muslims in the military are a liability, as evidenced by many incidents on foreign soil over the years.
8 minutes is “adequate”, huh?
Not for the people being shot, it isn’t.
Carry - everywhere, always, and regardless. Your LIFE is more important than any law.
