Pentagon Refuses to Arm Military Recruiters – Tells Them to “Close the Blinds”

Army chief of staff Gen. Ray Odierno said on Friday he has no plans to arm recruiters or add security patrols to military recruitment centers in the wake of the Islamist terror attacks on unarmed, unguarded military offices in Chattanooga, Tennessee on Thursday. Odierno basically said he doesn’t trust his troops to handle their weapons properly.

Also on Friday, the Marine Corps ordered recruiters to not wear their uniforms at work for ‘force protection.’

Today the Pentagon added this– Military recruiters are being told to “close the blinds” for added safety.

Gretchen Carlson reported:

“ We have just confirmed here at FOX from the Pentagon, that the head of the US Northern Command has now issued a directive to authorize recruiters not to be able to carry weapons at the centers but he wants them to implement new security measures like “closing the blinds at the office

And Bobby Jindal:

“Friday, Governor Jindal issued an Executive Order authorizing the Adjutant General of the Louisiana National Guard to identify and arm national guard personnel at military facilities in order to protect those facilities. Governor Jindal also issued an Executive Order calling for the flags at all state buildings to be flown at half-staff until July 24, 2015 out of respect for the victims of the Chattanooga, Tennessee terrorist attacks.”

We need to fire everyone in government. All of them. We need people who’ll really fight this stuff, whatever the cost. It’s time.

State governors need to declare that ALL recruiting centers in there state require th service men to be armed, no exception. Fu*ck the Feds.

Otherwise the centers are to be shut down.

Why should governors listen to the Feds at all

When I was stationed (US Army) in Iran during the retaliative calm years of 72-74, we were not issued weapons because of our so-called diplomatic status and that we were officially a no show of force unit.

But, that did not stop us from carrying our own obtained through the Rod & Gun Club. Honestly, we had one there.

When they put in metal detectors, then it might matter. Until then, a gun at home, when you are at work, is mighty foolish.

The US government is following in the footsteps of the UK government. How long until we see a beheading on a US street ?

Not if a non-military person shoots first that jihadi.

America is going to fall soon anyway.

For that to occur, the government has to fall.

The suggestion box is now open.....:,)

Obama’s new U.S. Army consists of lesbians at the point and soldiers without guns. Add the cross dressers and you have a winning combination-—for the other side.

That is what is so scary, that the terrorist know of this foolish policy. Are our Recruiters to be the sacrificial lambs to the Islamist in Chief?

"The US government is following in the footsteps of the UK government. How long until we see a beheading on a US street ?"

It's already happened in a factory and the jihadi was stopped by an off duty police officer who shot him. The media quickly ignored the story after the initial reports.

My husband and I have our carry permits. I think I’ll call some of the local Recruiting stations to find out if they have any protection. Local folks, including us, will be glad to volunteer.

I heard on TV today that during WW2, all military personnel manning military-related facilities, bases, offices, recruiting centers, store-fronts, etc. had armed men manning them as a matter of course.

No one objected and no one even gave two "thoughts" about the policy.

So, now, thanks to the traitor in the White Mosque we can conclude that today's military men are more untrained, stupid and trigger-happy than they were in that forties WW2 era.

The nightmare continues.....
