Navy to Charge Officer Who Fired on Islamist During Chattanooga Terror Attack
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 08/01/15 | Jim Hoft

Navy Lt. Commander will reportedly be charged for shooting at Chattanooga terrorist white chattanooga

Lt Commander Timothy White and Islamist killer Muhammad Abdulazeez

A report at The Navy Times in July confirmed that one of the Marines shot during the Chattanooga terrorist attack exchanged fire with the terrorist. Navy Lt. Cmdr Timothy White also shot back at the terrorist.

But rather than being celebrated as a hero, Lt. Commander White may be charged for discharging a firearm on federal property. Allen West reported this week that Lt. Commander Timothy White

Ladies and gents, resulting from the text message I received yesterday, I can confirm that the United States Navy is bringing charges against Lt. Cmdr Timothy White for illegally discharging a firearm on federal property.

The text message asked if it would be possible for Lt.Cmdr White to reach out to me. To wit I replied, affirmative.

What kind of freaking idiots are in charge of our Armed Forces — pardon me, our “unArmed Forces”? What would they prefer that Abdulazeez had been able to kill all the Marines and Sailors at the Naval Support Reserve Center? Let me draw an interesting contrast: Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus is more concerned about lifting the ban on transgendered Sailors. Mabus has a problem in that for the first time since 2007 the US Navy will not have a Carrier Battle Group operating in the Persian Gulf. But this knucklehead has no problem with the Navy seeking to destroy the career of a Sailor, a commander of an installation, returning fire against an Islamic jihadist attack. I do not care if it was his personal weapon, he deserves a medal for facing the enemy.

If they try him find him guilty and fine him $1, I'm OK with that.

The $1 would be money well spent, under double jeopardy, he could never be brought up on this again.

A sane military would identify the people in the chain of command involved in charging White, and expel them immediately. Dishonorable discharges issued by this afternoon.

Not in His name, in allah's name.

Impossible to write satire anymore. It's always outstripped by reality.

All I can say is, I hope this guy gets an ace lawyer and fights this through every kind of appeal possible. This must not stand.

It's called prosecutorial discretion. Just ask the Commander in Chief.

They’re making a spectacular tactical error if they want more gun control.

Perfect issue for one of the GOP. Will any of the candidates for President speak out?

Is any country that would elect Obama twice worth giving your life for?

Why are we surprised .. Obama has rid this country of it’s strongest military leaders .. asking them if they will fire on the citizens of America .. if not - YOU’RE GONE.

Just remember that when you see who is leading our military now.

Sounds like the posthumous courageous restraint medal is an idea that hasn't gone away yet.

I agree.

This man deserve a medal, not a trial.

It is mind boggling to behold just how far away from good our country is moving.

This better not be true. Any officer involved in this MUST be imprisoned. No way.

The Rules of Engagement of our military might as well be written by our enemies; but, then again, we have enemies, foreign and domestic.
