The Army is allowed to have such a HUGE weapons cache in Massachusetts? Would knowledge that such weapons are stored there cause mass bed wetting?

Those weapons are going to run off and go kill people all by themselves.

Don’t worry, they were all non-weapons grade crock pots.

Obama can’t wait to declare a state of emergency and confiscate all weapons from citizens

Quick! Disarm every American citizen within a 200 mile radius! That’s the obvious solution!

What a relief! For a moment, until your excellent post, I thought they were pressure cookers - or perhaps the really, really dangerous pink gloves that Obama reserves to throw at ISIS. I can go back to sleep now thanks to your calming words. I’ll tell,,, is freerepublic great or what?

Gee, I wonder WHO did it ?

Pay attention to just HOW MUCH the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF and his IRANIAN SPY HATES CHRISTIANS !

This stinking piece of crap that's defiling our Oval Office is importing the Radical Islamists that will kill us.
When will congress get the guts to IMPEACH, CONVICT and EXECUTE that ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF ? Also, don't forget this: I'll bet the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF and his IRANIAN SPY are intending on EVERY ONE OF THEM to be used for importing a RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORIST !

UNHCR data confirms it: 75% of the so-called refugees arriving in Europe are MEN.

Now, THIS one I could believe might be one of those “false flag” operations that some here obsess about. To give the regime an excuse to hunt down owners of military grade weaponry and disarm them while the “investigation” proceeds.

“She reiterated that there is nothing to suggest that it is linked to terrorism.”

Not yet, anyway. First they gotta arm all those Muslims headed for Louisiana - and elsewhere.

I can assure you that all welfare offices, IRS and government buildings as well as mosques are perfectly safe.

The welfare state will continue unabated.

Poor security indeed.

Army Arms vaults are hard wired and linked via internet and land line to a central monitoring center as well as local and state LE departments. They are not a rack in a closet. Opening such a vault requires several protocols executed in a timely manner and the walls, floors and roofs of such vaults are reinforced concrete plus other materials, embedded with anti-intrusion sensors. Motion sensors inside, camera outside etc. This was either a well executed outside job or an inside job. Time was of the essence.

The common individual arms for USAR units are M9 pistils, M16A2 or A4 rifles, M4 carbines, plus crew served light and medium machine guns such as the M249 and M 240B. Night vision devices, optics for M16/M4s and crew served, plus all sorts of sensitive communication-security devices.

This is a big deal.

Has there been a list of the weapons taken or do they
want to prevent a panic?

From the article:

MassLive reported that six M4 rifles and 10 M11 handguns were stolen.

Which one of Obama’s minions told them the weapons were there and when/how to get them? Surely, there are videos around the base and along the streets out of there. A truckload of weapons can’t wander off on it’s own.

Don’t forget your M203s and 40mm Mk19s....got those in our BN unit armory. HE and HEDP rounds stored offsite close to range though.
