The tweet sent Thursday morning instructs all personnel at the base in Washington's Maryland suburbs to shelter in place and says more information will be released as it comes. You know this nation is doomed when the instructions given to military personnel on a military base in an event like this are the exact same instructions that are given to a day care facility or kindergarten class.

Apparently there was coincidentally an active shooter drill planned for today. A real shooter may be there, however. Confusion reigns

They may as well say “cower in place” since they have disarmed our military bases!

Same instructions to: military personnel on a military base VS. a day care facility or kindergarten class.

The ‘active shooter’ is at the Malcolm Grow Medical Facility (hospital) on Andrews. There is also confusion as to whether or not this is a real active shooter or part of a pre-planned ‘active shooter’ exercise scheduled for this morning. The base has announced that they are treating it as a REAL active shooter and security forces are at the hospital.
The base is on lockdown right now — 10:01 EDT

Cbs at 1000. “There is still no idea of what is really going on.”
Must be DHS in charge.

They have to bring in armed forces to save the military - Obama’s military.

Would totally suck if it was an exercise and the token "active shooter" was actually shot and killed because of poor communication or someone "didn't get the memo".

Once again, an active shooter event that just happens to be right down the street from a planned active shooter training event.
