[Never on my watch]

I think it is shameful that our soldiers are force to wait for civilian police to protect them.

Folding chairs, paperweights, and letter openers are not sufficient weapons. (I'll bet letter openers are technically prohibited)

I agree with you. What would happen if the nut case had gone into a police or sheriff's department? Why is a military base different? Those men & women have been in more fire fights than any non-military law enforcement officer. I know these are rhetorical questions, but it just stuns me that people considered professional & well trained enough to fight for us in war are not allowed to carry weapons here.
