I’m former military myself and I know what you’re talking about, but that doesn’t mean I like it and I don’t think it should be that way.

This creature had an AK-47. If he had been Achmed the Awful on a Jihadi mission it could have been another massacre. Anyone who runs the gate at a military base needs to be stopped HARD.

i was station at Ft Leonard Wood (FLW) a few years ago. In face I still have a house there if anyone is looking to buy one. It is a nice house. They do have Dept of the Army Security Guards at the gates to augment the MP’s there. They are pretty well trained. The main gate is at the end of a long straight strip of the main road in St Robert/Waynesville. They OFTEN have drunks that head down that road with no idea the access control point is there. There are others that get confused when they hit the gate. Some of these yahoos run the gate. Can you imagine if the guard shot some elderly confused driver or some lost drunk? The gate has procedures if someone runs the gate. There is no major facility for over a mile. And FLW is the home of the Military Police. Things happened as designed. I understand your point on stopping the guy hard, but in the current PC climate that just ain't going to happen.
