Donald Trump says that if elected president, he will abolish the gun free zones currently imposed on U.S. troops by [mandating] that soldiers remain armed and on alert at our military bases.
In an interview with Ammoland he said: President Clinton never should have passed a ban on soldiers being able to protect themselves on bases. Americas Armed Forces will be armed.
Trump went on to decry gun free zones on military bases as a product of political correctness and said removing those zones will
[enable soldiers] to defend themselves against terrorists.

Kerry and Rangel as well .
Trump is exposing a lot of BS including the need for political consultants. Speak the truth and have common sense.
Trump is throwing out some red meat and I’m loving it. I hope he stays the course for the nomination. You better believe that inside the Beltway Democrat and Republican assassins are looking for ways to bring him down.
Keep an eye on Tokyo Rove. He will be maneuvering behind the scenes. The cheap labor party honchos will not be denied!
With the way the world is today we could be snaked by literally thousands of sleeper cells that strolled across the border over the years. I think military bases that lock weapons away from most of the military personnel are as dumb as carrying around a pistol with no ammo on you. All it is then is a conversation piece...
Trump is a HUGE IDIOT - thinking that soldiers can be trusted with firearms. What a JERK.
(how anti-Trump people see it)
Several months ago, my Guard unit put out (official TX policy) that CHL holders and LE were allowed to carry on any TXARNG facilities. Since we share our complex with Reserve units, we’re considered a Federal installation so those rules don’t apply.
However, several of us still do anyway, and a bunch more at least have something tucked away in the truck.
No, its just their liberal college education.
Exactly
The Donald is firing on all 8. I spent 24 years in USAF uniform and never carried a government-issued weapon except for qualification. Would still have loved to have the ability to carry personal weapons instead of being told to hide and cower and throw a stapler if cornered....
He has so much he has done, but so much still yet to do. Four more years! And he needs a conservative Congress to work with.

BREAKING: The Pentagon and State Department ignored security warnings and even turned down recommendations made more than two years ago by DODs inspector general to tighten the security process for screening flight-school enrollees from Saudi and other high-risk Islamic states
hat tip to FReeper @bitt
The Left doesn't want veterans armed either.
Obama tried to declare them all "crazy" by the VA so he could steal their guns.
It's just "workplace violence?"
After 9-11 security of all basis should have been stepped up
Didn’t have it in the 80’s.
