A Naval air station in Texas is on lockdown and a suspect is in custody, officials said Wednesday, nearly a week after a Saudi national opened fire at a base in Pensacola, Florida, killing three and wounding eight more.

Naval Air Station Corpus Christi issued a warning Wednesday morning at around 7:30, urging members of the base to “remain in place.”

This crap is getting out of hand.

It’s time to remove Islam from the equation.

It’s time to fire the top 5 layers of Navy Brass and promote / re-install actual patriots instead of perfumed princes.

It is way past time to retire the top few layers of all branches - and accept the resignation of top 3-4 levels of SES and SIS government wide. And fire all the AAG’s.

Time to removed as many layers as possible from the FBI.

It is time to become what the left has accused us of for the last 50 years - harsh and intolerant.

It is PATHETIC that our military bases are as defenseless as schools. If I were the base commander, all military personnel would be carrying 1911s, Condition One readiness.

Today, the Naval Aviator training program at NAS Corpus Christi is much longer,
approximately 18 months, due to the increased complexity of today’s aircraft.
Currently, Training Air Wing FOUR produces approximately 400 newly qualified
aviators each year via the “Maritime Pipeline” for shore-based U.S. Navy, U.S.
Marine Corps and U.S. Coast Guard fixed-wing jet and turboprop aircraft, as well
as a limited number of NATO/Allied/Coalition military pilots for similar aircraft.

“...our military bases are as defenseless as schools...”

gun-free zones, as military bases and schools are, become easy targets for terrorists.

"We have met the enemy, and he is us!" Pogo

Think about the irony:

Our military bases are "No Gun Zones."

I’m really hoping that President Trump’s second term does something like that. If the Dems lose all branches of government, if the people choose Trump by a landslide, and if people decide that the media is hopelessly biased — then why hold back? Go scorched Earth and re-make the government bureaucracy from top-to-bottom and remove any worker who supports the Progressive Globalists. There is no downside.

“It is way past time to retire the top few layers of all branches - and accept the resignation of top 3-4 levels of SES and SIS government wide. And fire all the AAG’s.”

During GW’s term, I posted something similar and caught hell on this board.

My proposal was for every government employee say at a GS7 and above, after each presidential election had to submit a signed and undated letter of retirement to the new president.

His/her/it’s job depended on if the new president accepted
them for their 4 year term.

If they did something political or worse re the new president, they could be fired immediately due to their signed and undated resignation letter.
