Shepard Smith stated “This is a military base. Everybody is walking around carrying a gun.” I turned the tv off at that point - more accuracy here.

Coincidence that it’s Guy Fawkes day?

[MrB]

I’ve heard that term more from black helicopter (conservative?) types more than from lefties.

[BuckeyeTexan]

Yep. I think it was 1990 or 1991.

[batter]

Yeah, like I said “usually”. If they are jihadis, they may have also decided to be taken alive to further gum up the works and drive up costs to the US as much as possible (cause as much damage as possible).

And Semper Fi back to you,sir. Knew a couple Marines in Nam. Great guys.

[mmichaels1970]

Either Muslims or Oklahoma bomber types, no doubt!

Could be Columbine types as well.

[milford421]

Yup.

[WOBBLY BOB]

exactly. maybe Lawrence Tribe or Ashley Wilkes will be their pro-bono lawyer.

At four oclock we can be thankful that Cavuto takes over.

[dragnet2]

Spokesperson at base just said more than one shooter...

[RJS1950]

Actually personal weapons can be held on most bases and besides that most bases right now only check your id and eyeball the vehicle passengers. If you are in an expected delivery or some other service vehicle they won’t normally do an extensive check but that might change depending on these circumstances.

WHEN SHEP ASKED THE REPORTERETTE ABOUT A DESCRIPTION WHAT WAS THE WORD SHE USED? I COULD NOT MAKE OUT WHAT SHE SAID. DID ANYONE HEAR IT?

I was a woman on CNN, Barbara, I forgot her last name...Barbara Starr. I'm not watching, so I can't comment. However, while I was at the Pentagon, she was the only newsie you would ever see roaming the halls and mingling with the GIs.

[Marty62]

Ok sooo DS Shep thinks 3 PTS guys got to gather to shoot up the base. WHAT AN IGNORANT ASS.

[toldyou]

Thanks to you and your dad for your service. Great photos on your home page!

[Interesting Times]

It is an OUTRAGE that the media is so quick to place the blame on the (military) instead of terrorists. SOB’s...every one of them.

It offers a large hint as to which side they support.

[Carley]

So you think Shep’s conjecture that its’ stress related in a sensible comment?

[a fool in paradise]

Didn’t we have a raid on one of our bases in Iraq with men in uniform? Rampage and kidnapping?

[NautiNurse]

Easy on Steve Centanni. First, his supposition was within reason when the early reports indicated a single shooter on base. Second, Centanni knows something about post traumatic stress. He was kidnapped by armed Palestinian gunmen and held captive for a week while on assignment in Gaza in 2006.
