can anyone tell me if this military installation was a gun free zone?
I was listening to talk radio out of Boston a short while ago, and a caller said, “When I was in the Marine Corps, my military base was a big gun free zone. The guard at the entrance was armed, and the MPs were armed. No one else was armed. If I had even a round of ammo in my car, I would have gotten into trouble.”
“can anyone tell me if this military installation was a gun free zone?”
After Fort Hood, there was a central directive from the highest levels to make all military installations gun free zones (except for Military police and security guards, just like in DC).
There had been some regulations to that effect before then, they were not enforced, and the policies on each base were left up to the local commander.
