That ship sailed years ago. In the 1970s we weren’t allowed to carry/keep our assigned weapons and ammunition with us when not on an active range or duty that required a weapon. Off duty your personal weapons were maintained in the armory. That was on a Marine Corps base.

I work in downtown Richmond. There have been a fair number of helicopters landing at VCU Health System hospital in the last hour. I don’t know if they are related to the incident at Ft. Lee or the multiple accidents on I-95 this morning. I can’t really tell from my vantage point.

it’s going to turn out to be some guy with serious emotional issues who should have been thrown into the booby hatch a long time ago.

Tonight, the MSM will tell us that Private Mohammad Al-Tazani was not affiliated with any terror groups. And I just made that name up to make a point.

So with an active shooter, the U.S. Army goes on "lockdown" just like an elementary grade school and everybody cowers in their offices under their desks?

Is Moochelle also dictating their cafeteria lunch content?

So there's an active shooter running around and they activate "active shooter" protocols which mean exactly what?

Open book, read some stuff, call some people, then go and hide under your desk.

Or in todays Gay friendly military, duck under the desk and put your head under your neighbor’s knees.

But then I thought that maybe, in an Obama military, it means, "Crawl under your desk and tuck your head between your knees."

Kinda like the idiotic "Duck and cover" we learned as kids in the 50s.

An injured woman in custody, she was “disgruntled”, okay, what else would someone be who would do such. I know this has probably already been said. So just repeating.

All morning the “media” has been referring to “the shooter” as a “he”. LOL! It was a woman. Fools.

Same era service here.Barely allowed weapons

in VN.Course I was Signal,not a combat unit

by any means.We were issued weapons going

out in the field.

Do wonder how long ago it was the military personnel

carried weapons and not kept stored in the armory.

Would not be suprised it was about ww1.
