On July 20, a policy letter from the U.S. Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) instructed recruiters to avoid contact and/or conversation with armed “law-abiding” civilians who volunteer to guard recruitment centers and to report said volunteers to law enforcement “if the recruiter feels threatened.” Stars and Stripes responded to the letter with a July 22 headline that read, “Army To Recruiters: Treat Armed Citizens As Security Threat.”

yeah recruters they are your enemy, not the ones who will not allow you to protect yourself.
Yea right. They can try that within the right of way in front of any establishment. Most don’t know that their property does not extend to the curb, and also, they are only leasing that space.
And surrender to the enemy.
The new Army.
“if the recruiter feels threatened.”...........
The thing that made it impossible to watch Batman, Sherlock Holms and Mrs. Marple was the idea that a government agency at any level would accept help from a civilian. (Other that a politically connected contractor.) Needing help from, or the appearance of needing help from a civilian does away with the need for, and the utility of, said agency. The agency head, who must fight for budget every year, is insulted by civilians helping. The implication is that the head of this agency is incompetent in the extreme. So, why do you even need that agency? Why not replace it with civilians? I assure you that members of the government see a civilian guarding the military as an indictment of failed gun policies and that can not be allowed. It matters not how many soldiers are killed.
“Oooh, is that a big, scary gun you’re carrying?”
Biggirl, thanks for posting this one!

Ping to article, especially posts #3 and #6.
Is it wrong to now say I’m glad that I was PDQ’ed out of the military when I tried to join?
Well since one of the guards in Ohio was careless enough to let he AR-15 discharge while he was showing it off to a bystander then maybe the recruiters would be safer handling their own security?

So the “enemy” really is us?
Gov’t trying to turn the military against regular citizens...
Vs, my 9-year-old granddaughter who, after noting my gun on my hip when i took her fishing, "Pop-Pop, are you a cop? No, sweetheart, I'm your protector. Cool!"
What’s to prevent people from posting signs saying simply “WE ARE ARMED” all over one’s store ... even if you’re not ?
I won't recruit, I'll pass out free copies of The Constitution of The United States of America
In the Philippines, in what they call SM (super mart .. a chain), the rent-a-cops have spiffy uniforms and shiney but empty holsters
Why not empty holsters in a Militia Recruiting Center ?
The government hates competition.
This is exactly the mindset.
Pathetic.
These are not the kind of military leaders who won WWII.
