Some pretty tough gun laws here in the People’s Republic of MD. Happed anyway.

Interesting, they are reporting that Jeh Johnson was in a meeting and stated there was “an ongoing situation and he might have to leave”. Paraphrased

What?

Reassuring.

Good luck trying to make sense of this

Apparently someone on base saw personnel with “long guns” and in panic, reported it...the guns were part of drill.

Right now, dozens of Democrats are pissed off that nobody died and they don’t have more victims to exploit.

OK, so seeing someone with a firearm on a military base is enough to cause a panic? What would they do if they had to visit Camp Pendleton? Or drive through Pennsylvania during hunting season?

It makes you wonder...

Carrying a personal gun on base against orders is a great way to find yourself in Leavenworth.

I hated not being armed when living on base, but the consequences of being caught carrying an authorized weapon were unthinkable.

Well, after all, MILITARY bases are GUN-FREE zones...so maybe a snowflake was alarmed? I dunno.

It’s all too much.

Joint Base Andrews was locked down just after 9 a.m. after someone mistook an active shooter drill for the real thing, senior law enforcement officials told NBC News. All personnel were directed to shelter in place.

Officials said first responders received reports of an "real-world active shooter situation" around the same time the base was conducting an active shooter exercise.

Ultimately determined there was no active shooter. Somebody saw some security personnel and mistook them for gunmen.

Maryland “Freak State” PING!
