The base has confirmed to WTOP that the incident is NOT a drill.
Got to get it in before Ramadan ends!
I detest the phrase ‘shelter in place’. Yes, it suggests that Big Brother will take care of you. Our proud Military is being infantilized by this Admin, just like the citizenry. I weep for the USA.
Call me jaded, but isn’t it convenient this totally wipes the story about a certain meeting between a certain ex-president and a certain AG off the news?
“The base has confirmed to WTOP that the incident is NOT a drill.”
Just keepin it real, yo
Do Crisis Actors get bonus pay if shot at with real bullets?
What’s happening today that needs a diversion? Anything?

There were reports of an active shooter incident on base at Malcolm Grow medical facility at approximately 9 a.m. today, June 30, 2016.
Personnel on base have been directed to shelter in place.
The base was scheduled to conduct an active shooter exercise, however, reports of a real-world active shooter situation were reported at Malcolm Grow medical facility.
First responders are currently on scene to secure the location.
Due to the serious nature of this report, the base is reacting to ensure the safety of all personnel.
More information will be released as it becomes available.
Huma’s testimony yesterday was not helpful to Hildabeast. Maybe keep that out of the news?
You’ve won today’s internet.
Needs to be repeated. BTTT.

Look folks...as long as POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Clinton remain in office, innocent Americans and people all over the world will die and be seriously injured, on an ongoing, regular basis, because neither POTUS, Obama, Murderer, Clinton, Retard, Warren, Deadbeat, Biden, the entire disgusting, Democrat Party gives one hoot about the safety of the American people, their families & our military folks. Actually ...i love it....you idiot fool Americans got eaxactly what you deserve....”Traitors” to your country and families. God’s shame on all of you low life, for voting this cancerous vermin Democrat despots in!!! Impeach Barack Hussein Obama....right now!!! LMAO!!!
GO DONALD TRUMP....ONWARD TO VICTORY!!!
It sounds to me like somebody didn’t get the memo that this was only supposed to be a drill. Usually, somebody would know if there is “an active shooter” and where he/she/it/wiz/zim/zer/zot was “active” at. You’d be able to hear the gunfire.
“...More information will be released when we determine whether this workplace violence incident was about guns, gays, racism, or Islamophobia....”
This reminds me of the nuclear launch drills for both the missile folks and SAC folks during the cold war.
“Scramble, Scramble..THIS IS NOT A DRILL, I repeat, THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Launch ALL BIRDS!”
Need more signs.
CNN saying its “ an accidental discharge” so they knew from the beginning what had occurred so LE in the area was told to stand down ; they could handle it.
Maybe it’s an “active shooter” drill for the MSM so they can get this right. That fiasco in Orlando was screwed up badly, with the guy talking about “some random guy” holding a door shut, etc.
Also, maybe people will be so jaded by convention time that no one will bat an eye anymore, which would serve purposes of what they may be trying to achieve.
Or not. Maybe someone just can’t operate their firearm and screwed up. Lol.
The reporting says, “they are INVESTIGATING a report of an active shooter.”
