JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. (AP) Joint Base Andrews tweets that the base is on lockdown due to a report of an active shooter.
The tweet sent Thursday morning instructs all personnel at the base in Washington's Maryland suburbs to shelter in place and says more information will be released as it comes.

wsbtv reported live at the hospital saying the feel is “no danger” and maybe someone didnt get the memo about the drill..breaking all on news channels worldwide
embarrassing...
My first thought when I read it may actually be a drill. “Treating as if...”. What news do they want to bury? Trump leading in the polls and The Phoenix Fix.
This is Bill Smith, roving reporter for WHGT, reporting live from the latest mass shooting here at Andrews AFB. Here comes someone running from the base now... Sir! Sir! Please tell us what is happening on the base.
(Running Man): A man pulled a pistol and just started shooting at people.
Sir, was he using an AR-15 military assault weapon?
(RM): No, no, it was a pistol.
But Sir, how can you be sure? Have you had weapons training? Can you be sure it wasnt an AR-15?
(RM): Yes...I mean no. I mean, no, I havent had weapons training, but yes, Im sure it wasnt an AR-15.
You sound confused, sir. Was the gun black?
(RM): Yes.
Did it have a pistol-grip handle?
(RM): Well, uh, yes.
Did you see the shooter change ammunition clips?
(RM): Uh, one time I think.
There you have it folks. An active shooter using a weapon remarkably similar to the popular AR-15 assault weapon preferred by homegrown terrorists and NRA members, using high capacity clips to murder innocent civilians.
This is Bill Smith turning it back over to the studio. Be sure to tune in later this evening, at 7pm, to watch our special Why AR-15 owners hate the government, non-white people, and kittens.
Moochelle must be back in town.
Yeah, that need an Internet meme. It would need to be clear it’s not our military’s fault. Maybe your words in front of that photo of Obama on his bike.
Huma needs to be jailed.
Now the networks are reporting false alarm.... (Twitter)
Who invents these phrases? 'Shelter in pace' almost sounds like it means something other than 'stay where you are and hide'.
Might as well just say BOHICA .
Oboy, Golf-One must be really pissed, perfect day so far, great for golf but...
Joint Base Andrews is home to the USAF 89th Airlift Wing, which has all the president’s flying taxis, fixed wing and Obama’Copters.
Golf-One scoots out to Andrews on days such as this.... but lockdown, oh my. Today is not not that day!
Huge base and with the Airlift Command one would think base security would be, well, a little more secure.
The same people who want to psychologically beat down our military by making them shelter in place rather than storm the shooter with hundreds of arms.
Agreed, it makes me nauseous each time I hear/read it.
It was a phrase that used to be limited to hurricanes and tornadoes but somehow made its way into civil defense. Hey, there’s a good word. Haven’t heard much about civil defense in a few decades. Need it now.
Obama/Clinton....”Three Ring Circus” gig at the number one air base in the country!!! God help the USA!!! Ca n you imagine that no one on the base of authority had enough snese to realize a terrorism drill was underway!!! Whay a sham and disgrace. Well.....folks that Obama and his “deadbeat” Homeland Secretary Secretary for ya!!! I wish I could laugh at these buffoons....but, crying is more realistic!!!
An hour ago General McInerney said on Fox News from what he could tell that if the base did get reports of a suspected shooter it had been taken care of. He said he could tell by people casually walking and not running. The urgency of the situation was not there. He said there was a 90% chance it was not an active shooter situation. Military experts Martha McCallum and General Bret Biar thanked him and then blew off anything he said to them, saying it was an active shooter situation. Bair basically called him a liar.
Baer must have accidentally put Shep Smith’s makeup on.
I wonder if Loretta told Bill who had to be killed or if she had to hand him a list with names on it? While it might be a long list, Bill doesn’t look like he is capable of remembering too many names.
The movie “Air Force One”....life imitating art?
Nah, this is just another Obama regime CHARLEY FOXTROT.
Having it happen at Andrews and possibly hosing 0’s golf date is purely coincidental. (Although the golf date cancellation rates a chuckle.)
