Base is locked down

My condolences to the families of the dead and injured but I think we should all write our representatives and demand that weapons should not be allowed on military bases. Make them all gun free zones. Makes sense doesn't it? About as much sense as it does in the civilian world.
That's what concerns me. Sounds like it's the same type of attack that Muslim homegrown terrorists wanted to carry out at Fort Dix, NJ in 2007.PeepSight said:I heard another report that said there were three assailants with two on the loose. It also said the shootings occurred at different locations within the fort. Almost sounds like an organized operation. More than one person doing this rules out a single unstable person. Not good.
That's what I think. They are sending us a message that if they can shoot up our army bases that nobody is safe anywhere ... little do they know that we Americans are not pushovers. They will never defeat the American people.2edgesword said:Maybe these guys are taking up where the Ft. Dix, NJ terrorist left off.
Be careful. You don't want to offend the Muslims by saying their community is more apt than others to produce radical terrorists.LIRES1987 said:That's what concerns me. Sounds like it's the same type of attack that Muslim homegrown terrorists wanted to carry out at Fort Dix, NJ in 2007.
