The whole disarmament thing on .mil bases cracks me up, in a very depressing way.
Seems that a pair of loser bank robbers could completely take over an army base. A typical urban Police station has more readily deployable firepower, at what appears to be about 2-3 orders of magnitude. Bumbleskank, Arkansas city hall has about twice the firepower.
Those 19 AQ pilots who hijacked planes could have instead taken over about 4-5 bases in the continental US, instead.
Of course I am not, and never was .mil, but it's clear even to me that the culture is such that for the XO, even one ND/AD by anyone under their command will mess up his or her career, while an active shooter tragedy will arguably be a "
leadership opportunity" with all sorts of meetings, additional budget, promotion even.
It won't change until Generals/Admirals are made
responsible for preventing, repelling, or minimizing these attacks, rather than being lumped in with the "victims".
And bushmaster/BCM/DPMS/RRA/American Spirit/C-products/Del-ton/Armalite/et alia.
Class action suit with $5000 damages per manufacturer would ruin this paper. There must be a hundred companies or more that make AR's and AR products.
I for one would throw $25 into the kitty for such a legal fund to support such a lawsuit. They could go under the NSSF collectively. It would probably get tossed, libel/slander being a rather high standard of evidence to prove, and rightfully so, but such a shot across the bow might cool the ardor of the accomplice MSM to run with anti-gun hit pieces so willy-nilly.
