The real lesson learned from Monday’s US Navy Yard tragedy is that we have turned our military installations into gun-free zones, a free-fire area for an attacker. As in Ft. Hood, once an assailant breaches the perimeter security checkpoint they are in a target-rich environment of unarmed and defenseless uniformed service members and civilians. A Clinton-era Executive Order made this possible, so now what should be the safest place is in fact a kill zone. Let us not forget that 30 years ago 238 Marines lost their lives in Beirut because the ROE did not allow them to have weapons loaded, even at the security checkpoint. The response times at Ft. Hood and the Navy Yard were 10 and 7 minutes respectively…and in both cases the assailants were shot by civilian law enforcement, not military. Our enemies are watching.
Sir, do you have any idea why Mr. Clinton issued that order? I don’t remember. Was there a rash of gun violence on our military bases?

Time to allow concealed carry again, and weapons in vehicles etc on military bases.

Yes, our enemies are watching us and our lame or non-responsiveness. But, we must know our enemies are doing this from Capitol Hill starting with our POTUS and all the Muslim/Islamist he has appointed and hired as his advisors. They laugh and smirk at us and our ignorance while in their protected positions. America has its eyes and minds wide shut to this and without discussion by any that are and did represent We The People. The U.S. constitution is no longer viewed by our political leaders as our unbending guidance. Shame on us as a people and history will state it as so..

I was faulted for blame placing/finger pointing by a fellow conservative (helpful, right?) when I re-posted this. Apparently, The Blaze is reporting that George HW Bush actually issued this order. Can you provide any clarity on this? Thanks for all you do for this great country!
