Two Navy instructor pilots told Fox News the December 6, 2019, Pensacola attacker had 10 minutes without armed resistance in which to carry out his horrific work.
Fox News reports those pilots are among a group of instructors who are asking military brass to allow them to carry guns for self-defense.
One instructor pilot said, “It’s so stupid that on a military base, the shooter was allowed to roam free for so long. In a gun fight, that’s an eternity.”
Breitbart News reported that decision to allow military personnel to be armed for self-defense falls to the installation commanders, per Amendment S. 1536, which was part of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2016. That amendment shifted power to authorize defensive carry from the Secretary of Defense to the various installation commanders.
On December 6–the day of the Pensacola attack–Breitbart News reported Naval Air Station Pensacola is a gun-free zone.

Why not just ALL of us? And, send these Saudis home; their culture doesn't mix with ours and they act out because they don't know how to assimilate. An armed society is a polite society.
ReplyDeleteSad that our military personnel are not armed to handle these thugs.
