To me, feeling "at home" means feeling safe and therefore having a weapon accessible when or if needed.
Let's hope that after this latest episode, the no guns allowed on base thing changes. There is no reason whatsoever that military personnel should not be allowed to conceal carry or even open carry on base.
We know what these Muslim pigs want to do to us. We knew last December when the Fort Dix plot was foiled. What the hell is the army thinking by NOT allowing military personnel to carry weapons for safety?
The safe feeling was obviously an illusion , if any had it these days . I would not want to be the one justifying the no gun policy today . It seems so obvious now especially after the Fort Dix plot was uncovered . I assumed adequate steps would have been taken in the form of extra guards and MPs . Armed off duty personnel ? I really never expected to see that . They treated us like kids . Heck I was a 19 year old Warrant Officer , they would give me a bezillion dollar Cobra , but carry a pistol on post ? I bet they didn’t even have a form for it .
