Some of us believe it’s better NOT to broadcast our flaws and weaknesses to potential enemies.
What purpose do you think it serves to tell the world that the ‘armed guards’ aren’t really armed?
Seems like that could go unannounced, and resolved quietly.
If it’s not made known, it can’t be changed.
Think about it.
If your son were in a security job, and told to shoot anyone who crossed the line, but not given ammo, what would you do? How would you feel? Especially if he were killed in the line of duty?
Why be quiet about the security of this country? If terrorists know we are ARMED they will be less likely to shoot us. If you have a better idea, I suggest you research Ronald Reagan’s stance on Peace. And Socialism.
In the meantime, you’d better pray that Obama doesn’t go belly up when Push comes to Shove.
