In light of threats from ISIS, the security level at U.S. military bases has been raised the highest level since the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

...

Meanwhile, the FBI is admitting there are potentially "thousands" of ISIS sympathizers living in the U.S. and possibly willing to carry out attacks.

If Pamela Geller is guilty of provoking muzzies and inciting hatred because she also had beefed up security then where does this leave the Pentagon?

Oh, attacks will come.

The American public saw what happens to terrorists when they come to a gathering of Americans where some are armed.

Arm yourselves.

Are they allowing the gate guards to have a Barney Fife bullet?

Just went to Buckley AFB w/my mum. I don’t know weapons and what they are called, but guard had big black one over his front. 100% ID check in place. I enjoy seeing our military armed like that. :) Wish we were more like Israel in that respect.

According to NBC “News”, the Army of Hasan
says the threats are DOMESTIC terrorism,
and “ISIS spawned”.

The problem is ISIS and that it is INVITED in
rather than being exterminated.

Here's a no brainer, close the borders to stop them from coming in and start arresting those who are already here. Gee, it's almost like this regime is allowing muslum terrorists to come in just to start killing us. (sarc)

Here’s an idea:

Let the military carry guns on base.

Duh.

I know of a base where those guns are all empty. They have to make a requisition for bullets, which are not generally available or issued.

That might take awhile.

During a terrorist attack.

I call BS on this one.. Military bases are gun free zones, unless you are an MP. Soldiers can’t even have guns without registration. Concealed carry holder.. don’t even try it, you have to lock our gun up at the base. Someone on the base has a list of every registered or secured firearm on the premises.
Beefing up security? Issue and train soldiers to use personal weapons, their families too. It is a shame we have put them in harms way, then expect them to lay their lives on the line when we need them.

I hope to goodness that’s not the case, but in this bassackwards America under the demon and his minions, I guess I wouldn’t be shocked.

No need to worry, it's not the Islamo-Nazis fault because of the crusades!

Yeah. Military bases. No shopping malls, ball games. Or any of that pesky civilian stuff like schools. Uh huh.

Jade Helm 15 needs to be redirected to focus on Mosques in America.

I think they have the threat levels mixed up. There are not five levels in the military. Media, keep up please.
