Well, of course!
We all remember what happened on that other (unarmed) army base a few years back………….

It’s beyond ridiculous to me that a soldier wouldn’t be permitted to carry a sidearm at ANY time, let alone on base. It’s just ludicrous.

I suppose. Do your 2nd Amendment rights go away because you’re confused about your sexuality?

What a novel idea! The Armed Forces ....well, <ARMED.... this Cruz guy really comes up with some wild radical stuff. Next thing you know, he'll propose controlling the Mexican Border. He nuts, I tell you, nuts!

Our troops should be issued sidearms and required to carry them, even stateside in commie states that don’t approve of that sort of thing.

I’m 100% for it.
A well armed society is a polite society.
It was President Carter, I believe, that would not let troops on base be armed anymore?
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Well, the second amendment applies to soldiers the same as it does to the rest of the populace.
Shall not be infringed...

Dems would sooner arm ISIS than let this happen.
