That's twice now. They should think about giving their soldiers guns and ammo.

They don't carry on base, just the M.P.s

Last time I was on a US base... there were plenty of armed MP's and security guards on compounds... and they had more than sidearms.

That said... as of yet do we know for sure that it was not one of their own?

That was my point... having firearms available to all persons is not likely to happen but... more careful accounting of firearms and munitions and who does have access to them might be in order and ...more practicable.

Have they even ID'd the shooter yet?

Your first sentence agrees with my last post. It was a vet who was being assessed for PTSD, poor soul.

Poor soul my aching azz.Having a hard time because he spent 4 months in Afghanistan so he kills 3 innocents and wounds 16 more before he shoots himself.
Why not just kill himself first?NO,got to make as many others as possible suffer too.I hope he rots/burns in hell.
