Notice the underlined section from their own Facebook post:
And compare to what was published in Fox News:
Unless they go with the “An NRA hacker changed what we wrote in Facebook” or “The Evil FoxNews sanitized Ladd’s comments to make him look good” you do get a feeling for what the value they give to our men and women in the service. We all know all the humorous “crap” that the Air Force is given by the other services, but not even the cushiest of the Airmen “totes” a weapon anywhere. Toting is what you do with the sun screen, towel, book and water bottle in a bag when you go to the beach. To imply that our Military would carry weapons for self-defense in that manner is disrespectful which end up as a positive on our side.
And the “degenerate gun culture” bit does not help either since many in the military are indeed part of that Gun Culture. But they know that and hate the Military as much as they hate us. That is why they wish to keep them disarmed and get to claim them as victims if another base shooting occurs. Military shooting back and killing terrorists? Not so good for business.
Never interrupt the enemy when they are making a mistake.
I think to disarm any sane law abiding person is a pure evil thing to do,it is like saying innocent lives are worthless and the lawless should rule.I find it to be a form of dictatorship.
Why don’t they run down to South Side of Chicago an UN-ARM some of the brotha’s there. SHUT UP about TRAINED SOLDIERS! ENGLELWOOD,AUSTN, Chicago Lawn, EAST Chicago, Harvey,IND. HEY COWARDS!!!
Pretty much, yeah commanders can let you be armed.
I don’t think we ever didn’t have at least 1 person armed, and I remember one day walking up and down the halls of a building with a AT-4 for a chunk of the day. Some Staff Sergeant asked me why I had it and I told him I was on guardian angel duty with a rocket launcher. Really I had it because we were doing some review classes on it…but the look on his face was still priceless.
