Now it’s the other way around. “Gun-toting citizens are showing up at military recruiting centers around the country, saying they plan to protect recruiters following last week’s killing of four Marines and a sailor in Chattanooga, Tennessee.” By law, military recruiters are unarmed. Seems like a stupid policy. I was not happy to read that the founder and president of Oath Keepers “issued a national call to members to guard centers.” I have a simple solution to the problem of what happened in Tennessee: Close the military recruiting offices since they are really “bomb, maim, and kill-a-foreigner-in-a-nice-uniform” recruiting offices.
