"The next Army chief of staff suggested Tuesday that soldiers at recruiting stations should be armed. How typical in the United States to respond to the latest gun tragedy with a call for more guns."
"General Mark Milley's statement at his nomination hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee came in response to questions about the deaths of four Marines and a sailor earlier this month ... General Milley told senators he believed that 'In some cases, I think, it's appropriate" for soldiers stationed at the facility to carry weapons.'"

"The Pentagon is understandably reluctant to arm soldiers at recruitment stations because it wants to encourage people to come in"
Are you kidding me? All the liberals want guns restricted to police and military. We are only asking that they get their wish.

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
