29. ShepKat, this marine is disingenuous

He asks why the Marines on base cant keel there private weapons even though they test once a year?

He knows the answer. His base is circled by tall fence with barbed wire (twice), patroled constantly by armed teams of marines with fully automatic rifles, and gates screen people coming and going sometimes with armed persons and sometimes K-9s.

In other words the marine corps is taking responsibility for everyone’s safety.

We cant even trust the police to enter a school to stop an active shooter.
