Meh, it certainly seems a bit insensitive when you don't know the details of the situation at that moment.

I'll never understand why the first page of these threads always has some a-hole who has to post the most edgy, anonymous quip he can imagine.

I'm sure it's no mass shooting or terror attack like the media wants it to be

I HIGHLY DOUBT that you've been on a base with a real world active shooter (several times)... It's not like these things happen often.

AP is reporting murder/suicide. Probably a domestic situation. Around 2001 when we got back from deployment a guy on my first boat found out his wife had been cheating on him. He put the kids in a closet, shot her, then shot himself. This sort of shite happens in base housing more than most people realize.

Brother, I was an infantry officer in the Army. We got locked down when I was at OCS at Benning because of a domestic issue that turned into an active shooter situation. It happened again when I was at Lewis.

There are some crazy arse people in the world, even in the service. An LTC tried to hire a hit man to off his wife while I was at Lewis, among many other things.

Yes, it does.

Stress of two wars took its toll on the force, at least when I was in (though, obviously, that's not what happened here).

Exactly. We'll get another round of calls for gun control, anyway.

Abuse is much more prevalent in military families than more traditional families/upbringings. It is a complex problem with many contributing factors, but it is a problem.

this shite has always happened, you just know now the moment it happens because of mainstream media. Before it would have had to been printed in a paper and read by you or someone you know and told to you. Days later.


Face it, Some people are fricking crazy. Thats life.

I read that it was at the Medina Annex. Not where the BMT trainees are housed.

The Medina Annex is where we did all of our BMT weapons training though. I believe that is where the armory is as well. Dang, it's a crazy world out there.

This could have all been avoided if only you had shared a prediction that something bad was going to happen today.

I'm sick of the term "active shooter" as well. Is there such a thing as a "non-active shooter"?

Do you honestly think anyone is dumb enough to believe such a ridiculous statement?


Several times? I mean, really?
