    Heck, let em open carry. I fully support either though.

    This should not even be a question on a military installation.

    I've said it once, I've said it 1,000 times: They trust us with loaded "assault rifles" downrange, carried in a loaded posture, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week... why not back home?

    Unless things have changed in the last 20 years, it's the only way to keep DA civilians alive, given the way they treat soldiers. I guess we'd have to add contractors that list, too.

    I see no problem. They defend their country, they have the most training etc etc. why shouldn't they be given a lifetime CCW anywhere in the country, not just on military installations.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    While I can see the arguments for letting soldiers carry on base, I also remember some instances that lead to commanders pointing to why soldiers in the barracks could have no weapons at all. Like in Hawaii some infantry guy had a pistol in his room and one drunken night kills the pizza delivery guy for some reason. Or an argument over some barracks skank gets one guy gut stabbed with a k-bar. The problems of these daytime shootings might be solved, but the night time accidents after pounding a 12 pack might be worse. There would have to be major changes in mentalities for this to work, and I don't see the power drinking and testosterone fueled idiocy common in on base parties stopping anytime soon.
