For those who were in the Navy soldiers have access to weapons only during training sessions under close supervision and base security. No one else has access to guns. this may have happened bc he was probably being harassed at his command and took it out on someone and himself

Thought it was a no gun zone?

Our condolences to the families and loved ones, another sad day for our military.

Terrorist infiltrators?

Alot of people on here speaking emotionally on issues they know the bare minimum about. Unfamiliar with gun laws, unfamiliar with firearm types and capabilities, unfamiliar with ammunition types and capabilities, etc etc. But guns bad and something is wrong with the US huh?
