Hey everyone, I found this petition to the president. Having no military experience, I'm rather shocked that weapons aren't more readily available to our military.
WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
Legalize Concealed Carry for Soldiers on Military Installations
Our hearts are saddened to learn of yet another shooting on a military installation in the United States. Yet again, service members who train regularly to responsibly handle firearms were murdered on base and were unable to defend themselves.
Concealed carry policies provide not only an appropriate means for self defense against violence, but also a proven deterrent. Our military installations have become "soft" targets for those who would harm our military members. Lawful, concealed carry by responsible service members could have prevented or lessened the severity of these incidents.
The DoD should set forth CCW regulations permitting service members in good standing who have received firearms training to carry concealed firearms on DoD installations.
