The news is just besides themselves as to how this guy got on and got the weapons on base.  :rolleyes: Quite easy really. Security postures have degraded significantly in the last couple years.

Sequester and Continuing Resolution. Fucking Moron reporters. What do you think the Navy is cutting.

The last time I went to Fort Jackson, it would have been preposterously easy to get weapons in.  By "easy" I mean "I would put them in my trunk and after I drove through the checkpoint I would take them out."

Fortunately, I was too busy enjoying the lazy river at the base waterpark to take any kind of action against society.

So far, the score is:  as many as 12 shot, 4 dead.  DC Metro officer and a base officer wounded.  Shooter is either down/wounded/cornered, depending on who's reporting.
The toll is up to 12 dead. :(

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Twitter blows ass. Nobody should use it.

I can't be bothered to wade through the wall to wall live news coverage over here of this, so what's a exec.sum. of what happened, by whom, weapons involved etc?

I thought it was a black guy and a white guy.

The creepy ass cracker was cleared. They are looking for another black guy.

No story line that can easily be summarized in a 10 second sound bite has yet emerged and so confusion reigns supreme.
