Frankly, this blood is on the president�s hands. He didn�t create the policy of disarming our military personnel when it�s obvious there are enemy agents in our country who have them in their sights, but he�s surely had lots of opportunities to revisit and remedy it � and he chose not to. To leave our military people, who by definition we trust with a weapon, without the ability to protect themselves is unconscionable. Heads ought to roll for this, and Obama ought to be made to offer a personal apology to our troops for his despicable inaction. |

Don't we have at least three cabinet-level agencies with the brief of finding, tracing and securing these sorts of individuals ? These agencies enjoy the intrusive capabilities of the Patriot Act, vast computer networks and access to mountains of metadata on almost every individual in america, tracking their movements, finances, social and political activities. Yet a radicalized arab individual that failed at least one background check, traveled extensively to a hostile region, managed to obtain a variety of firearms and not one of these billion-buck budget agencies managed to cry 'foul' ? Too busy watching america vets I suppose.

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. � Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
