Act of War: Four Marines Dead

A terrorist yesterday attacked two military facilities in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and killed four United States Marines and injured another.  Citizens of The United States of America should be safe, especially in our own country.  We have the finest, bravest, best-trained, best-equipped, strongest military in the World, but our military personnel are not allowed to have live ammunition, and in some cases weapons, while they're on duty.  This is wrong.

The United States has been declared an enemy by radical Islamists and they have vowed to kill us, even in our homeland.  Our naive president may not want to admit this, but when our enemy is at war with us, we are at war with that enemy, whether we admit it or not.

It's time for the Administration and the Department of Defense to arm our military to the maximum, and give them orders to shoot to kill when they are attacked.

It is time for our government to put on it's big-boy pants and do it's job: Protect the citizens of The United States of America wherever they are.

I'm not as lean, not as mean, but I'm still a Marine. Four of my brothers are dead, another wounded.  That makes me angry.  I think that attack--and all similar attacks--was an act of war.
