Today was a good day at work, I was busy and the time flew by. It was also a stressful day because Me and a buddy were still trying to get a hold of our friend that worked at the Navy Yard and we have been unsuccessful in reaching him. Today they released the full list of people killed and he was not on the list. He still could be on of the 8 wounded and not named or he could have lost his phone. Who knows, we sure don’t yet.
There are many folks looking to put more restrictions of guns and passing more laws to prevent crimes like this. Truth is, it was already against the law to have a gun in Washington,DC. It was against federal law to bring the firearms onto the military facility. It was against the law to discharge the weapons in buildings, and it is against the law to murder people. Another law passed would just be another law broken. What needs to be fixed is the mental health issue and treatment, and criminals committing crimes with firearms not being punished under the LAWS we already have. He should not have been eligible to work there, his clearance should have been pulled with the gun charges that were not brought to court, and he should have been under better mental health care. This guy was a problem and destined to go off at some point. These are the things we need to work on to make us safer, not just passing news laws that will not stop a madman.
So far in my lifetime I have worked for 2 companies that could have had me working at the Pentagon on 9/11 and I worked at Walter Reed Army Medical center where the wacko Major Hassan had worked and could have gone on a rampage at. You don’t know when bad things are going to happen. Be like a boyscout and have a plan, and practice safety every day, everywhere you go. Pay attention to your surroundings and if something does not look right or feel right, alter you behavior accordingly. Be safe and be happy.
