Start holding people accountable and punish them swiftly when the evidence is stacked against them. And we are are rubber necking the scene on every piece of crap news station.
I've lived in Waco my whole life and was a contractor at Hood for years. Civilian concealed carry is worthless on base. The team I worked with took every step to avoid committing a Federal Crime. After the Luby's massacre you would have thought we would have addressed the concealed carry but hell no more laws have been created and they don't seem to have slowed down the bad guys.

What is odd about this is that it as far as the Army is concerned (can't speak for the other services), it is up to each base commander to allow or disallow state concealed carry holders on the installation. It isn't federal law that bans them, it is the base commander's discretion. Most, if asked will state that it is a liability thing (think OER and bad press), bad press if anything does happen involving a licensed carrier...
