First --I want to offer my Prayers to the families that were directly effected here yesterday.
I was just informed that the shooter was actually in my store looking at a Lexus---he is in my data base from 9 days ago.
When is this MADNESS going to be addressed by our leaders for what it is. To live in Chattanooga and my business is about 1/2 mile from where the first shooting started---well, I cannot believe this has come to my home town.
Chattanooga is a small town, rural and full of good people. This sort of activity is what you would fear in the more metropolitan areas-not in a small town !!
Guys this is here and our govt is fully aware but refuses to admit and acknowledge the problem and call it what it is....a THREAT TO OUR SOVERNITY AND NATIONAL SECURITY. I try to stay away from politics for the most part, but do have my beliefs, but blame BOTH parties for the problems we face in what should be called the erosion of morality, faith, family and values this country was founded on.
Within mere minutes of the start of this event-the Federal govt had all hospitals, all govt buildings, roads, a no fly zone in the entire city,...a complete lockdown. I am not a conspirisists guys, but there was knowledge of what was happening-the Feds just don't jump that fast. I made a couple of phone calls to officials as soon as it started to see what I needed to do to protect customers here, and they said we wouldn't believe what was happening-
Maybe this event will open the eyes of the public and we will force the darn elected officials to take the PROPER action to protect the citizens as that is a given right just like our second amendment right.
This THREAT has to be acknowledged for what it is and called out, the administration may not want to be at war if Radical Religious fanatics, but these fanatics are at war with us.
Open your eyes please current administration and face this for what it is .
Just wait until the political Bozo's twist this event to their political agenda on gun control---it will happen.
A great place for the administration to start --is to allow the heroes that we allow to carry arms over seas, to carry a gun on federal prop here sense we know they are targeted by these fanatics........
