IMO this is similar why a lot of 30.06 signs get posted. The many of those who post signs realize that the signs won't stop a criminal from bringing a gun on their property, but they don't care, because they fear a licensee accidentally/negligently shooting someone or something more than they fear that someone is going to purposely commit a crime on their property.Pawpaw wrote:USAF Base Commanders have always had the ability to do it. Unfortunately, they also know that if they allow it and there is one incident where someone is killed, that base commander's career is finished.ELB wrote:Like this, this is rich:So if you have to tell them they can do what they were already empowered to do, then maybe they weren't really empowered to do it?"None of these programs gives the installation commander authorizations they didn't already have the authorization to do," Maj. Keith Quick, the Air Force Security Forces Integrated Defense action officer, said in a statement according to Military.com. "We are now formalizing it and telling them how they can use these types of programs more effectively."
The USAF "leadership" is neither mission driven or people driven. They are, with only rare exceptions, career driven. They're willing to crap all over the people in their unit, if it will make them look good to the higher-ups.
