The Look-Away Doctrine Lives

Crime,Islam,Jihad,Terrorism

            

The case of Major Nidal Malik Hasan demonstrates that little has changed since the “the lachrymose (or should I say lachrymoose) Chief Charles Moose of Montgomery County” refused to consider African-American Muslims as suspects in his lackluster search for the DC snipers.

From “HONK AN APOLOGY FOR HONKY”: “They pursued the police tenaciously. They called in with tips about the murders. They even postponed scheduled executions in order to try and pierce Chief Charles Moose’s resistant mindset. ‘Check out Montgomery,’ they counseled. When a mere mention of ‘Montgomery’ failed to get Moose’s antlers moving in the right direction, well, they spent a dime on another call, this time providing explicit directions to the Alabama local. Silly snipers; not knowing that homeless Africans are a protected species, they loitered in parking lots in their Chevy Caprice, hoping to get noticed, and all but flagged down a police car. Hell, they even penned their notes in Ebonics.”

“The serial slayers went beyond the call of duty in trying to get caught; Chief Moose, on the other hand, did his best to adhere to the Look Away Doctrine, now imperiling American lives.”

[SNIP]

The same Doctrine continues to imperil American lives.

John A. Muhammad, one of the snipers, is scheduled to be executed tomorrow, Tuesday, for assassinating ten people and critically injured three others. Major Nidal—he murdered 13 Americans—will have to wait his turn.

    Both Major Nidal Hasan and his preacher, Anwar_al-Awlaki, are NATIVE-BORN
    AMERICAN Moslems – these are not “foreigners” who infiltrated in. This Anwar character is a real gem
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_al-Awlaki
    He used to preach to Nidal Hasan and some of the 9/11 hijackers not far from my home. To its credit (assuming this is not a deception), his old mosque in Northern Virginia denounced the “praise” of Nidal Hasan from their former employee Anwar_al-Awlaki:

    So, the questions are – WHY do we not investigate home grown threats from Islamic hatemongers here instead of playing Warlord Politics 10,000 miles away? WHY do we grant security clearances and promotions to Major Nidal Hasan while my co-worker has had to pee into a bottle 4 times so far this year to “prove” he is not a drug addict? WHY do we let a million people tresspass our borders while TSA goons abuse a 3 year old kid who walks through airport security with his shoes on (when they are not confiscating my yogurt)? America gets tag-teamed victimized by the Democracy-Exporting Republicans and the Political-Correctness Democrats.

    Major Nidal will probably get sponge baths and catered meals while the soldiers who were “merely” wounded will, no doubt, be required to undergo sensitivity training so they won’t think harsh thoughts about the good major. After all, as that gold braid weenie who is the Army Chief of Staff, whose name happily escapes me at the moment, says “diversity” is our number one goal.

    The Major deserves a Court Martial and a firing squad made up of the survivors.

    Nevertheless, why do our troops not trusted with the RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS in CONUS? [Acronym? Writers, stop using them.] It is pathetic that it is easier to shoot up an American Military Base than an Israeli kindergarden! Nidal Hasan should have been turned into Swiss Cheese 10 seconds after he started firing.

    Sorry – CONUS is Continental United States – military acronym for people based “at home”.

    I suspect that many Americans were shocked to learn, as I was, that military personnel are denied the very Second Amendment rights they are sworn to defend, on their own bases no less. I would be willing to bet that the public perception, at least prior to this fiasco, was that bases were teeming with heavily armed, trained personnel. Now, not only the public here, but folks the world over will know that it is all an illusion. This is an incredibly dangerous vulnerability.

    I see no logical reason for that policy, either. Did they try and justify it on image grounds, or (irnoically, it would seem) on the fear that someone might go nuts? This is maddeningly unjustifiable, and I hope that this event is a motive force for changing the policy before a more serious exploit of this policy comes along.

    Because the Army is communism in practice. You’re told exactly what to do and exactly when to do it: when to sleep, how long to sleep, when to eat, what to eat and how much, when to exercise, what sort of exercises to do, where you can go on your time off and where you can’t…and every order carries the weight of law.

    The Army barely trusts a soldier to tie his own boots, and you think it would allow him to walk around armed? I had far greater access to firearms the day I was discharged and walked off Ft. Bliss than I ever did in uniform.

  7. Van Wijk

    I’m remembering a few more things now. The unit’s weapons were kept in a locked vault in the basement of the barracks (where the single soldiers lived). Only the armorer (a designated Non-Commissioned Officer) and his assistant had the key. The weapons would be issued a few times a year for cleaning or to take to the field or the range. Live ammunition was dispensed at the range itself; it was never kept at the barracks. If a soldier pilfered some ammo from the range, he could face an Article 15 with loss of rank and/or pay or a less than honorable discharge.

    As I stated earlier, carrying a firearm on post was strictly prohibited. Every military post is federal property so state-issued concealed carry permits are invalid. A soldier lacks many of the fundamental rights that civilians enjoy, including the right to bear arms.

    Don’t be too shocked to learn that GIs are denied their Second Amendment Rights. Some commanders have gone so far as to require their troops to turn in lists of privately owned weapons even if they are kept off base. Remember, as with “diversity” homage the officers are willing to do whatever necessary to curry favor with the politicians.

    Look away,
    look away!
    Politically correct
    Ninny Land!

    Oh, I wish this was a
    a free land,
    I do, I do.
    Instead it seems
    like a stupid dream,
    this former land
    of liberty.

    Away, away,
    away with this land
    of PC!

    Away, away,
    can we get not back
    to Liberty?
    apologies and thanks to Stephen Foster
