Remember all those optics that went missing<\/a> from JBLM a couple days ago? Well it turns out it’s about $600k worth of stuff that was secured in a locked but not alarmed room. Whatever, like that doesn’t happen all the time. Somehow, though, the thieves managed to cut the locks and make off with it unbeknownst to the Company’s Supply section for as long as three weeks.<\/p>\n

Right on time, the North Korean apologist, Stalinist lunatics<\/a> at International ANSWER<\/a> have crawled across I-5 from Coffee Strong<\/a> to use this opportunity to take up the locked-down comapany’s cause via their front group “March Forward”. You might remember some illustrious members such as Michael Prysner<\/a>. According to the Seattle Times<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The lockdown has angered some of the soldiers, who are part of the brigade’s 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment. They have received support from March Forward, a group of soldiers and veterans opposed to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, who have been circulating a petition calling for an end to the lockdown.<\/p>\n

“The Fort Lewis, 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment is again being subjected to abusive treatment by its chain of command,” the petition reads.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ah, good to have some emo-Communist burnouts in your corner, isn’t it guys?<\/p>\n

Don’t get me wrong, if I was stuck on lock down in the BEQ because some criminal in cammies stole a bunch of crap from my unit I’d be pretty pissed too. All that being said I have to add that, in the big scheme of things, sitting around drinking beer and watching cable while the CID figures out who’s going to lockup isn’t exactly a humanitarian crisis.<\/p>\n


\nUpdate:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Looks like IVAW board member and Coffee Strong super senior barista Jorge Gonzalez added his two cents via ABC alliliate KOMO News:<\/a><\/p>\n

Jorge Gonzalez, a JBLM veteran who now works to help soldiers, says the restrictions are worsening morale that has already suffered from overseas deployments. <\/p>\n

“And now they’re coming back to being harassed more or on base by their chain of command that they’re all basically known or thought of as possible suspects,” he said. <\/p>\n

Gonzalez supports March Forward’s online petition drive calling for an end to the lockdown. <\/p>\n

“They’ve been locked down since Wednesday, so it’s pretty over-reactionary for just some lasers and scopes,” said Gonzalez. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You know what would be great? If the media would bother to look into the scum they find lingering around the Berkley St off ramp on Interstate 5 and actually figure who these people are are instead of just writing down whatever non-threatening line of crap they feed them after getting a microphone shoved in their face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
