Marines to implement new strategy in wake of Chattanooga, TN attack.

After the tragic murder of four Marines and a Navy corpsman three weeks ago in Chattanooga, TN, the United States government has been slow to respond to a public outcry for better defense of our military personnel.

In the wake of the shootings Armed citizens stood up to keep watch at recruitment centers. This drew the ire of the Department of Defense, which released warnings to citizens that they should leave well enough alone and stop assembling peaceably to protect the servicemen and women inside the centers.

After weeks of pressure from the public, the Navy has made it known that they will be moving to arm soldiers in the Recruitment centers, per FOX News.

Not to be outdone, the United States Marine Corps has released details of their plans for protecting recruiters. Training is now under way for all Marine recruiters and eventually for the rest of the corps that will enable any marine to catch incoming bullets in his or her teeth and spit them back at the attacker. The technique, similar to the ancient martial arts technique of catching an arrow with one hand, should allow Marines to adequately defend themselves in the event of an attack.

When asked the President's opinion, White House staff declined to give Mr. Obama's position stating that he will formulate a response after he hears about it on the news this evening.

Please note, the above is satire. Additionally, I have the utmost respect for our men and women in uniform and mourn with them the loss of their brothers. Our government, on the other hand, has droppped the ball in protecting those who so selflessly protect us.
