TGRP Episode 344: Case of “The Mondays”




The Gun Runner Podcast (TGRP) show

Summary: In the coming weeks there will not be a focus on gun control due to the recent shooting, even Sarah had no idea that there had been a shooting until the morning news the day after. The reason is that the body count is too low and a Soldier precluded the deadly actions if the shooter. This does not fit with the narrative. Children are suppose to be helpless in the face of the gun. It is the destroyer of lives that prowls our schools looking for victims. The notion that engagement is a solution is not acceptable. My Senior Drill Instructor, then Staff Sergeant Siquirous, told us when we went north to Edson Range that he was going to "Teach us how to earn the Medal of Honor". And so he, like many DIs before him, through lessons on our Marine Corps heritage taught us the virtue of selfless sacrifice to save the team and allow the mission to continue. There of course is more to this that should really have some more harsh tone of voice.
