Too Little . . . Too Late: Our Nations Colors at Half-Mast

Finally after extreme pressure the Administration relents and lowers our Nations Colors at half-mast . . . My question is:  Why did it take 5 days to do it.  ALL flags should have been lowered that afternoon on the 16th.  This adminstration is a disgrace and a down right repugnant to OUR way of life.  

In the times we are living in today . . . There is NO excuse why our Marines have to call a cop to defend themselves.  We don't need every member in the military carrying loaded weapons at all times, that would be impractable, but we do need a certain degree of them at the ready at ALL times.  Hell, even the damn Boy Scouts are more prepared nowadays than our own military.  And its all due to this adminstrrations disdain for this country!
