It's hazardous to your health. Good job for the SFs.

I was born at that base!

WTF? that's just stupid

 

[Fenixgoon]

on the bases i've worked at, the MP's and/or guards at the gates regularly carried rifles

What a bunch of idiots...you're not going to get very far ramming a base with a car. Sounds like the driver was on a suicide mission.

Suicide by charging a mil base is actually pretty common.

At an air base I was at in 06, happened twice in 2 weeks. One guy actually made it past the gate and got chased around for 20 minutes until the MP's decided to stop messing around, rammed him off the road, then shot him.

loool stupid thieves. They probably figured "no, they wont actually shoot, there's no way!"

Oh yes they will! lol

It's sad that it had to come to that, but I have nothing against them shooting. You can't take any chances in such situation.

Sounds like a perfectly sane idea

na, Selfridge ANGB, I want to say May or June '06 They have since upgraded the front gate, it's got those automatic pillars that pop up out of the ground and can stop a speeding semi.

smart guys

The first comment on that page makes me sick.

This is why you need retractable pillars/tank traps

McChord/Lewis has what looks like either a pop-up wall or a giant trench that opens up maybe 50-60 yards past the gates.

Seriously, I would expect the sentries to have LAWS rockets to be able to stop a vehicle in its tracks.
