Here's an idea... We now have more than 20 million concealed carry permits across the country... we also now have more than 300,000 unemployed military veterans... these vets are already highly trained and skilled in combat weaponry and fire arms... I would like to see the newly installed President create a Civilian Response Corp much like how JFK created the Peace Corp... members would receive additional advance training in something like first responder training but designed specifically to respond to ongoing terrorist threats in public places... members of this Corp will be concealed and mingling and dispersed among the regular population and would not be seen as anything more than just another citizen walking by... this would be a civilian extension to the local and State police agencies, but be run under a completely different command... the concealed carry permits for these responders could be a permit II ranking... also, ALL those now holding CC permits should ALWAYS carry when out of the house... Members of the Civilian Response Corp could serve as roaming security in all public places and and would be prepared to be the first responders on the scene even before the police are called and arrive... We need to get our country on a war footing and war mentality, and we need to think along these lines right now... as they say, the best defense is a good offense... I already passed this suggestion on to Donald's organization on Friday, I though it was received well, so let's see if he does anything with it... His organization already took my first suggestion two weeks ago... I suggested to add to the phrase of make America great again, make America SAFE again... I heard nothing, but then he was interviewed by Chris Wallace and he said both phrases together, I hope it catches on... and now I offered them more than just a slogan... I don't know how we don't yet have a Civilian Response Corp put together by now, but I hope we do with our new President, this kind of Civilian Response Corp would be a huge deterrent to terrorist attacks in all public places... people would feel safe again and the civilian population would be proactive instead of being helpless victims...
