US veteran's call to arms after Chattanooga shooting

US veteran's call to arms after Chattanooga shooting



The shooting deaths of four US Marines in Chattanooga has once again thrust the gun debate into the spotlight. When former Medal of Honor winner Dakota Meyer posted a pro-gun message on Facebook, it generated a huge reaction online - illustrating how many here see the issue.
Dakota Meyer's Facebook post, which went online hours after the four US Marines were shot and killed, called for Americans to exercise their Constitutional right to bear arms.
"Now is not the time to come out waving photos of bullet holes in the glass calling for more gun control and spinning the story to yield a further separation of peoples in the United States.
"Now is the time for a call on the American people to finally realise the state of the world we are living in and the enemy that we face," he wrote.
The FBI has not made any conclusions about the motive of the alleged gunman, Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez. They do say there is nothing to link him to IS.
