This piece has a lot of detail on the Tennessee shootings at two military recruitment bases.

Donald Trump is all over this story, tearing Bill Clinton up for declaring military bases gun free zones, and using the shooting to advocate for gun rights and the second amendment.
It was actually George Bush Sr. who enacted the law shortly before leaving office, but Trump didn't mention that. There are armed military police at facilities, but not all soldiers and personnel are permitted to carry (attempt to reduce on-base gun violence).
President Obama expressed condolences to the families of the Tennesse shooting victims and promised a thorough investigation.
The shooter was a naturalized American citizen, an Engineering graduate, and had not been on the FBI's radar.
The shootings are being labeled acts of "domestic terrorism" though motive has not been established.
