   Terrible story, badly covered – MEDIA please just give us the basic facts, don’t speculate, don’t bring in “talking heads” that say “Well he could have been unhappy about something!”

   Save 24/7 coverage for disasters like earthquakes, hurricanes, fires, things we need for emergency information.

   This is a terribly sad story, and commentary. It will be twisted and turned, but I do have one critical question- How did this happen in the most heavily “armed” segment of our society. It was a private security guard who brought the guy down. It also appears the Army had already been warned of this PSYCHIATRIST’S INSTABILITY six months ago.

   The military IS making changes to “past practices”, and things are improving, but it will still take time- this incident is still reflective of those “past practices”, and that should be kept in mind.

   Training warriors is not a painless or free pursuit. Freedom is not free as the saying goes. Guns do not protect the innocent. New Mexico’s newest murderer is a 10 year old who took a shotgun to his daddy’s head. He was mad. He had access.

   Yes, odd that a field grade would pull this off. I wonder how scooter is dealing with the fact a female security officer brought him down. SHE HAD GUTS!!!

    I’m more a supporter of the “PTSD by proxy” hypothesis; ie; The guy heard so many horror stories that he got incredibly traumatized by those, as if he had lived them.

    It exists, I saw it. I know a girl who heard the stories about her sister being raped by her father for all of her childhood, along with the stories of her mom being sordidly abused by her godfather. Though she was born years after the events, she was traumatized by it and became violent against men.

    Somebody can heal from his own wounds. What if you have to heal from other people’s?

    It’s like some exttreme feminists, those who believe men are onthologically violent. Most of us don’t believe that and don’t understand how somebody can believe it. But if you worked in a woman’s shelter, and your job was to listen to horror stories like the gang rape we heard about eariler this week day after day after day, week after week for several years, you would have a biased and false image of men, too. All men are not violent, but you only hear about those who are, so you believe all men are violent.

    hey frog - thanks for the truth - i almost didn’t read any more posts because they were so toxic -

    the man didn’t kill because he was muslim - he killed because he had witnessed the horrendous effects of ptsd in his patients and was afraid - his brother said terrified - of being deployed for that reason

    he’s still a murderer. i do, however, hope that the truth of ptsd gets more administrative attention - walter reed and the va etc. are either way behind or criminally blind in terms of treating our returning wounded.

    “PTSD by proxy” causes one to exclaim “Allahu Akbar” and kill and maim as many as one possibly can.

    Textbook PTSD!

    petergrt, PTSD doesn’t mean you can’t shout Allah Akbar.
