How sad...


Cravings - Disturbing Content

I killed people in Iraq, and now that I'm not there I feel the need to kill here.

I swear, I don't know what I'm going to do once hunting season ends.

2. We spend a lot of time, money and energy to teach soldiers to kill
but spend very little, after we are done with them, to teach them to stop killing.

3. And people wonder why the soldiers in Fayetteville, NC come
home and either hurt or kill their spouses and/or family members. It's sad that the military doesn't help these guys out after coming home.

8. Yes...THAT'S THE "TICKET"!
Starve old ladies and little kids by stealing their only means of buying their food shelter and clothing. Take away sick folk's medication. Pump toxic chemicals into the ground, the air and the water. Shatter the American dream for millions, with taxcuts for the rich and then kill off some veterans by shutting down their VA benefits that they depend of to survive. Take the heat out of thousands of poor people's homes(murder by Exxon) Lie and start wars that kill and wound thousands. The fun NEVER STOPS!

6. Sounds like that sniper
who went around with the kid and killed people in the South and then in the DC area. He was a veteran who didn't get the proper psychiatric care when he came back from Gulf War I.

10. This is just one of the many problems with war.
Once somebody kills another man/woman, they are never the same.

11. This man has been in the war too long.
This is why Vietnam veterans had so much trouble adjusting to civilian life in the years after the war ended. Their rates of alcoholism, incarceration, addiction, suicide, homelessness, etc. were far higher than the rest of the population. The fact that PTSD was not recognized at the time only exacerbated their problems further.

12. See what this war is doing to america?
The repugs probably know this and that's why they are keeping the troops in Iraq.
