[quote:Anonymous Coward 7976121:MV8xNzY2ODM1XzI5MzE5NjIyXzY3MjVDNEUx] [quote:Anonymous Coward 589518:MV8xNzY2ODM1XzI5MzE5NDQyXzMyRkJCNzA5] So they're good enough to fight and die you for in the desert, but not good enough to police your streets? [/quote] You kind of missed the point. Many of the soldiers that come back have PTSD and are not very safe individuals. It's not an insult to them, it's just how it is. They are often mentally unstable and end up killing people when they do come back, putting them into a situation that will cause flashbacks could end up with a lot of innocent people getting hurt. And news flash, most of us think them being over there is wrong. If we were being attacked and they were defending us it would be a different story, in this war we are the attackers. We are in their territory, not the other way around. I don't know of a single person offline that supports them. Don't get me wrong, I respect them and pray for them, they are only following orders. But, people following orders are behind all of the biggest slaughters in history. [/quote]
Original Message
This very much concerns me.
In his state of the union sales pitch last night Obama stated that he aimed to make it easier for those returning from war to get jobs in 'law enforcement'! Can you read between the lines here? Personally i do not want 'kids' with PTSD that are used to gunning down innocent people like they are playing a video game patroling any where near my family! Anyone else notice this?
