    Just because the guy is a Vet does not make him Rambo! So please, do not use veterans as crazies. He might be sick mentally, but it's not just because he's a veteran. There's thousands of veterans and none are shooting up people. Being a veteran does not make you a marksman or Rambo.

    • @jcIIXVIIIVII
      @jcIIXVIIIVII 11 місяців тому

      I agree, he had never even seen combat or experienced the horrors that TRUE veterans have experienced. He was a reservist and firearms instructor. They're definitely using that as an excuse. Sure he may be suffering from SOME sort of PTSD, as there are many causes for it. But IF he suffers from it, it DEFINITELY isn't because of combat.
      People suffering from PTSD don't typically target other people and leave suicide notes. My best friend suffered PTSD from actual combat from 14 years spent overseas in the Army Rangers. I've seen PTSD firsthand, and what that guy did has nothing to do with PTSD. That's just an excuse to make him seem sympathetic.

      Not really. I had a cousin who was sycophantic. He heard people who weren't there. I lived in Florida at the time. He was placed in a mental facility. For a long time. Where he was safe and so was the public. For the most part he was harmless. But after Florida closed all these facility's. He was put out to fend on his own. To become a police responsibility. I was young at the time. One night he showed up at my house.with a 44 magnum. That he had stolen from someone. I had a young wife and a two year old son. Scared the crap out of me. Was able to get him to give me the gun. Thank God. He was safer though he didn't like it being in a mental facility. And so was the public. This is a social problem. It needs to be addressed. Our mental health system is non existent. Honestly. Unfortunately I don't see it getting any better.

      Yes it can happen anywhere but there are a lot of places that have very low crime rates and never have violence like this in their community. I live in a close knit farming town and would be shocked if something ever happened here. In 10 years of being here there has never been anyone die from violence. Home break ins are pretty much unheard of. The only reason we ever hear about the town in the news is due to fatal car accidents. Now where I grew up 35-40 minutes from here is a whole other story. It was a nice town when I was young but now a shit hole. Shootings, stabbings, robbery, drugs, etc. Along with the neighboring towns. No one is surprised when anything in that area happens. Can it happen in my town, of course it can but is it normal here no. In areas where there is not normally violent crime people are shocked because stuff like that doesn't happen there. You are more likely to hear about a farming accident and a cow killing someone or an off road vehicle like a dirt bike injury then you would ever hear something like this. We must always stay vigilant everywhere but there are places where it is safer to live or people are surprised when things like this happen.

      2 weeks is longer than most people get. Most get a 72 hour evaluation and are released. They cant hold people in mental hospitals for long periods of time especially against their will. But mainly due to costs and insurance companies being willing to pay. You have to be an imminent risk of danger to yourself or others to be held in those facilities.

I have no interest in having a child and having them do shooting drills or explaining to them the other atrocities that exist in the US. Most people who think America is the greatest nation haven't lived in many other places. I've lived in 6 countries and America is by far the worst from violence to racism to government corruption. This shooting is just another reason why I'm thrilled to no longer call the US home.

He couldn’t be held against his will or hospitalized indefinitely. This isn’t the VA Hospital’s fault. I’m a veteran and my dad is too. I’ve become my own best advocate and also for my dad. Without that it’s the same as any other person. The VA doesn’t have the jurisdiction to go door to door looking for veterans to treat.

    This was another failure of the VA and our mental healthcare system.
    A dear friend of mine, a veteran who did three tours right after 9/11 - the SSRI’s they put him on made his issues even worse and added new problems. After continuous grievances and notes put into his psych - He turned the gun on himself. His presence is missed daily, but I’ve always counted our lucky stars that if his pain and confusion needed to yield, I’m glad it ended like that - than like this.
    *Much love to our veterans.*
    I’m so sorry our government continues to fail you after the incredible magnitude of efforts you put out and the unspeakable tragedy you are forced to take in.
    May the gods watch over us all and assess fairly when the day of judgement arrives.

    It’s frustrating that people just want to complain and come after the gun issue when this happens, but it’s the lack of mental health resources that’s the real problem. And I’m not just talking about “oh you’re depressed, go see a doctor and get some pills”. No. When you’re as mentally gone as this guy is, and you’re making substantial threats, there needs to be a long psychiatric stay so they can regulate you on medication.
    Mental illness is complicated and not one size fits all. Usually with psychosis, there’s cocktails of medications that can take months before doctors know if it’s the right fit.
    But now, instead of keeping the person hospitalized, they tell them to go home and take their meds and report back. Obviously this isn’t working, especially where most mentally ill at a severe stage, will not be consistent with their medication.
    We need state run psychiatric hospitals again, except with better standards and state inspections to insure there’s no abuse.. which is the reason they all got shut down in the first place.

      Well if he was in a psychiatric hospital not long ago, I’m pretty sure he was on something. Maybe something that was helping him and then he thought he got better and stopped taking them and went off that deep end.
      That’s the usual story with something horrible happening. That the person stopped taking the medication.
