So let’s arm all the teachers, wait, lets arm all the prosecutors, wait, is the bounty still available? So many questions...
That is the $64 question. The world wonders.
Normally, the social agencies would be all over the guy and his family to get every gun he might come within half a mile of. Nothing of the sort here. Weird.
God so erie reminds me of alamo girls list of the Clinton years
That's my question too. Sounds more like he needed to be admitted somewhere.
That’s my question. What meds did they put him on.
This incident has me thinking. I have made a point over the last several years to get involved with local vets. Many are members at my gun club ... before they went to war. I like to hunt, fish, shoot and watch sports. So do some vets around here. Maybe it is culture thing. It is just as acceptable as playing a round of golf. Unstable people can be found on golf courses and gun ranges. The trick is recognizing that they are unstable. You can get whacked over the head with a 3-iron and be just as dead as being shot.
In a previous post, I stated that I had read that Routh’s mother contacted Kyle about her son. If true, either Routh’s family didn’t know, or didn’t say, anything about Routh’s behavior and threats.
That's what I heard on the local (San Antonio) news stations, too.

And, Adam Lanza's (Sandy Hook) mom took him to range. She had to know he was nuts and I wondered why she would take him to a range.
What is more clear is that a lot of people are getting suckered in by assuming that we need more laws against the mentally ill. I'm no prophet, but watch more rules against guns in the hands of the mentally unstable will be the ‘compromise’ solution. And based on what Ann Coulter and others have written and said the moderates that the plague the conservative movement will swallow it hook line and sinker. I don't know what the answer is, but I know that more government control on our kids or disarming veterans is not the answer. Now you can't say you were warned.
His check is in the mail from the administration.
Not only that, but it is just as likely, possibly much more likely that the suspect’s symptoms were from serious mental illness (the biochemical kind like bi-polar or schizophrenia) than they were from PTSD.
He’s the perfect age (25) for onset, has suicidal/homicidal ideation, reports severe mental distress, all of which could easily be more symptomatic of a developing psychosis as PTSD, especially if he’s been self medicating with alcohol or drugs.
But the media isn’t going to look at the mental illness angle, they instead focus on the “vets are trained killers and dangerous to society / military service is bad for mental health” meme.
This tragedy is just another brick in their wall of propaganda.

I would be surprised if they actually find exception to keeping patient records secure under HIPPA with a duty of physicians to report a “no gun allowed” mental patient.
The doctors will just go on a liberal rampage, deciding that any one under their care should not have a high health risk “gun.” Why should doctors just be able to remove a right without due process? There needs to be a process.
Or they need to forget about it and allow people to protect themselves through having their own arms.Freedom is the answer, not arcane, tyrannical supervision.
That isn’t PTSD, that’s a Gen WhyMe nutjob.
Kyle took him to the gun range in order to help him through his PTSD. He said that using guns in a social manner helps them through the PTSD.
Because no one told Chris and Chad any of this information. They may as well have been ambushed by this puke and his family.
