Tragic story.

Really, how is it possible for even a doctor to get inside the head of an individual and know his true state of mind?

If you knew what the average V.A. doctor looks like, this wouldn’t surprise you in the least.

It seems clear that psychiatry is not an exact science. But since that is so, why do parole boards give so much weight to psychiatric recommendations that releasing a convict won’t harm the community?

I have read that most vets are on numerous anti-depressants. Can someone confirm this?

We will likely never learn the ‘crap’ that went on in the ‘family court’ hearings. It doesn’t surprise me that most of these guy killing sprees are from desperation and a feeling that they have the ability to manage their families removed. The male has over time been the family leadering individual and family courts think they can just yank that, lots of times, based on lies and crap from the wife’s attorneys.

For every crazy guy there are hundreds more than are eaten inside by the family destroying, feminist system.

The “psychiatrists” who work at the VA are not exactly Sigmund Freud. Then again ascertaining someone’s state of mind or real intentions is really not an exact exercise.

MrT5 worked as a veterans’ benefits counselor at the VA after being in the military for 30 years. If you could have heard what incompetence, laziness and just plain animosity toward veterans by some medical staff he and other benefits counselors dealt with, you would see just how possible that is...

It is not possible in many cases especially if the patient is smart and wants to be cleared. But the military is not the communion of saints. I knew plenty of guys in the Army who would not be permitted anywhere near my family but OTOH I would welcome them on my 6 in a fight. Go figure.

Every dollar given to a Veteran is a dollar the Democrats don’t have to buy Democrat votes.

Maybe he didn’t have such tendencies at the time of the meeting with the psychiatrist. Maybe he only had them later on.
