Lost his mind in Iraq? More likely that he was teetering on the edge when he arrived. The men of prior generations put guys like him to shame, having gone through much worse in battle and returned home sane.

Just another Vet that Obama’s VA system let fall through the cracks.

He lost his mind when he embraced Islam.

“He lost his mind,” Ruiz Rivera said in Spanish

How long has the aunt been living here?
Why hasn’t she learned English?

An attempt to change it. He’s nuts because he converted to Islam or at the very least, identifies with Islamic goals and wanted to help advance them.

Sounds a lot like resident Odumass.

If she is Puerto Rican, she is a citizen.

The fact that Puerto Ricans refuse to learn English is enough reason not to entertain the idea of them becoming the 51st state.

Unfortunately that is exactly why the Uniparty is going to force us to accept them as the 51st state.

FWIW, I think this changes the ongoing narrative that he was a muzzie sympathizer.

He’s an Iraqi war vet with PTSD.

That won't sit well with those that insist he's a terrorist - I find myself wanting such acts to be terror/Islam driven to facilitate resolve in an all out war on it so I can sympathize with the "it's gotta be terrorism" folks.

Jury is still out but he was obviously a sick puppy and had mental problems before he went to Iraq - that may very well have put him over the deep end.
