Sorry, but it's been almost fifty years since the war ended. When will people be held responsible for their own actions instead of being described as victims?

Excuse me, but my Son-in-Law was injected with drugs prior to being deployed to Iraq. Soldiers injected with this drug (which subsequently was withdrawn from the market by the CDC) caused Vets to commit suicide and have sudden public outbreaks of anger. Some wound up killing their families. The drug permanently altered his brain cells. He hasn't been the same person since. He's being treated for it but he'll never be the same.

GFY.

If you haven't yourself lived through a true moment or series of moments traumatic enough for a severe PTSD diagnosis then you should reflect on that statement. Some events are LIFE altering and passage of time will never erase the event from you. The "talk the talk only if you walked the walk" phrase lends credence at times.
