There might be something from his combat service that may be affecting him.

If every bad cop that served in the military is going to get a free PTSD pass, the obvious solution would be to ban ex military from serving as cops. Is that where you want to head?

No. Just if someone has a medical problem, then they should get medical help.

I have placed blame for this on Obama's VA. There have been so many reports of veterans not receiving the care they needed when Obama was president.

I am just speculating on what Roy Oliver's problem is. Clearly, he should not have shot at someone in a car driving away. But I do not have the facts.

My concern is to get people who might have some sort of problem from their military service to get them the help they need.

Maybe Roy Oliver is an officer who did not get the treatment he needed. Does that give him a pass on shooting a 15 year old? No.

There would be shared blame if Obama's VA is part of the problem here.

Maybe the system needs to find the Roy Oliver's and identify them. If they are in a position where they might hurt people, then they need to be taken off the streets.
