“Then, when they grow up and are not winners all the time, they become depressed and suicidal.”

Hi, joma89-!

Don’t forget they developed and intense anger at anyone who doesn’t let them ‘win’ at every game or get an ‘excellent’ at every task they do.

My youngest would accuse me of cheating when he would lose at a simple game of chess or a game of checkers.

Turns out an adult who he also played with would let him win every single game; no matter the game, he always won. The adult was concerned about his opinion of himself!

I read that person the Riot Act.

The stupidity of that adult was simply mind blowing.

When we were in there was a pride in it. You shined your books to a mirror polish to show you deserved your Airborne wings and you ironed and starched your uniforms so that cheap, durable clothing would look like it was top shelf. Slowly the “starch” was let slide. Suede boots. No one has to spend hours with Kiwi. Rumpled camoflouge becomes acceptable. All the little things erode first. And when all the little things are gone the big things just roll downhill.

Bingo. It is covered up at every level. These are extraordinarily violent assaults.

For years the military has been lowering the mental and physical standards for those who enlist.

It couldn’t be because the military uses far too many reservists to be policemen? It couldn’t be because the people sent to fight are too afraid to pull the trigger because of what the lawyers think? It couldn’t be because the PC bullshit in the service makes it impossible to do your job for fear of using the wrong pronoun.

It’s not Obama’s actions that are causing distress, it is the degradation of our culture and the misuse of our military.

Homosexuals have a much higher suicide rate than non.

They let homosexuals in.
