Afghan shooter, Part II
Everyone's out getting drunk while there's this: Military Sources Name Army Sergeant Suspected in Afghanistan Massacre
4 deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, lost part of his foot, had a traumatic head injury, wife and 2 kids at home, troubles there, on the home/marriage front: Suspect in Afghan Attack Snapped, US Official Says.
Poor guy. Sure, I feel for the innocent Afghanis, too, absolutely. But this guy needs needs his wife, kids and country behind him. What he did was wrong but the war is wrong and he needs help, at least. It pains me that he's only about 45 minutes from home.
I feel sick for him and have since I heard about it. Happy St. Patrick's Day, America. A man's life may well be ruined for you.
