    To add to that, I wonder how many of the treatments for PTSD are creating imbalances in certain individuals. Kinda like how "in rare instances" depression medication can cause suicidal thoughts. Maybe we are seeing some of those "rare instances" for everyone being treated for PTSD just like we see "rare instances" for kids on similar medications who sometimes shoot up the school.

    Don't want to blame it all on medications for psychological conditions, or the media or any other one thing but seems to be a problem that keeps slipping through the cracks. We know from what happened to Chris Kyle that there are people who need help and those who can't be helped. Seems our failure to handle both is really coming back on us with catastrophic consequences.

    This is actually the scenario I feared most, a capable and trained individual deciding to see how much damage they can do. Video gamed trained amateurs do enough damage. The shooter in this situation doesn't seem to fit the "nutjob" profile, I wonder what went wrong but I still wish he would have been stopped the moment he decided on this path.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    So I'm not seeing the media sensationalism on this one . . .

    White guy shoots up a country western bar in a predominantly white college town, doesn't fit the Identity Politics agenda. I wonder if the killer had a connection to the school, that specific bar, or the girls there turned him down time and again. But he chose that place for some reason.

    No mention of social media anything. The media aren’t camped out at his house or talking to every old girlfriend. I wonder if this investigation will go the way of Las Vegas and disappear. David

    Wait...What?? How could this have possibly happened?... What about all dem gun control laws they made?

    I mean - words are supposed to stop these kinda things, right?

    I just don't understand - if they words don't work, why do they keep on using them? Where's their common sense?

    Even a fool should know that Gun Control Laws only affect the law-abiding & have absolutely no impact on a criminal's ability to obtain; construct; or use any weapon...

    This quote CNN is reporting was on this PODS Facebook page.

    “I hope people call me insane... (laughing emojis).. wouldn't that just be a big ball of irony? Yeah.. I'm insane, but the only thing you people do after these shootings is 'hopes and prayers'.. or 'keep you in my thoughts'... every time... and wonder why these keep happening..."

    To me that statement clearly indicates an attack designed to add another nail to the 2nd amendments coffin. This is a political statement by a madman.

    None should. It's selfish once you realize how hard it is for your family. Think about the people who have to deal with you every day, and if you could make it easier on them.

    Back on topic, PTSD is only associated with violence when combined with substance abuse or with other mental health issues.

    Here is a good one:

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/thousand-...150214189.html

    His high school track coach said he "groped" her during his senior year in high school !!!!

    Are they insinuating that a high school groper will turn into a mass murderer? Brett Kavanaugh are you watching this?


    Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.

    What's worse is they have a link to a site that tracks mass shootings. I checked my city and surprise surprise, majority in the hood and gang related
