BIG FREAKIN DEAL...GO TO ANOTHER SCHOOL. Now we know that school is not capable in teaching intelligence to students...I mean, come on, you're going to compare the virginia shootings to veterans issues? I think we need to focus on the school here, and not acknowlege their credentials.

i think i have to agree with you. dude strikes me as a giant pog. anybody know what unit he was there with?

Fake ass liar he was probably a fobit and never left the wire his plan back fired on him people that do go threw stuff like he says he went threw never talk about it but to only their war buddys.

Our current wars only generate corpses, cripples, head cases, debt, and of course..more war. Ain't the military industrial complex grand?

and secondly look at these homo gangbanging rappers, talking about weed and guns and killing. they are allowed around kids.

[copterpilot2k4]

first off he was encouraged. then gets reprimanded. and as a veteran it helps to discuss things, i wouldnt do it in a class essay but get your head out of your ass. people that bad mouth this guy never served in combat, if you did you would know how hard it is mentally. jackasses

He admitted an addiction to killing. How is this different from someone admitting addiction to pedophilia? Would you let him be around children?

He now says he is not a threat, and yet at 0:42 he said it was impossible to turn off. Not difficult, impossible. Makes me wonder how many hours he spent in front of a TV blasting people in some war game.

All he had to do was go to a VA center and tell them what was happening. Now he has made himself a pariah. Just plain stupid.

This guy is full of shit. ANyone who does that stuff doesn;t talk about it, or, want attention for it. He most likely spent his time in med hold. He looks like the type of loser that real soldiers don;t want around. Just look at his interview.

This is not fair at all. I am a little unclear as to when colleges obtained the right to demand a psychological evaluation of a student. Then for the school to reference the Virginia tech massacre as a valid reason for doing this? This man served our country. He put his life on the line and had to do horrid things that we could not even begin to comprehend. I think it was very brave for him to admit what he felt inside. It might inspire other war heroes to do the same.
