Any homeless veteran who is disabled or injured as a result of their honorable service to this country can now hire his / her own attorney and SUE the US Government in Federal District Court. Please see the Web site for Veterans For Constitutional Law, Ltd. and READ ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS. Have your attorney contact us and we will brief him on how to proceed.

@ciphoenix That may be true, but it is well known that veterans make up over 1/3 of the total homeless population. In Nashville area alone since I have lived here, several thousand homeless veterans have lived on the street, in spite of the fact there are several organizations including Operation Stand Down trying to help them. Just because there are laws on the books does not in any way mean that there is not a significant homeless veteran problem that is not being adequately addressed.

@richardaberdeen I assume that homeless veterans are sinners and, other homeless people are also sinners. Just as I assume presidents, lawyers, bankers, scientists and wealthy capitalists, as well as you, are sinners. The reason I assume this is because I know I myself am a sinner and, have never met anyone who has ever convinced me they are not a sinner. So what is your point? Should we just slap Adolf Hitler and crooked bankers on the back and say, go ahead, make our day?

@Santor6 You seem to have a very twisted sense of reality. A homeless veteran is a human being, the same as any other human being without a home. The reasons why people become soldiers, like the reasons why people become lawyers, carpenters and truck drivers, are complex and have a lot to do with economic opportunity and survival necessity. Your position assumes we are born in a totally equal environment and all have the same opportunities and abilities; you remind me of rightwing Republicans

@GIJew22913 I hope that in your dreams are all people that you are killed when you are Proud American Soldier. Who fight for freedom of OIL. Nice dreams.

[GIJew22913]

@Santor6 Son, I never said I wanted to kill you. And go ahead and hate me. Hate me all you want. Just know that when you close your eyes and night to sleep, there is always someone watching. Waiting. Fear the night. Fear the darkness. That's where we wait. I'll let you hate, because at the end, that's all you have. Coward.

[Santor6]

@GIJew22913 Ok, you just prove what I want to say> You are army killer that just want to work, after ypur bloody job. And you did not get enogh blood. You want to go and kill me. For what? That I call you hired killer (that you are), and hate you. I hate you redneck!

[GIJew22913]

@Santor6 W. ain't the one I would be asking. Congress authorized the troop deployment. Learn the way the political system here works first, hoss. I want to be paid not for the time spent overseas, but for the loss of work and opportunity for work since the injury. As for "paying" me "[w]ith bullet," seems to me you're making a threat. Careful sunshine. Besides, you and all your hajji buddies couldn't hit the broad side of a carrier much less a man at 800 yards. Go screw a camel, dipstick.

[Santor6]

@GIJew22913 Ask G. W. Bush to help you. Guy invented "war on terror" that you fight. In Iraq you killed their citizens and now you want to be payed for that. To be payed for killings? Ok, come to me, I will pay you. With bullet. And you was payed like all hired guns that are in your army. Do you want more money?

[Santor6]

@richardaberdeen Do yuo think that Jesus are idiot? That Jesus allow killing to forgive? If YOUR Jesus existr, he is a mafia boss. I do not need pedastal. If you killed peple. youi are killer. It isa simple. Do you want to call Jesus to approve you? Can you?
