What is cold? He said what many, most, are wondering and/or thinking. The fact that this was military personnel suffering from PTSD makes this rather tricky for a number of parties involved. Was Routh getting proper treatment for his illness? Did a doctor or other medical professional suggest that someone suffering from PTSD be taken to a driving range? Was part of Routh's illness is that he seemed unable to turn off being at war making him a danger to himself and/or others? We night not ever know the answers but I think the situation is sufficiently odd to warrant asking the questions.

This is a tragedy. Someone who earned a life of peace and freedom, helping others causing his end.

Put him in a gunfire/war like situation while with people he should trust and let him know it's ok. He obviously didn't respond how they expected Posted via Mobile Device |

That's how CNN was portraying it today and seems logical. I wonder though if Kyle was in contact with mental health professionals or decided this would be a good idea on his own.
Edit: OK so watching AC360, they were saying the shooter said to his sister, "I traded my soul for a new truck." So maybe it wasn't about exposure therapy and more just you're one of us therapy. Maybe it wasn't shooting that flipped the guys switch but something one of the victims said or the guy was jealous or something. Last edited by KChiefer; 02-04-2013 at 07:55 PM.. |
