Yes, the tribes have retreated and are making ad hominem attacks.  Insulting  PTSD or using it as an insult is wrong.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Not that myth again:  https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/13/opinion/myth-spitting-vietnam-protester.html

So I guess the fact that military personnel were barred from wearing uniforms of base in Boston during the Vietnam era due to a rash of civilian beatings of military personnel in uniform doesn't count because it wasn't spitting?

Side note, my dad came back state side from a posting in the Philippines in 1972 and he and his flight crew were absolutely accosted by protesters calling names and shoving....but they didn't spit so that's cool.

No chance on having reasonable discussion with Billy. Sorry to hear what your Dad had to encounter upon his return home.

Funny that you would single someone out over self-importance. There may be some on here that feel you fall into that camp.

When chick comes on Scoop for the singular purpose of pompously informing the community how fantastic she is, how awesomely successful she is, how ultra-important she is to all of Western society, and oh-by-the-way first responders are pathetic losers, then you'll have a point.  Until then...
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

We don't know that he does suffer from PTSD.

Crash has shared that he was injured in combat.  I don't know if that includes PTSD, I'm not going to speak for him on that, but I am going to cut some slack for a Purple Heart vet. 

For the record, I've never met Crash, I don't know who he is in real life and have only exchanged a few notes with him via PMs on this website.

 Well there was that time that she "plagiarized a Holocaust denier to argue the merits of the Confederacy."   Or wait, maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.

In before the lock....

I actually am "enjoying" this thread.  We all have much more in common than our petty internet fights might suggest.  I've had the pleasure to meet a number of you, and I find the b1tch slapping going on at times here to ring untrue to my in-person experiences. 

Breathe in, breathe out...

That JB dude reminds me of the shady guy who moved into our neighborhood a few years ago.

For the record, I have met Crash. He was very nice to me and we had a good long conversation about Marquette and plenty of other stuff.

As always, we tend to judge people on how they interact with us ... which is pretty normal.

If he does have PTSD - I pray he gets any help he needs. I had figured he had some bi-polar or similar disorder as he could be very interesting and conversational at times. At other times, he simply came on to brag about himself.

I've had a lot of good conversations with him here on SCOOP. There is no doubt that many of his posts are simple copy/paste jobs and I wish he would give attribution, but they obviously reflect how he feels so I just let it go.

Overall, an interesting guy with a few issues - just like a lot of us here. I certainly wouldn't mind meeting and talking to him.

    i've got to give credit where credit is due-it's easy for us to give kudos to the posters here we "see eye to eye with" , but this was a very cool post brandy!

Such a scared and weak person.  Even given the subject matter, and opportunity, to take a humane position you can't do it.  You have to go for hatred?

On subject.......The advancements around mental health and how it is applies to those that choose to serve the country is spectacular.  I'm not knowledgeable as to how it is applied to military training and those deployed but i assume it is. 

If you work in an urban environment you see homeless vets that are suffering from PTSD every day - find a local non-profit that helps them and support that NP (if you are in KC and need contacts on this, hit me up)

S*** me. There's no hatred. I was born and raised in the inner city, stop pretending you know me. I'll be at the game on 11/10 if you want to meet up, or happy to fly to KC for a nice meal, football game and discussion. LMK

Homophobia and misogyny are both forms of hatred.
