Maybe they should differ. I think that anyone who hasn’t proven themselves a danger to others should be able to own one, even people with PTSD which shouldn’t be stigmatized simply because some people with it do violent things. Most people with PTSD do not.
Unfortunately a fact that few are willing to recognize is that if you have been homeless in the US for more than 4 weeks there is a very high (like high 90s percent) chance that you have PTSD. It’s not just the military, though us vets certainly have it as well. I’ll also wager that anyone that has spent any amount of time in our jails also has PTSD. The point I’m making is that despite the common person thinking that PTSD is just exclusive to the military, it is in fact, not.
I haven’t actually looked into it, but I would wager that globally we have better than 6 billion people walking around with some form of PTSD.
That and survivors of rape, assault (sexual or otherwise,) b&e, the list of potential causes is a mile long. I’d wager your wager is not at all unreasonable.
Why? No one, zero people, who join the military or the police, do so without the intention of using force over others. These aren’t good people, I’m not going to concern myself with what category of shitty to put them under.
Yes… Because Germany held a conscription and many Nazi soldiers weren’t Nazi idealists… but rather in the military by force with threat against family. My Great Uncle died on a train transporting Jews because he was advocating for them. A Nazi officer killed him.
You’re not talking about “Nazis” here… You’re talking about ALL SOLDIERS and equating them ALL to Nazis.
I have seen no indication that he had left the service, every report I have seen thus far has indicated that he was an active member of the US Army reserve serving as Sergeant First Class assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 304th Infantry Regiments in Saco, Maine.
Maybe you should differ between those people in active service and ex-soldiers with PTSD and mental issues that makes them hear voices…

Yes. Do you think that Nazis who weren’t soldiers were good?

So you can fuck right off.
All the same in my eyes.
Exactly the mentality that the Nazis themselves had. You’re no better.
Yeah, I’ll sleep just fine knowing some bootlicker centrists think I’m a Nazi for hating everything the Nazis represented.
Many of the soldiers I know who only set foot into a hospital and only to pay for college.
Your post is ignorant as fuck
Cry about it bootlicker.
