Bushist Fascists to Vets: It's All In Your Heads, Suckers!


No purple hearts fer vets with post-traumatic stress disorder.

No wounds. No actual wounds, you see. It's sort of like waterboarding. No wounds there, either. No biggie.

Oh, except there are wounds generally speaking after one shoots oneself in the head in the process of committing suicide. So wouldn't that count? Wouldn't count if you just take pills, though. And what about wounds inflicted on other people by people with PTSD? Would those wounds count as wounds, ya think?

Suicide Attempts Jump for Vets by 500% In Five Years and Government Ignores It.

What I find curious is that conservatism is predicted on history - obviously selective history.
Support for vets is 'proper' in a civilised society. It is also, historically, essential to mitigate wider social impacts.
