    Maybe you should differ between those people in active service and ex-soldiers with PTSD and mental issues that makes them hear voices…

      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.

            So you can fuck right off.

        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

      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.

      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.
