Indeed, maybe he felt he was starting to loose it, and wanted to get out of the environment which was causing his mental state to degenerate?

I mean, certainly trying to get out with the help of lawyers indicates what kinda effort he was giving it to try to get away from the military.

He started as a Captain and was promoted once earlier this year. His rank has more to due with pay than command, and I'd be surprised if he even had a single soldier under him (but what he may have done with his patients is unknown). As far as intelligence goes, his passing med school would be a better indicator, but since when has intelligence precluded nuttiness, particularly amongst those whose motives are religious/political rather than personal.

This gets more WTF by the moment...

I think the entire diversity department in the US Army needs to get a dishonorable discharge....

According to reports he joined the Army right after high school. He was enlisted for quite a few years. It sounds like he did the Green to Gold program and used the military to put him through medical school.

I would hate that. I did the Green to Gold program.

My friend was still in the field when that happened, he just messaged me on FB.

Thank God.

Me too. One of my favourite quotes go like this:
"Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

It hits frighteningly close to bulls-eye.

Firstly, my deepest sympathy to all that lost their lives. This is tragic.

In many ways, I am with OG.

If my words here get me barred from this forum, so be it, it has been worth it.

F**k political correctness. It is time for us to circle the wagons. "Multiculturalism" is a crock of #%&*$#. It does not work, it never will, because those who demand it are the very ones who do not embrace it. A local example is Australia's asylum seekers.

As most of you know, I was near to "loosing it" a few months ago. But I did not end up doing anything like this. I'm sure in weeks to come the pen pushers will find somebody else to blame for this whole ordeal.

To my good friends on this board I make this statement:

Next year, I will be coming to the United States, most probably Texas. I am an Anglican Christian by birth, and readily admit that perhaps I have not been to church enough in my life. BUT, I realize that it is an honor and a privilege to be able to go to the United States, not a right. If I am accepted as a citizen, then I WILL swear to defend my new nation with my life, the same as I would England, despite my age.

When are the politicians, lawyers, and policy makers going to open their eyes? WE ARE AT WAR. We are in a Holy War. And it is happening around us all the time.

Something has gotta give eventually.

Rant over. Hope I did not offend.

Andy.

You'll do fine in Texas.
