Text of the page (random words):
flee in the pickup the brief pursuit ended in an arrest near interstate 35 and camp wisdom road around 8 34 p m just hours after the murders of former navy seal chris kyle and his friend chad littlefield eddie ray routh gave a long strange rambling confession a texas ranger talked to routh for about 45 minutes the night of the murders in february 2013 the ranger read routh his rights and asked if he understood ranger danny briley said routh nodded briley asked routh why he did it routh responded in a deep drawl i knew if i didn t take out his soul he would take my soul next he added i got tons of people eating my soul and i can t sleep routh also mentioned a wolf in the sky warlords unhappy with him and world counsels of men and women to solve problems he was handcuffed sitting inside an interview room at lancaster police headquarters he did not ask for an attorney but did ask to see his mother aftermath throughout the past few years eddie ray routh has shown clear signs of a severe psychological disorder routh meets the positive symptoms of schizophrenia the positive symptoms of schizophrenia include four so called first rank or schneiderian symptoms named for a german psychiatrist who identified them in 1959 which include delusions hallucinations hearing voices thought insertion or withdrawal notion that other beings or forces are putting thoughts or ideas into one s mind i e god aliens the cia etc disorganized speech and thinking and disorganized behavior in contrast you can t ignore a woman that lived with a u s navy seal that served five combat tours in iraq a woman who experienced ptsd from a man that undoubtedly carried a larger burden on his shoulders than eddie routh chris kyle s ptsd resulted in helping his fellow veterans not murdering them taya kyle said that people with ptsd work through their struggles just like we work through our struggles they are phenomenal people and it doesn t change their character taya kyle said she also said that ptsd is not a justification for murder psychologist dr bret a moore an expert in military psychology said in most cases ptsd does not lead to criminal behavior much of what is seen on this issue in the media is a result of savvy lawyers conjuring up defenses for their clients that would have likely committed the crime regardless if they had ptsd or not lawyers know that the average citizen sitting on a jury will have a great deal of sympathy for the veteran which they hope will result in a favorable outcome for their client excerpt from dr moore s article in psychology today titled criminal behavior is not a symptom of ptsd approximately 80 percent of patients with ptsd have at least one comorbid in medicine comorbidity is the presence of one or more additional disorder psychiatric disorder note that a precipitating traumatic event is necessary but not sufficient to make the diagnosis of ptsd of all the traumatic events that routh had described throughout his military history i e shooting a child on patrol in iraq handling dead bodies in haiti etc none of them actually happened according to the marines he served with delusions a false belief that is resistant to reason or to confrontation with actual facts are very prevalent throughout routh s history and another clear symptom of schizophrenia according to retired u s army major dr c alan hopewell ph d mp abpp former president of the texas psychological association former senior neuropsychologist for the department of the army assistant professor of psychiatry at unthsc american board of clinical neuropsychology eddie routh s behavior was not consistent with that of ptsd rather dr hopewell confirmed our findings that routh s symptoms are consistent with that of a paranoid schizophrenic it is important to note that a major role of dr hopewell s career in the army was as the senior psychologist for evaluating and clearing army snipers and combat veterans additionally dr hopewell was awarded the meritorious service medal for courage and heroism beyond the call of duty for thwarting part of the attack of nidal hasan at ft hood tx and for first responder actions note these views are his alone and do not reflect the views of dod or unt while routh s mental condition will no doubt play a role in the upcoming trial the claims of ptsd are without question false it is important to realize that there is still no excuse for the murders committed by eddie routh because he knew what he was doing was wrong however partial blame rest with the military entrance processing station that allowed routh to enlist with routh s marine corps command for ignoring routh s violent behavior and with the blatant incompetence of the v a lastly although routh s parents had struggled endlessly to get routh admitted into a psychiatric hospital the blame falls with them for allowing their son that they knew was mentally ill and extremely violent to go to a shooting range without disclosing routh s violent and erratic behavior had chris kyle known what we know now he would still be alive in the end one of the unfortunate realities of waging long war in two countries is meeting troop level requirements with an all volunteer military those who have served have witnessed or learned second hand of enlistees who are way below the usual minimum accepted standards being shipped off to boot camp the lowering of standards in all the categories that make a good soldier are helping to create future tragedies these tragedies are being caused by individuals who are lacking psychologically socially spiritually and behaviorally the individual who is deficient in any or all of these areas is going to have a more difficult time coping in a peace time non combat military enlistment everyday there are tragic stories about someone in the military or a veteran who has committed a violent crime usually the perpetrator family members or the media immediately place the blame it on combat related ptsd then with further examination the ptsd alibi starts to quickly unravel what the media the witless and violent psychopaths looking for vindication don t realize is that everyday we are all interacting with others who are suffering from ptsd and we may never know it most ptsd symptoms are not recognizable to strangers it would take knowing the ptsd sufferer intimately to view the signs and symptoms ptsd symptoms vary widely but usually consist of at least these three categories recurring memories avoidance and hyperarousal there may also be depression these symptoms don t manifest all at one time it is more of a cycle a roller coaster a merry go round it is ground hog day the ptsd roller costar keeps going around and around the ride isn t all bad it s just not all good there will be those sweet moments when those who are cursed with this affliction resemble their former selves when they re find joy in all the activities that made them feel alive when they make to do lists get proactive and productive and plan their amazing futures unfortunately that high that joy for life is fleeting just like the ability to feel true happiness imagine waking up and wishing it was night so you could just go back to bed pretending to be sick to avoid interacting with other human beings not being capable of leaving your house driving to pick your child up from school and getting lost even though you have been driving to the same place for four years looking in your rear view mirror to see if the car behind you has been tailing you starting things and never finishing them never finding any enjoyment in all the activities you used to love feeing like life is passing you by not being able to sleep unless medicated insomnia with anxiety not being able to imagine your future or one that is better than the present ptsd sufferers are not violent most ptsd sufferers despite dealing with their challenging reality still try to help others who are in the same situation those with ptsd are more likely to cause harm to themselves instead others allowing criminals to abuse and implicate a valid disorder that so many service members veterans and family members endure is abhorrent i am not a doctor and i don t know everything about ptsd the one thing i do know though is that i have it s urviving spouse of u s navy seal co authored by spencer walker

by saying no u s serviceman has received more than 24 months imprisonment for desertion or missing movement in the post september 11 2001 era although the maximum u s penalty for desertion in wartime remains death this punishment was last applied to u s army soldier eddie slovik in 1945 reports state that since 2000 about 40 000 troops from all branches of the military have deserted according to the pentagon more than half of these served in the u s army but what makes sgt bowe bergdahl so unique is that he deserted within the theater of operations with the intent to contact the taliban at least six u s soldiers were killed by taliban fighters during the weeks long search for bergdahl according to members of the former captive s unit official military reports confirmed an american soldier with a camera is looking for someone who speaks english u s army sgt evan buetow who served in bergdahl s unit said in a cnn interview there s a lot more to this story than a soldier walking

with the opinions of sheep lions do not concern themselves with the opinions of sheep unknown while i am now watching american sniper for the 5th or 6th time or so there are people like twinkie guzzling fat boy michael moore and now apparently seth rogan who are coming out of the woodwork to slander the name of an american hero like chris kyle with words which show their blind hatred the qualities they attribute to him only show their own confusion and downright ignorance and just how truly out of touch with reality these people are as most of you know yesterday afternoon documentary filmmaker and fatbody michael moore tweeted my uncle killed by sniper in ww2 we were taught snipers were cowards will shoot you in the back snipers aren t heroes and invaders r worse while fighting the overwhelming urge to throw my laptop across the room i sat back thought to myself how funny and ironic it is almost for this man to spew this kind of ignorant vile when he himself has never had to sacrifice anything a day in his life kind of funny coming from the same person who hates capitalism but became very rich from using it hypocrisy much people like michael moore and seth rogan weep for our enemies and curse others like chris kyle it s like chris kyle s dad said in the movie there are three types of people in this world sheep wolves and sheepdogs some people prefer to believe that evil doesn t exist in the world and if it ever darkened their doorstep they wouldn t know how to protect themselves those are the sheep more posted in news on january 19 2015 by m j alexander 2 comments seven myths about women in combat written by g s newbold lieutenant general usmc ret myth 1 it s about women in combat no it s not women are already in combat and are serving well and professionally the issue should be more clearly entitled women in the infantry and this is a decidedly different proposition myth 2 combat has changed often accompanied by there are no front lines anymore this convenient misconception requires several counters first any serious study of military history will reveal numerous historical examples about how successive generations over millennia believed that warfare had changed forever only to find that technology may change platforms but not its harsh essence to hope that conflicts over the last 20 years are models of a new antiseptic form of warfare is delusional the second point is that the enemy gets a vote time place and style for example war on the korean peninsula would be a brutal costly no holds barred nightmare of mayhem in close combat with casualties in a week that could surpass the annual total of recent conflict the final point on this myth reinforces the korea example and it bears examination fallujah iraq in 2004 where warfare was reduced to a horrific costly and exhausting scrap in a destroyed city between two foes that fought to the death the standard for ground combat unit composition should be whether social experimentation would have amplified our opportunity for success in that crucible or diminished it we gamble with our future security when we set standards for warfare based on the best case
