ATPSS
As a veteran who has served in battle, and taken lives. I have come away with PTSD. It is traumatic to be in a situation like that. Unfortunately, that is what our government seems to hope from its troops, so it can demonize us, and make us all look like psychopaths. I am more aware of my surroundings. I refuse to carry a gun or knife on my person, because I suffer from anxiety and flashbacks. I no longer drink to get drunk, just because I do not want to have a flash back and hurt someone with my stupid drunk strength.
But, our government wants to continue to take away my rights to own a gun, because of my mental condition. A condition that was created in a war that they sent me to. Myself, and my brothers and sisters, fought for the right to come home and live our lives the way we see fit. But, when we get back, we are told we are unfit to do so, because of what we experienced in war.

Luckily there is at least one man who is making sense with stating that a judge should be the one who chooses. Not the VA.
