Seems to be an American problem for sure.

Aside from the scenerio in CT, the U.S. also has another problem yet to be faced.
Returning service men and women are committing more violent crimes now than any time in history, aside from the mental health problems of these people being at an all time high.

Just another pot simmering..waiting to boil over.

To not recognise that the U.S. has a high number of mentally ill people in the population, that is prone to serious violence, while feeling superior to the country's listed is nothing more than hiding behind your finger.

Take another look.

turning a blind eye will not make this impending disaster go away

hiding behind your finger wont help address the mental health needs of the men and women returning after their service is over.


look deeper jake.
