Frustration, anger or the thought life is over: does any one care? The shootings are increasing because we as a society no longer care. Every one gets angry and frustrated when the persons killed are from their own family or friends. These same angry, frustrated people had no concern when it was the other person that the police, courts or government were ignoring or provoking. The news media no longer tells the unbiased truth. The head lines crucify the defendant as not to anger those with power by revealing the true cause. People are so concerned with self preservation and money that the other persons does not matter. Veterans, homeless or not are cast aside by society as not to increase a budget of already wasteful spending. Veterans become frustrated, and angry.
Suicide is a very close option for Veterans because even as we become less, our goal is to make life better back here. The angry shootings may not be that. They could be a subconscious belief this is the medicine the U.S. needs to wake them up. You send us off to war as children. We survive in subhuman conditions and do things that our conscious tells us is wrong. Months or years later we return to the “world” only to feel alienated or guilty. The police, courts, government and society harass us and cast us aside. Our family and friends believe that we are a burden because of the inconsistent or wrongs that now alienate us. We change jobs or become homeless because we are now a leech on societies perfect life. The inhuman life that we once lived now is the norm. We admire how the children we grew up with are what (while we killed) dreamed of coming home to become. The line “what are we fighting for, next stop is Vietnam” became famous because of a song but I bet every Veteran asked that question while there. If you cared about Veterans you would not let so many returning die in shame, by suicide.
I remind you what the State of New Hampshire is doing to a 100% service connected disabled U.S. Marine and no one cares. Suicide would end the constant thoughts of what I did. I feel no guilt or shame for my actions just that realizing what the U.S. does to returning Veterans makes us giving everything for you worthless. I can not be violent or stop because I can not shame what so many Veterans over the history of the United States of America gave for our Freedom. Is it a crime to stop a disabled Veterans medical to frustrate and anger to provoke suicide? Why has the news media allowed these Veterans to be persecuted?

Why not?
I don't know your situation, I've only read a couple of postings..... I'll tell you why....NOBODY GIVES A FLYING F**K. I can't really come down on people for it, because it's probably a lot healthier that way. All the self-centered people I meet seem fairly content, while I'm...well, not. Seriously, how can you enjoy eating your food if a starving third world child is looking at you? So people just look away and switch the channel back to American Idol or crap like that. If I see a homeless person (vet or not, hungry or holding a crack pipe), I'll give him a dollar or two......and feel like crap anyways, with less money. Although your situation sounds pretty bad to me, are you sure that it is deliberate intent to harm you? Or, is it simply that they don't care? Why should they care? Once they've squeezed all they can squeeze out of us, why bother anymore with you? They can feel relatively safe, knowing most vets aren't going to actually come hunting for them, (and blow up in self-righteous indignation if justice actually does come for them). So, the question is actually "Why not kill?". Unless you believe in God, in which case, ask Him for help, then hold your breath. I guarantee all of your problems will be over in a couple of minutes.
