And they're strong and they can handle it, but a lot of people can't handle it. And they see horror stories, they see events that you couldn't see in a movie, nobody could believe it.
We need mental health and medical, and it's one of the things that is least addressed and one of the things — one of the things that I hear most about when I go around and talk to the veterans. So we are going to have a very robust, very, very robust level of performance having to do with mental health."
Where is the insult in there, exactly?
Again, there are a million legit reasons to attack this guy. Can't liberals go 30 seconds without making something up?

that about sums it up
His view shows his age and lack of understanding about suicide and its causes, strength has nothing to do with it .. I have 2 of My former soldiers who could attest to the strength issue both on opposite ends of topic but they can't they both are dead from Suicide..
suicide is not just a veteran issue nor just an issue for those who have seen stuff its a national issues
