“1 in 3 urban youth display the symptoms of mild to severe PTSD. And when you compare that data to the military data what you find is urban youth are actually twice as likely as soldiers returning from Iraq to get PTSD.”

You're tired of people who have been getting shot at thousands of miles away from their friends and families for getting the attention of a common and traumatic mental illness in their trade that ****ing ruins them ?, it's not like they asked for it or are preventing others from getting treatment.

Wow. The neoprogs are butt hurt that soldiers can out victim them. Quick, we need some weak "science" to make poor minority kids have one up on the male privilege of veterans!

[Ruthless One]

Correction: it's supposed to say spoiled urban youth twice as likely to be more EMO than soldiers

Interesting. I wonder why there isn't a rap song about that yet.
