From the NYT article
Quote:
Decades of studies on the problems of Vietnam veterans have established links between combat trauma and higher rates of unemployment, homelessness, gun ownership, child abuse, domestic violence, substance abuse — and criminality. On a less scientific level, such links have long been known.


Wonder how that got in there?


That is funny.

Gawd...if that isn't an ultimate reflection of the liberal mindset! Gun ownership is a pathological symptom!

Beam me up Scotty.

P.S. baldeagle, if that was your catch, that's QUITE an observation. If it wasn't, thanks for the heads-up (and a link would be appreciated).
