Totally agree on the 'hero' question. Not heroic to me.

If I wanted to read into the article and get something out of it to stick up my ass with a hair, I would say he's making it more difficult for those people who are injured in war and do not go back. Suddenly their contributions mean less since they weren't willing to repeat their actions.

Or maybe I'd say, he has a son. Shouldn't he stay home with his wife(?) and son? His boy will need a daddy. He already escaped death once, is he trying for suicide by military?

But I don't want a hair up my ass. He likes killing people for what I consider bullshit. He overcame an affliction. Good stregnth of character in that.

I'm done.


Old men, fear me! You will shatter under my ruthless apathetic assault!
