get a load of this shite

they're making a solider who has bi-polar disorder (most everyone agrees on that) and abuses alcohol and who attempted suicide and who already did a tour in kuwait deploy AGAIN to the middle east. let's just say you're king george or a member of his court and you don't give a flying yoo hoo about this young man. let's just say that. WELL WHAT ABOUT THE FACT A SUICIDAL, DEPRESSED, ALCOHOLIC IS GIVEN A GUN AND MADE TO 'DEFEND YOU AND YOUR COUNTRY AGAINST THE WAR ON TERROR'! you don't have a problem with THAT? (note: i am more concerned about the young man of course. i'm just making a point here)
Soldier, After Bipolar Treatment and Suicide Attempts, Sent Back to War Zone
FORT CARSON A Fort Carson soldier who says he was in treatment at Cedar Springs Hospital for bipolar disorder and alcohol abuse was released early and ordered to deploy to the Middle East with the 3rd Brigade Combat Team.The 28-year-old specialist spent 31 days in Kuwait and was returned to Fort Carson on Dec. 31 after health care professionals in Kuwait concurred that his symptoms met criteria for bipolar disorder and “some paranoia and possible homicidal tendencies,” according to e-mails obtained by a Denver newspaper.The soldier, who asked not to be identified because of the stigma surrounding mental illness and because he will seek employment when he leaves the Army, said he checked himself into Cedar Springs on Nov. 9 or Nov. 10 after he attempted suicide while under the influence of alcohol.
