NRA should be the center of attention

Which is probably why this whole F&F thing started, when RW bloggers were incited to distract, misinform and preempt. Their false premise that this is a ploy to interfere with 2nd Amendment rights, is obstructionist because they have something to hide.

Repeated intense pressure and no hope for a better future.

While the reasons for the increase are not entirely understood, the army's own data suggest soldiers with multiple combat tours are at greater risk. But a portion of those taking their own life have never deployed, the figures show.

They face a horror that they don't have any comprehension of or even a glimmer of how to handle and I am guessing that there is no support for them and no relief in sight, so suicide looks like a way out.
