US Soldiers commit suicide; Congress takes away personal weapons

    This is what gun control gives us. Our troops are killing themselves because of the atrocities they are ordered to commit, and instead of addressing the causes of the suicides, they take away private weapons from our troops. But keeping their service firearms to kill "terrists" is fine, I guess.

    I think this is a lot more sinister than you think. They don't want trained men and woman who could defend the American people against them to be armed.

    Otherwise this makes no sense. A soldier could just hang himself if he really wanted to commit suicide are they going to ban rope?

    I try to leave most of my personal opinion out of my posts as of late. My thought process is similar to that of yours.

    I am by no means what they call a "gun nut" but I believe in our second amendment rights. They were granted to us for a reason.

    I have my conceal carry permit and am trained to use my sexy handgun. Just incase.

    I also think that these soldiers aren't killing themselves because "they are committing atrocities"... When the atrocities that murder civilians happen, no individual soldier is truly at fault due to drones, or fighting an enemy that dresses exactly like its own civilian population.

    I think these soldiers are brainwashed by liberal people to think that they are like the devils right hand in fighting "greedy and unjust" wars.
