What Do You Think Is the Suicide Rate of Our Veterans Per Day?
Question by James: What do you think is the suicide rate of our veterans per day?
From the anti war . com website it is revealed it is 18 per day or 6,720 per year and so today we lost 12 to a killing spree while 18 others took their lives from PTSD, HOMELESSNESS and DRUG ABUSE due to the horrors of war. So, should we get out of war completely? Is this the answer we wanted for 911? Your thoughts?

Testament of Our Soldiers – ***WARNING: The song used, “Testament of a Soldier” by 4th25 uses strong language to convey our military’s frustration and anguish with the American people’s views on their service to this country by fighting in our war on terror. If strong language is offensive, please do not view.*** ***Disclaimer: I am not associated with the IAVA in any way besides being a receiver of their newsletters, a petition signer, and a donator. I use them as a reference at the end for anyone who would like to help the plight of our veterans. They make no affiliation with a political party OR an official view of why we should or shouldn’t be in Iraq or Afghanistan. They exist simply to help our veterans and to push for legislation for better care for our veterans.*** Some realities about our combat veterans and what they face and how you can help. www.IAVA.org Traumatic Brain Injury, suicide, depression, alcohol and drug abuse and lack of timely health care are some serious issues our soldiers returning from war face. They have given of themselves and sacrificed without question. It is time we, as a nation, come together to show our appreciation. “Support Our Troops” is more than a cute yellow bumper sticker to wear on your car. WARNING Any disrespectful comments that degrade or disgrace our soldiers will be promptly removed and you will be blocked.
