Just a few words -

I'm fully aware of what happened at Fort Hood yesterday.

And in the miasma of blame, racism and other asshattery...please keep this tucked away.

This was a healthcare professional who lost it completely after several years of warnings anyone could see, plain as plain.

And just thought it an acceptable risk.

Burnout. Know it, recognize it and give it credibility.

The biggest invisible unacknowledged disability out there.

...

And the worst part is that there was so much warning before it came to this.

I wholeheartedly agree. Coincidentally, we had rented Jarheads just before the shooting occurred(because we hadn't seen it before and we were testing out a new blu-ray player) and I had a hard time watching it, much less imagining myself being able to handle it when I can barely handle my own, reasonably easy life.
