Folks waiting for this man to think and/or verify ANYTHING before he spews BS out into the universe.

I guess sticking a label on it is easier than finding out the truth of it. Wouldn't want anyone to speak of the officers involved from how they handled this guy prior to the immediate suppression of evidence to cover up how they may have handled him. No one thought to question?

kellymagsamen He rankles someone everyday ,let's concentrate on 2020 ,get GOPCorruption out

realDonaldTrump continues to talk out his ass with absolutely no idea what he is talking about. He is a complete buffoon.

Public health & safety is harmed when politicians & newspapers refuse to state prescription drugs can/do cause violence & psychosis. Tragic that the Post fails to seek out & quote independent medical experts who have no ties to pharma &/or pharma funded 'mental health' orgs.

I am very happy to have the privilege of following a no. of veterans who do not support Trump. I pray that many more will eventually see him for who he really is. Happy Veteran's Day tomorrow to all veterans and in memoriam, to one of our nation's greatest heroes, John McCain.

The next time the NRA talks about good guys with guns remember that a job title, religion or skin color won't tell you who is dangerous and who can be trusted. If Trump followed his playbook a shooting by one ex Marine should mean all Marines and their families are terrorists.

I think we're going to discover soon as the investigation discloses that this young man has suffered a lifetime of hateful disrespect, bullying, violence, mental pain... PTSD may be a factor in why he retaliated, but the root is an accumulation of years of negativity and scorn.

WAPO is NothingButHate StopDividingUs

A non veteran obviously wrote this. Bottom line: far more veterans support trump than obama. Obama was loathed by active duty in every branch.

Really? I think there is a much deeper and more complicit reason for the shooting and you don't want the public to think about that or the theft of an election by corrupt and convicted election board. Where's the outrage?

This tweet by WaPo does not show bias in any way.

Meditation helps vets with post-traumatic stress disorderMeditation worked as well as traditional therapy for military veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder in a small experiment sponsored by the Department of Defense. One method preferred by the Department of Veterans Affairs is exposure therapy, but it doesn't work for everyone and many can't handle what it requires: purposely recalling traumatic events and confronting emotions. Meditation could be a better choice for some, the researchers said. The experiment tested meditation against exposure therapy, which involves working with a therapist and gradually letting go of fears triggered by painful memories. Meditation works,sort of. Service Dog works, definitely. Remove the shame and the cost for acknowledging mental illness, SOLUTION. I am all for finding anything to help our military and vets. Valued men and women of this country they deserve any kind of help possible. I meditate daily and it provides me with great focus

Trump reacts to California fires in the most Trump-like way possibleAll Trump had to do was go to California, express sympathy, and pledge support. Instead, he chose a more misguided path.
