Default How long will it be...

....before everyone in Texas is shot dead?

“A soldier who was being evaluated for post-traumatic stress disorder
opened fire at Fort Hood on Wednesday, killing three people and wounding
16 before killing himself, the authorities said. The shooting set off a
huge police response and shut down the sprawling Army base, the same
facility where a deadly rampage by an officer resulted in 13 deaths in
2009.”

If the psychiatrists are not doing the shooting they are missing the
signs that a guy might be a killer.
Maybe it is a problem with that profession.



There are a number of significant issues with the military system's
handling of these sorts of disorders and the willingness of personnel to
truly discuss their emotional problems.

The reports I read indicated the guy saw a military psychiatrist once
and was prescribed a medication known to cause hallucinations. Were
there followup visits to the psychiatrist? Did military protocol allow
the psychiatrist enough time to make an accurate evaluation? Apparently
something in the system was amiss, because, according to a report in the
Christian Science Monitor:

"In the days before going on a shooting rampage that would take the
lives of three people and leave more than a dozen others wounded
Specialist Ivan Lopez was “under diagnosis” for post-traumatic stress
disorder, “but he had not yet been diagnosed,” the senior officer at
Fort Hood, Texas, said Thursday.

"So how long does that take, exactly, to diagnose post-traumatic stress
disorder? And does the fact that he was undiagnosed – after what US
officials describe as a history of "psychiatric instability” – mean that
the military failed to heed the lessons of some of its most recent
tragedies?"

I wouldn't jump on the old PTSD bandwagon until we find out what he
was fighting with the first victim about.



I'm not jumping on any bandwagon...just posting a news story that stated
the guy was "undiagnosed."
