PTSD is one of the most complicated and at times under-treated conditions plaguing countless veterans, so why not sum up your thoughts in 140 characters or less? What could possibly go wrong?? Ron Paul knows (now).
The tweet that started it all:
Chris Kyle's death seems to confirm that "he who lives by the sword dies by the sword." Treating PTSD at a firing range doesn't make sense—

A later tweet:
As a veteran, I certainly recognize that this weekend's violence and killing of Chris Kyle were a tragic and sad… on.fb.me/14NztZ8—

Don't understand what the controversy is about. Ron Paul speaks the truth. Why would you take a person who is very obviously mentally disturbed to a shooting range and give him a loaded weapon? Even his mother said something about Mr. Routh wanting to blow his brains out. Mr. Kyle may have been the deadliest sharp-shooter but as far as I can tell he did not have any kind of professional schooling in dealing with mentally disturbed individuals, even though he had worked with others with PTSD. It's a sad and tragic event but it surely could've been avoided had Mr. Routh received the proper care at a place where these types of conditions are handled on a daily basis.
