What is up with military vets going on wild killing sprees this past week?

does it really surprise you that people trained to kill would… kill?

To some degree yes. About half the males in my high school graduating class went to Iraq and Afghanistan, most saw combat, and I don’t think any of them would go on a killing spree like the past two. I work along side many veterans, including ex special forces, and I don’t believe they would go on a killing spree.
