michaelkrohde San Diego, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Jun 26, 2012 San Diego is famous for its' hawkish views and with the local Marines always 'first to fight' you'd think there'd be support for disabled vets locally. Think again. Our veterans are just a cost associated with globalization and locals are showing their true colors when it comes to supporting disabled veterans. Not in my neighborhood say San Diegans.
jay Athens, GA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Jun 26, 2012 http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-ptsd-... Move all U.S. military facilities out of the cesspools San Diego and California. These idiots don't deserve or appreciate them.
The Mad Man Long Beach, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Jul 1, 2012 I don't want to hear San Diego cry about anything. PTSD/Trauma affects everyone including the people who feel the need to express the lack of care/concern for our veterans. These are soldiers who have suffered in many forms and NEED as much support and help as they can get so don't turn your backs on the vet. If you do, you may not like the results. Just piss off someone with PTSD/Trauma and see what happens. How lucky do you feel?
