7. It is funny, when I deployed to bosnia
with the real possibility of killing christians, their religious disposition was never a thought. I saw dead people and never viewed them in religious terms. No one did.

The man's faith may or may not have been a factor, I am sorry he did not enjoy army life, i did not really like it all that much in retrospect. I would have been sorry if he shot himself. However my sympathy for him stops when he chose to become a mass murdering bastard. An act that would be condemned under any faith. Faith is a lens that can cloud reason.

The war, guns, faith are all secondary to the choices this person made. He is responsible for his actions.
