I am having a hard time feeling empathy for him. As a psychiatrist he made an oath to "do no harm" independently of his feelings, the military, or his beliefs. He is a doctor first and foremost. Instead of taking care of his personal feelings with ALL of the perks he has as an officer and a doctor, he let this escalate to a temper tantrum a la Colombine. You don't see psychiatrists killing people everyday. It is part of being a doctor or even social workers to seek help, they are trained to do so. Sorry, but i am a vet and I know of the perks officers enjoy and how they are treated compared to enlisted personel. He had a temper tantrum that went horribly wrong.

No, the sad thing is 12 innocent people are dead and there hasn't been one thread about them, much |

I agree. He signed up for possible combat duty and got a lot of benefits for it. |

Refusing to serve sounds more reasonable than killing 12 people and wounding 30. |
