It's not like you can just want out of the military and it's granted in the snap of a finger, it doesn't work that way and he knew that when he enlisted.

It's such a tragedy, I come from a military family and it just strikes so close to home. I always feel so safe on base, no matter where that happens to be, it's such a false sense of safety and security because I've always felt it was a close knit family. You just never know what can happen in any environment, obviously this man had some problems and now innocent people are suffering because of that.

I think the worst part is that this man was part of the mental health community, he was supposedly evaluating or helping soldiers who were coming back from combat zones. Whether he got scared and didn't want to go overseas or he objected to going to combat in years past, when he signed up for the military he knew that combat was always a lingering option. He would have been overseas as support, not with ground troops probably not even on the front lines, his way out was the worst possible thing to do, taking the lives of others is horrible.

A lot of soldiers don't necessarily want to go to war, but they do it they stand up and do what they have to do. There will always be things we don't know about this case, this day will stay with those people who were in that building and the family of those lost forever, and that's a travesty.
