The point is he didn't deal with things. He bailed. Loser move. There are so many ways to get help. Hopefully his daughter is able to not be all ****ed up cause her dad was the suck.

I mean shit, it's not like they weren't sick or anything. Just losers. I'm sure he's so damn cool and good that he'll go up to troops and tell them some of their fallen comrades are pussies. |

I am glad that he introduced me to Jim Harrison during season 5 of No Reservations.

Almost every single person that I worked alongside was special forces. They had either lost an arm, leg, been wounded or were having PTSD. The military was keeping them in my safe but busy environment while they were getting treated. I've never been in war but I've seen what it does to some of the biggest bad asses in the whole world up close and personal. Judging them as weak is an insult. They were causalities of war and are heroes.

I wasn't. I was just using this thread to publicize and inform people how many vets commit suicide every day. I don't think most people are aware of high that number is. And according to my rep comments, people didn't know. Talking about vets and finding ways to help them is sort of my thing.
I stated from the start that soldiers killing themselves from the trauma of war is way way different than celebrities killing themselves. I'll step out of the thread now.
