"Too many Democrats" said my next door neighbour

Several months ago he was talking about moving to Arizona. Prescott, he said. Does not like desert but his spouse’s family live closer.

He was in the Navy, busted for growing marijuana but was saved from jail time because he suffers from PTSD.

During the fall we each had our yard signs. His lost, mine won.

I saw him the other day. We just closed on a house in Missouri, he said. What happened to Arizona, I asked.

Got the above reply. I bet this is news for many, but maybe not.

People act like you can catch it off the dam toilet seat.
I did 24 yrs in the Navy, dirtwater type. Deployed many times. Most people are full of it with their PTSD, most are self diagnosed. Best adjusted and mentally stable troops are front line trigger pullers. Per US Army suicide study.
Which showed that these troops had a lower instances of suicide than the general public. Highest rate of suicide in the general public is Young men with access to weapons. Which is the bulk of Military, but the numbers were lower

OK, I'm biased - one of the biggest right wing former friends I have was from Prescott.

Your neighbor proves, once again, that Reich wingers can't math.

Or science....

Or think independently....
