11 year old girl from Gilroy killed by brother an Iraq war vet

.
On March 16, 2012 in Gilroy Abel Gutierrez an Iraq war vet suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, shot and killed his 11 year old sister Lucero Gutierrez and then himself and possibly his mother who is missing. This is sad and tragic for the family and friends of the Gutierrez family my prayers go out to them. The Iraq war may be over, but the after affects that are vets our experiencing is tragic. Just like the solider who is accused of killing 16 Afghanistan civilians, was suffering from severe post-traumatic stress disorder. I feel that the military played a part in both of these tragedies because they are not diagnosing war vets correctly. Diagnosing them as being fine and sending them back over to Afghanistan so they can save the military money is so wrong! Soldiers are committing suicide by the dozens and with the end of the war with thousands of troops coming home I feel this situation is only going to get worse. What are they going to do when they return home? The job situation in the states is not getting better fast enough. This will cause more stress for the war vets. The United States military better get its act together and figure out what they are going to do, to help the thousands of war vets that are coming home so tragedies like Lucero Gutierrez of Gilroy won’t keep happening.

BURNING OF THE QURAN

A modern Arabic Quran with Persian translation...Image via Wikipedia

First of all burning of any Holy Book, I my opinion is wrong. The Rev.Terry Jones is out of his so called Christian mind, he is supposed to be a Christian but he is a devil in disguise. He is a bigot and is saying every Muslim is no good and their Quran should be burned. His actions on September 11, 2010 would open old wounds that have been trying to kneel since that horrific day nine years ago. The Rev. Terry Jones actions will get a lot of people riled up especially the Muslim community. Who knows what they will do. Over in Afghanistan their already burning the American Flag and saying down with American Christianity. The Quran hasn’t been burned yet.


Rev. Terry Jones wants to burn the Quran because the Islamic community in New York wants to build a Islamic Center near ground zero. I think if the American people don’t want it built then they should protest and make their voices heard. Well The Rev. Terry Jones called off the burning of the Quran. This is a good idea on his part, because of all the violence his actions would have had on our Military and the American people. I think some people take this freedom of speech to serious. They don’t really take into consideration the consequences of what their saying will have on someone.
