re: #87 A Mom Anon

And since we’re on the subject kind of, can anyone with military experience and service explain to me the concept of using weapons as part of PTSD therapy? My husband has a friend who was in Desert Storm who says hunting and killing animals is “therapy”. This dude had to kill someone who got a weapon from one of the men he was in command of inside a vehicle. How does killing more help? I want to understand this, because he’s not the first guy I’ve heard say this.

Chris Kyle was shot and killed by a veteran with PTSD whom he had taken to a rifle range for “therapy.”
