Veterans Aren’t Having Sarah Palin’s PTSD Scapegoating

“Palin is using PTSD as an excuse to shift blame away from her son’s domestic violence,” said Brandon Friedman, the former digital media director for the Department of Veterans Affairs.

He continued, “She never mentioned the actual victim. She portrayed her son as the victim, but never talked about his girlfriend, apparently crying and hiding under a bed because he beat her.

“The fact is, veterans who have PTSD are far, far more likely to harm themselves than they are to harm others,” he said.

Usually “occupy” language has too much of hyperbole and rhetoric and the tone is full of itself to be of use to anyone outside the choir but this made me laugh. Palin’s son sounds like he was a psycho right off the old block way before GWB sent him to the sandbox. Wow, that family is the best argument for family planning, birth control, and abortions the country has ever seen.
