I think the public is going to feel that we vets are expendable here as well as in iraq. The clerk should have just given him the money and reported it to the authorities. I don't think it was good judgement to act like he did unless of course his thinking was he didn't care if he got shot or not. PTSS can do weird things to a vets mind. However I am glad that he is alright and I hope in the future he will reflect back on this as he was lucky the thief didn't shoot him first.

I hope he's not the exception, but more the majority. I'd have just shot the guy.

The great thing about military training is that it never leaves you. A big Hooah! To us select few.
