So there would be nothing wrong with the VA issuing death penalties? The obvious question -who will enforce such verdicts?
Innocent until proven guilty is NOT guilty until proven innocent.
Hmmm. What I am talking about, is the fact; that NO OTHER GROUP OF US CITIZENS, have ever been subjected to a blanket policy, that removes their constitutional rights with absolutely no fact of wrong doing. Then be subject, to having to prove themselves, in US FEDERAL COURT against false accusations, so as to attain original status. Perhaps, WWII internment camps are an example. Yet, those internees were a least designated as potential enemies of the US. Yet, you fully support this abomination against our fellow disabled US VETERANS. Wow.
Either you haven’t read anything I’ve written, or you are incapable of rational thought.
Rest easy. Our conversation is over.
A finding of incompetency is not tied to a diagnosis of PTSD. It’s primary use is in cases where a veteran is so mentally incapacitated, most often by dementia than anything else, that they need someone to oversee their VA benefit payment to ensure they are not taken advantage of. Why it is also used to take guns away beats me. The incompetency decision is based on a statement from a physician, usually a V A doctor. The VA has noticed too many doctors indicating vets can not handle their own funds (to cover their own butts probably) and have began looking for evidence to support the doctors statement and not making a decision only on one doctors statement.
