Once again I think you’re right on Norm. Quite possibly this whole thing was engineered from the top to, as you say, push and push until someone snaps.
They seem determined to attack America from every possible angle. Cloward Piven 101: Push a given system into overload/collapse.
They have hit every emotional string there is to hit. And veterans are still one of the top concerns for most Americans that give a damn about their country. They started with the over the top social engineering in the military, moved to insane ROEs, cut benefits, Purged, and now are literally killing veterans in the cruelest way possible. Their country (govt) is abandoning them.
There is not a doubt in my mind that this is designed to make someone snap.
