Not a RC but a real and sad problematic situation. Soldiers coming back from war after seeing all the horrors and episodes that come with the reality of war and the difficulty of transitioning into modern society and can't adjust or overcome and end up taking their own lives. A study/stat came out that reported for years it was estimated that 22 veterans committed suicide every day, 7,400 a year. That's some real shit man. If you remember the ice bucket challenge for ALS its kinda like that trying to raise some awareness to this fact, as of now its not a movement to raise money for research but instead to get people aware that its a real thing and it shouldn't be.

22 pushups. 22 for the number of peoples lives lost everyday due to the horrors of war that these brave people fought in witnessed and just couldn't or didn't have the help or strength needed to see another day. This story hit home for me as im sure it will for most people. I was impacted in a way that i (without pics or video) dropped and gave 22 push ups and almost started crying. This is unacceptable.

These are real life heros, and they deserve our support so that they can tell their stories one day and live a life of honor. This must not continue, these are our people, our soldiers, our protectors. Don't let them fall.

How about rising up against the fucking short sighted pricks that make the greedy, gluttonous decisions that are sending them to their deaths?

How about treating the cause, rather than the symptom?

Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

They shouldn't sign up for war if they can't handle it. Why are they heroes? Because they killed "the enemy?"
