I can&#8217;t help but wonder if all the media\/Democrat\/elite panic about DeSantis&#8217;s sending migrants to Martha&#8217;s Vinyard radicalized this man who&#8217;s spent decades in service of his country.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.armytimes.com\/news\/your-army\/2022\/09\/29\/guardsman-investigated-for-chasing-bus-believing-migrants-were-on-it\/?utm_source=sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=army-dnr\">Army Times<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The actions of a lieutenant colonel with the Massachusetts Army National Guard are being investigated after local press reported that he followed a bus carrying senior citizens on a trip to Martha\u2019s Vineyard after assuming South American migrants were on board.<\/p>\n<p>Lt. Col. Christopher Hoffman, 51, saw a tour bus of senior citizens headed toward their East Falmouth hotel Sept. 19 when he noted a Florida sticker on the bus, the Cape Cod Times reported.<\/p>\n<p>Hoffman followed the bus for more than 10 miles, terrifying everyone on board, according to the driver, Michael Vaughn, who spoke to the Cape Cod Times.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe thought there were immigrants on the bus,\u201d Vaughn told the newspaper, following a verbal altercation with Hoffman after they reached their hotel. \u201cHe harassed us to death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An incident report by Falmouth Police Department Det. Christopher Bartolomei said Hoffman may have been impaired or suffering from a mental health event, according to the Cape Cod Times. The department did not respond to a query Thursday afternoon about whether charges were made against Hoffman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe stated he was driving and saw the bus go around the rotary on the highway,\u201d the detective wrote in the report. \u201cHe stated he got upset because the bus had Tallahassee on it, and he thought it was more migrants coming from Florida and began following it. He stated he got upset and followed the bus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe spoke about a friend that he could not get over from Afghanistan and he got emotional about this and was mad that the migrants were here and not his friend. He seemed passionate about this,\u201d Bartolomei added.<\/p>\n<p>The incident involving Hoffman is \u201ccurrently under investigation,\u201d according to the commander of the Massachusetts Army National Guard, Col. Mark Kalin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you want to hear more about the migrants, the article then devotes several paragraphs to the topic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naturally, there&#8217;s a PTSD defense to all this.
