In other news, something happened at Darnall Hospital at Fort Hood the other day involving some IVAW members. Apparently, one member was thought to be suicidal by his chain of command, but the mental health experts at Under The Hood Cafe thought they knew better and went to the hospital – who knows why.<\/p>\n
Now this fellow mixbyspyke has been talking to every media source he can find to tell the world that the Army wouldn’t give him help when he needed it – now the Army moves to stop what they thought was suicidal behavior (no, I don’t know what that was) and Kern tries to make it sound like they didn’t like the guy’s T-shirt.<\/p>\n
So as far as the ass-clowns at UTHC are concerned, they’re the only people trained well enough to spot suicidal behavior. Anyway, here’s mixbyspyke’s account of the incident in his own version of English – obviously not his first language;<\/p>\n
During a meeting at Under the Hood cafe, the chapter was informed that one of our members was admitted to the Carl R Darnell [sic] Medical Facility, for supposed suicidal tendency’s [sic]. We had just seen this member not to [sic] long ago and knew he was having problems with his chain of command for wherein [sic] a IVAW shirt on post. The chain of command told to [sic] soldier to report to staff duty and once he got there was placed on line of sight and taken to the ER because (according to the chain of command) someone had “called” staff duty to tell them that there [sic] soldier was going to kill himself. Our member was shocked by this news went along peacefully making sure to say that he was NOT suicidal but would get evaluated to put his chain of command worry s [sic] at ease… The rest of the chapter got the news of this and was concerned, and wanted to see if they could help so five of us piled into a car and went down there to the ER. At the ER our member was not in the waiting room so after asking if he had been admitted we told [sic] a seat and sat quietly to wait for the arrival of our friend. Apparently we were not allowed sit in there waiting to see if our friend was ok… the police told us that the hospitals standard operating procedure was to only allow family and chain of command in there, witch [sic] is false, but we left respectfully after the police said that we were trying to make a statement, witch [sic] for the record we were not! long story short a group of veterans can sit in the hospital wearing IVAW shirts lol.<\/p>\n
** ATTENTION **<\/p>\n
the member has since been released from the hospital and now is restricted to post and told not to were [sic] his IVAW shirt anymore, by the same chain of command that threatend [sic] the soldier saying ” i will kick your ass if i ever see you wearing that shirt ever again”<\/p>\n
– Last time I spoke to this soldier he was still wearing it and is filing complainants [sic] against his chain of command!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So the Army is damned if they do and damned if they don’t. This can all be traced back to Cindy Thomas’ yammering about young commanders who don’t know what they’re doing. Like Cindy is an expert on anything besides working people into a frenzy while they’re hopped up on coffee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
