How many of those are theft or violence with victims, and how many of those are more like drug/alcohol infractions, or "disorderly conduct" caused by untreated mental health problems?
- watwut 8y agoAfaik, there is more violence too. Yes, often caused by untreated mental health problems. Also more suicides. Combat situation tends to make mental health problems bigger in pretty much any aspect. It is not exactly easy or healthy situation to be in. Veterans also face negative stereotypes which does not help anything either. Pro veteran groups tend to talk about all those openly, as they want to get more help to veterans before it all happens.
