As the human population vaults upwards past 7 bil. insanity will be an ever increasing problem. FOX news is proof of that.

I know the area where this occurred. It's middle class, has some old homes, many new homes, new strip malls, it's basically a town built around Route 9. Route 9 runs from NYC (it's Broadway) up to the top of NY. This is a harsh story. She definitely flipped out with despair over the suicide of her son. The son was apparently a vet of the M.E. or Afghanistan, he clearly had PTSD. All these vets with PTSD are all over the country and the V.A.s are not taking care of it at all as we know, they don't have the staff to meet the demand. I pin this one right back on the neocons and Bush the lesser for starting that insane war, that was a case where insanity was sold as good old American patriotism.
