Just read the article to my gf, who's retired from the Army, she said she's not even surprised. Apparently similarly awful and/or disgusting situations happened on her last base, too.
<< Wot makes it doubly-bad, for me, is that the kid's mother participated. I suppose I could have excused the soldier's behavior if he had PTSD, but unless she was afraid of HIM, she should have stepped in to stop it.
Even if she was afraid, she should have stopped him. -_-

#1- this site looks like a tabloid to me. a bunch of trolls sitting around making up random shit and blowing out of proportion various news stories. most likely, we would have heard about this in america if it was real.
#2- If you actually enjoy reading about this shit, spending time reading about other peoples traumas rather than doing something productive, you are part of the problem.
Hi. Welcome to the world. Regardless of your opinion of whether or not this is "real", you should probably open your eyes to the fact that the US Media doesn't report EVERYTHING that happens. Also, if you had any sense, it would have probably occurred to you that the military is very likely NOT going to divulge a story about another "crazy soldier"--god knows they're not going to want people thinking that another Fort Hood is happening.
Also, you're replying to this thread, too. You read enough of this "tabloid" story to form an opinion (btw, did you read the linked story from England? probably not...) so what, exactly, have you done?
tl;dr: Read news from other countries.
