beat me to it. i was going to say mulva.Deloris? wow, that's cold. Sounds like he still doesn't get what he did. Idiot.
just for clarity, the player made some lame excuse and a dude called him out on it using the forbidden word

Thanks for the clarification.This was a response to the player accused tweet. The player didn't use that word in his tweet. It was about his family being in the military.
There used to be a TV show called "Men of a Certain Age." If your references are quotes from Seinfeld, Pulp Fiction, Tombstone, etc, then we're both a a certain, particular age.beat me to it. i was going to say mulva.

Barners are saying that the players just wanted to pet her dog and she went off on them and made all this up.
yes, that particular age is staring me in the face every morning when i look in the mirrorThere used to be a TV show called "Men of a Certain Age." If your references are quotes from Seinfeld, Pulp Fiction, Tombstone, etc, then we're both a a certain, particular age.
Yeah, well, you don't pet service dogs either. I'm sure we've all seen a seeing eye dog that has a big fat sign on it that says, "I am a service dog. Please do not pet me."Barners are saying that the players just wanted to pet her dog and she went off on them and made all this up.
Rodney Carrington had a song about that.yes, that particular age is staring me in the face every morning when i look in the mirror
im hoping it isnt "show 'em to me"Rodney Carrington had a song about that.
What it is is in the name. Traumatic stress... it is relatively common among combat veterans due to the fact that war is an extremely stressful environment, but for instance whether or not you were sexually assaulted as a direct result of military service or not would have no bearing on whether whether or not you got PTSD. Next to warfare, sexual assault is one of the main causes of PTSD.I was surprised to see she suffered PTSD as a result of sexual assault she experienced. I had always been under the impression PTSD was a combat related condition, but evidently I was wrong about that.
I'm 28 but Pulp Fiction and Tombstone probably make up 20% of my movie quotes haha. Two great movies.There used to be a TV show called "Men of a Certain Age." If your references are quotes from Seinfeld, Pulp Fiction, Tombstone, etc, then we're both a a certain, particular age.
I listened to a podcast this morning about how the military prepares you to kill. They don't prepare you for what to do about it. This is an interview with an author who wrote a book on the topic. I found it pretty interesting: http://www.artofmanliness.com/2015/02/08/podcast-100-the-kill-switch-with-phil-zabriskie/What it is is in the name.

War changes people in the same way that rape does. My brother honestly doesn't act quite the same after he came back from Afghanistan, I know he killed a bunch of people, I'm not sure how it could not change you to be honest. Same goes for rape, but of course PTSD is a specific response to that sort of trauma.
Even if it falls further to the side of the Auburn players the right response is to apologize and insist no harm was meant and you have only respect for veterans. Humility goes a long way in repairing a rift.The Auburn side/version of the story:

As with most stories, I happen to believe the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
I'm surprised they didn't skip straight to the "She's a cleat-chaser who was mad because they wouldn't call her back after she slept with them" defense.Barners are saying that the players just wanted to pet her dog and she went off on them and made all this up.
That's terrific, Mulva.Deloris?
Yeah, it is hard for someone who's never gone through PTSD to understand how it impacts people. I'll never forget being in a check out line behind a woman who out of the blue turned around and told me "You're standing too close to me step back NOW!". I was caught so off guard my natural reaction was to get defensive. Long story short she had just been raped in a parking lot across town several months ago. Manager was called over. Quite embarrassing for me. I guess it was for her as well but she didn't look at all embarrassed. She looked like she was saving the world from another sexual predator. I was very, very angry. But what do you do? Her circumstances caused her to be that way.Even if it falls further to the side of the Auburn players the right response is to apologize and insist no harm was meant and you have only respect for veterans.

When people have disabilities or problems such as this, we should all try to make reasonable accommodations for them. That doesn't mean ALL accommodations. That lady was acting crazy.Yeah, it is hard for someone who's never gone through PTSD to understand how it impacts people.
