And how the hell did some vet with PTSD get the drop on this highly trained sniper and his friend ? Doesn't make sense.
Sure lady. Tell your BF or Hubby to ring the bell and run.

Is there proof that it was actually Ron Paul who sent that tweet?

He's not running for office again so he's free to speak his mind. Why is quoting scripture a sign of dementia?

Unless someone hacked into his twitter account, it was him. Paul hasn't denied the tweet. I don't see how Paul was incorrect. Inappropriate perhaps, but he has a point.

People tend to shoot from the hip the older they get. I personally think the whole fiasco was a Homosexual love triangle gone wrong myself. Theres something being left out the story in my mind!!!

He is free to speak his mind (even an old adage), but he should have thought a little harder on it before saying it. Old people seem to do this too often. Personally, the saying that came to my mind (when I found out that he was helping someone with PSTD) was "No good deed goes unpunished". But (although, I'm not a PSTD expert nor a psychologist), a shooting range doesn't seem like a wise place to take someone who has PSTD. The second half of RP's statement is the proper question - the first was just a commonly used adage that only the ass (looking for an offense) would be outraged over.
