Be around other people who straighten out the miscreants. Learn some skills that may give them some self confidence. Remove pent up anger through physical exersion (exhaustion). Maybe understand the difference between video game killing and actual killing. Plus get away from home and maybe some lack of good parenting.<br /><br />Sure not every military/ex military person is not a model citizen but I have know some pretty bad apples who went military and they seemed to straighten out afterwards.<br /><br />I don't know.

The wars we are fighting now are religion based. The church had it's turn at ruling the world.. Guess what.. It was called the dark ages!.. You want me to start linking the country's that have atheist leaders... Want to see how there crime rates are lower and living standards are higher? Besides Church/god didn't do shit to help all those little kids those preachers raped! Don't give me that shit. Religion has ran it's course! God has nothing to do with this. Mental illness does!<br /><br />Ps. If you want church in school... Fine send them to private schools. But don't try to make me pay for your imaginary friend.
