Walter B. Jones Comments On Crimes Against NC Servicewomen
Foul-play, murder and mystery surround two military bases in North Carolina. Members of our military seem to be involved or implicated in horrific crimes against female soldiers.

This latest crime involving another death of one our service members possibly by the hands of another has many of you wondering why.
Early this year, Maria Lauterbach's body was found along with her unborn child, in a shallow grave in the backyard of Corporal Cesar Laurean.
Then just three weeks ago, another pregnant servicewoman was found dead in an motel room.
Fayetteville police are investigating the death of Army Specialist Megan Touma as well as the disappearance or Wimunc.
We caught up with Congressman Walter B. Jones to ask him about his thoughts on these types of crime involving our military. He says:
"Crimes are committed both in the military and outside the military, we have it everyday here in eastern Carolina...the only way we would be involved in that is that if there's a mental condition and again that's not just talking about this situation we're talking about being able to provide the mental health to those men and women who have fought and are coming back home"

There is a problem, but it doesn't have a (darn) thing to do with combat. The problem is that we are going into our 2nd generation of young people being raised by other young people with no values what so ever. They are growing up on MTV and video games. They are growing up exposed to violence and sex and drugs almost from the cradle. They have no respect for other people much less have any value for another human life. They think they are owed something, from who I have know idea. This stuff happens everyday all around the nation. These just happened to be local and in the military. It isn't military related. These kids are growing up in single parent homes with a "parent" that wants to be their "friend". They are not taught respect, discipline, patience, or about God. We will see more evidence of this as every passing year goes by. It all goes back to two things....the break down of the family unit and the wacko liberal policies we allow to pass for mainstream behavior.
Slight Edit
We don't need another generation of veterans feeling sorry for themselves.
Do hit the nail on the head with Obama. As another Viet vet who served under both Democratic and Republican administrations I can tell you the military loses under Democratic administration.
