NC, Southport, reports of a mass shooting at Southport Yacht Basin, September 27th 2025.

Did all his strange paranoid behaviors begin only after that brain injury or is there evidence of him being "different" before that also?

I assume he would've had to demonstrate a certain level of psychological health in order to join the military, but who knows what might have happened since then

Seems he joined the military after 9/11, so that tells me he was someone with fixed determination, which is admirable but perhaps also allows beliefs to get "stuck" to the point of becoming paranoid and obsessive.

I am in no way qualified to know, but am wondering.

I do think his serious head injury, plus what seems like very traumatic emotional experience while in combat, had severe effects on him. When we send young people off to war, we have to accept them back again, and it seems some are left floundering. imo
