On the news this evening, the President discussed an increase in suicide in soldiers and the need to have better screening for mental health issues and head trauma when returning from war. And yet people still feel the need to defend a donut shop that promotes head trauma and suicide as “good clean American fun”. There’s NOTHING funny about people with mental health issues. And I can only imagine the reaction of a family who has lost a loved one to suicide---do the owners think it would be appropriate to send them suicide themed donuts as a gesture of good faith and cheer? Do they believe that strongly in their promotional gimmicks? It’s all good fun, right?
Wrong…the owners should be ashamed to open their doors every day. And those who frequent this establishment should take a trip to the VA in Palo Alto to see how funny it is when a soldier’s life is shattered due to head trauma, mental health issues, or those affected by suicide.
