Each class at the Idaho Police Officer Standards and Training Academy is allowed to choose a slogan that is printed on its graduation programs, and the class of 43 graduates came up with "Don't suffer from PTSD, go out and cause it."
...Black said the class president was ex-military, and that the slogan "slipped in." He declined to identify the graduate. Black said future slogans would be vetted by academy leaders.
Wonderful attitude to start out with, eh? The proper relationship between "civilians" and "Only Ones" has been pretty well drilled into them? And now they're ready to take on the world?
I presume they will just get more jaded and insular with experience? And by all means, protect the identity of valedictorian--we wouldn't want to give his future PTSD patients a heads up. Besides, there's a man with leadership potential.
One question--if this crop is successful at "causing it," might their victims get kicked out as prohibited persons on NICS?

"According to the Veterans Association, tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers suffer from PTSD, which causes nightmares, flashbacks, and physical symptoms that make sufferers feel as if they are reliving trauma, even many years later. Crime, accidents, and other trauma can cause it in civilians."
Well, from what I have read, that is what they are causing. Perhaps these are the "Only Ones" admitting that this is the goal.
