Stay Away from Ft. Hood
August 28, 2020
If you are in the military, pray that you don’t get sent to Ft. Hood. A third missing soldier has now turned up dead after being harassed, hazed, and tortured for reporting sexual abuse, male on male. Sexual assault is rampant in the military, according to its own published reports. Yet, many conservative Christians still think the military is a wholesome institution. Shame on them.
Stay away from Ft. Hood. Better yet, stay away from the military.
