Wow little news about this marine and his rampage. Good job to the trooper and warden that stopped him.
Eden —
A man suspected in a Central Texas shooting rampage that left one woman dead and five others wounded was a Marine who was wanted for questioning in a slaying in North Carolina, officials said Monday.

Just for those of you that are not aware, the word 'Marine' (when referring to the USMC) is always capitalized.

so is Jar Head! Jyrene and all the others as they are proper nouns in reference to Uncle Sams Misguided Children. all of the people that post here aren't Navy and Army rejects so we really don't care about capitalizing marine. The guy had problems and didn't get the help he needed from chairman maobama care or the VA because one hasn't been implemented yet and the other has been raped of funding that is the pertinent information

Thanks for pointing that out. Although I'm not sure the guy deserves the capital "M" at this point...

(the Marine, who is the subject of this article) had problems and didn't get the help he needed from
Chairman
Maobama
Care
(our illustrious President's healthcare plan)or the VA because one hasn't been implemented yet
(ObamaCare) and the other has been raped of funding
(VA healthcare). That is the pertinent information.

Let me see if I can interpret. My edits. So the sentence should read:
The Marine had problems, and he didn't get the help he needed from Chairman MaobamaCare or the VA. This is because ObamaCare has not been implemented yet, and the VA has been raped of the funding it needs. This is the pertinent information.
Punctuation and capital letters are your friends! (Just as RX8ER)
