dr. jeff joins us from new york.o take you back to 2001 because supposedly during that time this shooter, according to his father, did something during 9/11 when the world trade center towers came down. his father said he suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome and that's why in 2004 he had this incident where he shot out the cars of a construction worker's vehicle and he blacked out and couldn't remember it. does that make sense to you? >> well, we have to know that a lot of people experienced ptsd and did not engage in violence. so we have to look at what made this particular individual, if this is true, that he had this blackout or what we call a fugue state, part of a disassociation, which is part of a post-traumatic stress disorder, what made him more vulnerable to that, especially since he was a younger person and we know younger people are much more resilient to the symptoms of ptsd. so it does kind of fit, but i would assert, as we've seen with many of these shooters in the past, carol, that they perhaps

. >> my colleague last night joining me now, dr. jeff gardere, practicing psychologist, tv personality as well. when you hear those details, how surprised are you that he was able to get as far as he did in obtaining the security clearance? >> actually, i'm not that surprised because we are very, very ignorant as to what mental health issues are and we're dealing with sheer numbers when we're talking about our veterans and we know that it's been a real problem for veterans with mental health issues with ptsd to get the treatment they need and we know president obama's trying to step this up of course with the military, but it's still a major issue. >> this is what joe scarborough said this morning on "morning joe" about the mental health component of this tragedy. >> background checks, criminals, that's easy as far as i'm concerned. terrorists, yeah. that's easy. you move over into this mental health range, where it's so critically important that we encourage people to go get treatment. when does the red flag go up and when does the psyc
