Don’t accuse liberals of being anti-military, though
greenbriar I just found out my Daughter joined the army grrrrrrr I need hugs
She is graduating High School 1 year early
she has a 3.8 GPA
she won a huge scholarship in a school of Engineering
and I just found out she joined the Army and her dad my hubby gave his blessing
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrĂ‚Â
And, of course, what follows on is primarily military hatred and derision, and support for this poor woman whose daughter is going to ruin her life, with some intermixed military support, and those supporters are accused of being military recruiters.
There are oh so many hatred comments, not going to do a mass-excerpt, y’all know how to read :D , but, here are a few choice comments
- Why did she do such a thing? Was it the recruiters at her school? They are at the school where I teach about once a week now. It breaks my heart to see the kids gather ’round them to get the goodies they give out, knowing full well they are only considering joining because the don’t feel they have any other viable options. Poor kids with limited work or college opportunities.
- Have you shown her the statistics on rape/suicide in the military?
- I have to agree. There’s almost nothing I wouldn’t do to keep my children from that. Specially a female, she’s likely to be raped as it is. The statistics for women in military service are eye-goungingly horrific.
- It does though, if you factor in sexual assualt by fellow service members
- Does she ever want to have children? Show her pictures of babies whose parents were exposed to depleted uranium.
- Does she know about the rapes and murders of women in the armed forces?
Can’t ya feel the love? Oh, and greenbriar had a hissy fit over people who support the military and saying it is a good choice and they were glad they joined actually commenting.
