Where are recruiters honor and integrity being questioned? Because they target the less affluent? Of course they do. That's where the majority of our manpower comes from. Not a big secret. Because he doesn't think they should recruit in schools because they are too young? He's intitled to his opinion just like you are. Does that give you the right to call someone an ignorant foreigner? No it doesn't.

Stop trolling for an argument bradclark1. And you are either oblivious, or patently dishonest. You came into this thread in a hostile, name-calling manner, and were objecting to a point of view that did not allow the false assertions that the military seems to target only poor people in less affluent areas. You are also seemingly, yet with less vigor trying to assert something similar. Another objection I had was when SH made the illogical claims that underage kids are being preyed on by recruiters. With no evidence to support that. Don't tell me you believe that crap. Well maybe you do. I mean, after all, his nephews got it on tape. Those recruiters are sick in that guys eyes. He even said so in no uncertain terms.
And according to you, there is no comment on this thread that disrespects our military, hmmm?
Well, Mr. SH referred to US military recruiters as "those bastards". But that doesn't seem to bother you does it? Or it's not worthy of your consideration. Maybe you think he's accurate. Who knows? This is actually what he said:

Isn't that sweet? Since you defended him so vigorously and continue to do so, I'll take that as a resounding yes. Especially considering you didn't seem to have a problem with it when he said it. Instead you attack the guy defending the honor of military recruiters. Don't look for adoration when doing that. Oh, and when did I call him an ignorant foreigner? I just can't seem to find the quote.
You are ticked because somebody will go to bat for these hardworking people with a difficult task to do. And that's recruit for our military in a hostile environment that is driven by false illogical emotions. You also got mad because I may have been insensitive. Or I sounded mean.
Get over yourself brad. You're not the grand protector of right and wrong. Nor are you the judge of good speech, or hostile speech. Especially since you disqualify yourself with your own smart-a%% comments. And your own illogical backpeddling. The funny thing was, you didn't seem to give SH any grief when he made some very snide comments to me.
He started it with me by calling me "hot-shot" in a very condescending manner. That guy not only defamed US military recruiters, he proceeds to insult me. That's pretty much the root of it. I guess you didn't read any of those parts though did you? Nor would you want to. Perhaps in your mind, he and others who insult the military should have carte blanche. But anyway, that's where my own shots across the bow came from towards him. And perhaps, he should have expected it. And so should you with your little grandstanding episodes, and feeble insults.
And then you appear with your little complex, and chest beating (Defending someone who openly trashes US military recruiters) and now assign yourself the position of arbiter of speech on the forum. Do you realize how comical that is? It's funny as hell. Just like every single Global Warming thread you've gone psycho on. Simply put, if you can't handle it, don't come around in attack mode.
You threw the first shot at me, as usual, and then are taken aback when there is a rebuttal. Unreal. Bottom line though, and you better listen good. I will not allow somebody to falsely diminish the roles of our military recruiters or say demeaning things about them that are untrue. They have a very difficult mission to fulfill. You seemingly don't give a crap, but now you pretend that it's an issue for you. And you really do care. If you did care, I'm sure you wouldn't have allowed somebody to slander these recruiters and the work they do. And instead go the other direction. You are a fraud. Simply put. Otherwise perhaps you would have seen another angle instead of just coming into this thread like you do. But I'm starting to think you live for trolling this forum. Give it up. You are getting nowhere. And you just can't backpeddle like you think you can. You have not shown any support for our people in uniform here, and have been on the side that marginalizes them. You have given the perception of yourself, but are left unable to redefine it. And I find it hilarious.
