Re: Welcome home PFC BRIAN SHARP!! NORTH IDAHO STYLE...
Don't let the boys go over there. They signed up to kill whoever, didn't matter. I only celebrate the return of those who were forced into killing against all their priciples. It was in Vietnam and Korea and WWII, and it was called "The Draft".
Why are parents encouraging/allowing them to go kill strangers who haven't done anything and are not a threat?

You should've gotten him a real job out of school. Most join for being poor and no other options. Then God's commandment "Thou shalt not kill" goes right out the window, and the parents must agree, because all of a suddden killing is OK them, as long as you've learned a skill. Waving a flag is more important then some "raghead's" right to life.

Shame on the parents who allow this, fighting treasonous Bush Wars.

OK you're kid is home. Ask him how many did he have to kill to support the military industrial complex!?

I'm glad he's home safe, but I urge all parents to not send anyone to fight illegal, greedy corporate wars. If they encourage it and they are maimed or killed, I blame the parents for a lousy upbringing...OK, you turned 18, now you can ignore God's 1st Commandment...George Bush is your new God.

You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. Here’s a link from 2008- this has been the trend since early 90’s.
[link to www.heritage.org (secure)]

“U.S. military service disproportionately attracts enlisted personnel and officers who do not come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Previous Heritage Foundation research demonstrated that the quality of enlisted troops has increased since the start of the Iraq war. This report demonstrates that the same is true of the officer corps.

Members of the all-volunteer military are significantly more likely to come from high-income neighborhoods than from low-income neighborhoods. Only 11 percent of enlisted recruits in 2007 came from the poorest one-fifth (quintile) of neighborhoods, while 25 percent came from the wealthiest quintile. These trends are even more pronounced in the Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program, in which 40 percent of enrollees come from the wealthiest neighborhoods-a number that has increased substantially over the past four years.

American soldiers are more educated than their peers. A little more than 1 percent of enlisted personnel lack a high school degree, compared to 21 percent of men 18-24 years old, and 95 percent of officer accessions have at least a bachelor's degree.”

Heritage Foundation, you dare quote them? I used to work next door to them in 80's in DC behind Union Station. They were nothing more than an ultraconservative political action group with a dumpy storefront building on the 2nd floor. Paid stooges. GHWB clowns.
