join the army and drive a bmw

OR join the air force and drive a mercedes

This is what the Army recruiter told my daughter's 11th grade history class last week.

My daughter (thank God she is so smart) replied that her uncle has been in the air force for 20 years and can't afford a Mercedes.

WTF is wrong with these recruiters? And he didn't even mention the war in Iraq...

He did bring along a couple of young soldiers, one of whom is reported to have said that it's fun to go overseas and kill people. NICE.

I'm sorry but I would rather see my child in prison before hearing her say something like that.

And before you go off on me, I have 'earned' the right to talk about this because, you see, I was in the Army myself. I know what it's all about. It sucks. And that was during peace time.

Military recruiters should be banned from the public schools. Believe me, the kids know they are there and if the kids are interested, they will join.

I am considering filing a formal complaint about this man. What a jackass.

I need coffee.
