I dont really know what to say about this. It really kindof pisses me off about how so many people are against the military these days.

Stupid people don't udnertsnad that the military helps make good citizens.

In the city south of me Pomona, Ca, gang violence is rampant. And the JROTC programs have gotten kids who would be in those gangs off the street, and have helped them become better citizens.

I would fight for a JROTC program at my school.

Quote:
educated many other students about the negative aspects of this training, helped increase parental involvement, and wrote letters to the school board.
So getting fat kids in shape is a bad thing...

I'd like to see what the kids (who opposed JROTC) do in their spare time. Other then keep other students from persuing what they want to do. liberals
