Schools Allow Anti-War Groups Same Access as Military Recruiters

The Portland School Board voted unanimously to allow anti-war protesters to set up alongside military recruiters and giving them equal footing in public high schools – a move that some critics are calling an insult to the military.

Board members said the wanted to give students a balanced view of what military service might mean – outside the pitch delivered by military recruiters.

Balanced? I seriously doubt any of the anti-war people have ever served in the military.

The equal time contingent should be focusing on POLICE recruiters, NOT military.

Why would you think that? Seems to me that the ones who have been in the military and possibly been in a war, would be the first ones against it.

Only fools and dumb kids think war is cool or something to be proud of.

Which one are you?
