The MOST Compelling Reason…

…for not allowing military recruiters anywhere near a high school??

“They’re spending $4 billion a month in Iraq, but we have to cut our race relations class, which costs $12,500,” Ms. Hagopian pointed out. “That’s an important class for our kids.”

    I want to retch. Then send those pampered shits to live in an Arab country.

    They want a race relations class? It’s that important to them? They should do it for free, as a public service.
    The response? Hear that hollow echo!

    Here’s the class, kiddies: Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Even if the person has a different skin tone or religion.
    There. Now they can buy me lunch and it’s even. I just saved John Q Taxpayer $11,985 (including dessert and tip).

    Funny how my high school (close to half the student body was various minority and ethnic groups*) didn’t seem to need a race relations class. And that was back in the Dark Ages of the 70s.
    *Excuse me, I of course meant People of Minority

    Goofy me. I thought respect and tolerance were taught at home.
