If the cadets felt coerced being invited to a movie, I sure hope they don't have to fight in a war!

I guess if they weren't invited they would be screaming discrimination and exclusion.

These people need to grow up!

Right on target; if the poor darlings feel coerced by an invitation, they have no business in a military officer's uniform.

Inasmuch as Jesus commanded disciples to perpetuate themselves (the great commission, Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15,16); to demand that Christians NOT evangelize is to demand that they not practice their religion.

Yeah, you'd think somebody would file a lawsuit. Oh wait, the ACLU and lawyers in general have been knowingly hiding behind sophist arguementing to advance their Radical Secularist agenda for decades...Sorry I forgot the lay of the land for a second there.

I was offended and coerced by the MSM and the far left wackos but instead of crying about it I solved the problem myself.

I turned to FR! ;)
