This is insane. Your theory about students “wanting to enlist” and researching the military on their own is completely incorrect. Most students don’t just magically decide that they want to enlist. As you can see, they are bombarded with anti-American propaganda throughout their time in high school. When their teachers and friends are telling them that the military is evil they just accept it. They aren’t going to go home and try to find out the truth on their own, and they certainly are not going to go call up a recruiter. As someone who has just graduated high school and is leaving for the Army on July 3rd, I can tell you that for most of them, the only way that they’ll hear the facts about the military is when the recruiter calls their house. After they talk to a recruiter, then they can make an informed decision.

What’s the big deal anyway? The recruiters don’t have access to any information other than their name, age, grade and phone number. That’s it.

The “Facts”? Between the anti-war propoganda from the left and the sunshine blown up their a$$es by recruiters, these kids are gonna be confused as hell about joining the service.
