[fornax]

It appears that the USMC recruiting tactics now includes methods bordering on kidnapping. Not to mention outright lies, threats, and fraud, all part of the Marine "values", without doubt.

Repost from a leftist rag - not to mention it really, really borders on libel. Not that that would matter at all to a good liberal.

Pretty sad our military recruiters doesn't operate with the kind of scrupulousness you'd find in, say, a used car salesman. These kids are getting screwed hard, fast, and often.

Hmm, SBVFT, McCain as a traitor. Seems that a "good" conservative doesn't care either, in fact they'll even do it to their own.

Well see, if the warmongering righties would get their @$$e$ down to the recruitment office like good little Murikans we wouldn't have these problems.

I guess trolling limbaugh and hannity talking points is more patriotic then supporting bush's war...

Well since they're too scared to "volunteer" for the Army they can always put thier money where their mouth is:

I believe those making accusations against military recruiters have the burden of proof...otherwise their comments come across as nothing more then typical partisan nonsense.

If it's libel, then prove it.

That's not how it works...the author is making some significant accusations against these recruiters, some bordering criminal in nature...she has the obligation to provide the factual evidence to support her claims...otherwise, her article is libel.

Then sue them....if they think they have a case. Or perhaps they would just like to sweep it under the rug rather then keep it in the public eye??
