Army recruiter rapes woman
Yeah, I can hear the wingnuts whining about how she shouldn't have been at his apartment, she was 'asking for it' etc., yank-yank...

rmy recruiter is charged with rape

Gainesville Police arrested a U.S. Army recruiter Thursday, alleging he raped a woman who had gone to the local recruiting office and was interested in joining the military." ... "She goes into the office and talks to him. He tells her she is overweight and needs to work out," the report states. The woman agreed to go with so they could go to a gym at his apartment complex, police reported. ... "The two were reviewing the woman's test scores and sitting on bed, an arrest report states, when he grabbed her, pulled her down and raped her.

5. He got a mixed message when they said "If they're not fit for duty,
f*ck 'em."

Okay...that was horrible. I know it.

2. If he is indeed guilty
then will he go to state prison or military prison? Either way, he should do time, if he's guilty. I just hope that people don't judge all recruiters by this one guy. But I'm sure some will. Sigh.

3. I judge all recruiters
not for what this guy did, but for the fact that they're enticing young people to make would be a horrible mistake right now.

10. Did you hear the bullshit they are telling them? There was a recording
on Springer this morning with a recruiter telling this guy that more people have died in Columus Ohio (I think) in car wrecks over the last week than have died in Iraq. Also told one of them that the murder rate in the US was 35%, which is higher than the mortality rate of 1% in Iraq. We'd have to be losing about 80 million people a year to murder to meet that claim!

6. Army Recruiters are on a real winning streak.
Next, we'll discover they were responsible for 9/11.

8. This Is EXACTLY Why We Can't Have Wimmin Joining The Military
I mean, in what possible circumstances can our young American men restrain themselves from the heavy temptations of feminine wiles?
