If job and vocational recruiters have the right to recruit on campus, why shouldn't the armed forces be included? Just because some are anti-war, do they have the right to restrict the choices of some students who may want to join the armed forces. If I choose to eat meat choose non-meat eaters force me not to eat meat? If I choose to marry someone of my choice, should my parents or my friends prevent me and force me from choosing my mate?
To me freedom means so much, I can't imagine any rrestriction on my rights. Somehow, I do think that freedon has to be protected. People of free societies have the right to assembly, to speak openly, to protest too. Should anyone protest to keep a free person from exercising his or her rights to make free choices such as joining the armed forces.

If the school doesn't allow military recruiters on campus, they should be cut off from any and all federal monies, grants, scholarships, research funds, etc..

I would be the first to volunteer to give the college president a good swift kick in the @ss for denying recruiters the right to recruit on campus. These silly people forget the days of the draft when a student didn't keep up his grades, he was wisked away to visit Uncle Sam for the next two years.
Federal subsidy or grants should be denied any college or university that denies the practice of military recruiting. These schools become havens for dead beat liberals who believe that national security and military service is some one else's problem.

on account that i'm a disabled veteran I have some sturdy perspectives about those who protest the protection rigidity. actual, i will't see why it really is incorrect for protection rigidity recruiters to envision with scholars, extremely thsoe which have an pastime in serving this u . s . a .. in case you do not decide on to hitch you do not ought to ascertain with them. it really is unhappy that each and each body is prepared to flow thus far to resign others from serving their u . s . a .. quite a number of it really is by using lack of concepts, or incorrect information from the media. You watch television and picture it truly is all there is to it. quite a number of scholars on my college campus antagonistic the conflict or perhaps having protection rigidity scholars - now to not indicate recruiters on campus! They were attempting to invoke their will on others. And once you stopped to ask them why they sense the way they do - why they're so vehemently antagonistic, all they ought to say is "I do purely." So no, on account that recruiters from all different fields are allowed on college campuses, it ought to not less than be discrimination antagonistic to protection rigidity recruiters to limit them.

Yes. After four years of college and now having the ability to vote you should be able to decide for yourself where you want to go in life. The Armed forces isn't all bad, just parts. If it can help you in your long term goals why shouldn't you have the capability to include it in your evaluation. If you graduate with a degree, lets give you the credit to make your own decisions.

I agree with regard to college...but I'm not so sure about high school. I think the students should have to be 18 before they get pressure to join up.

That's a very good point. The way I see it, these protestors are excercising their freedom to voice out against others' freedoms. Sounds rather hypocritical if you ask me.
