Politically correct nonsense doesn't count when the bullets start flying.

The military is currently all-volunteer. If there are "too many" white males, the obvious reason is because white males volunteer proportionately more than other races and women.

If we can mandate voter registration at the local Department of Motor Vehicles (making it a whole lot easier for illegals to vote), why not mandate military recruiters at every high school graduation in Compton, Stockton, and Detroit? With recruitment brochures in 26 languages, of course. Why not set up recruitment offices within welfare offices and in unemployment offices?

#3  I agree with what Col. West has to say: I'm guessing that this third generation Army veteran of African-American descent will tell you (in colorful language) that the Army needs more warriors of whatever color.

I would think Col. West might also say that much of the PC that pervades our society today is non-sense. He seems to me a no nonsense kind of person. The idea that the military ought to be patterned after universities today would be a mistake.

#2  Funny how the same folks that spewed nonsense about Black men being put into combat positions (even when such news was Vietnam era data and not true for the modern Army) are shocked to find that Black men may not think the military is their best option.

Funny how folks simply can't imagine the end results of their own policies and propoganda.

#1  I think most folks are more than fed of with this politically correct nonsense. It has gotten to the point of handicapping us in everything we do.
