#1 Here is the text of my email to that idiot:
Reggie,
I never liked Denver Broncos but you have given me even more reason to hate them. Clearly you no NOTHING about military service and even less about those who serve. When you enter military service you sign a contract (kind of like a Football contract). Well these people agree to play for the Military for four years active duty with an option of two more in what's called ready reserve. So when there option is picked up by the military for another say six months it's not illegal, slavery, or given the current situation not surprising. FYI the Navy has ALWAYS done this with personnel that were deployed on ships when their tour ended. Your buddy Chalmers Johnson (Left-Wing Liberal LOON) should know this too since he served in the Navy. Also the claim that claims everyone joins the military is some undereducated poor Black, Hispanic, etc, is a bunch of Bravo Sierra. I was in the Air Force for 20 years as part of the all-volunteer service and 80% of those who serve are not there because they had no choices back home. I was atypical of those who served: High School graduate, adventurous, wanting to see the world, and yes I liked to play with high-tech gadgets.

#3 And the idiot responds:
Thanks for the message. Up to now, I've tried to respond to every message I receive, but with hundreds of e-mails flooding in each day, I simply can't keep pace.

Although I don't have time to respond specifically, please know that I have read your message, and I do appreciate your taking the time.

Best regards,
Reggie

Care to guess what percentage are of the negative variety?
