They're right, there shouldn't be recruiters in school that's predatory as shit.
Do they do that in the UK? I didn't think they were quite so gung-ho about their military.
I didn't know people still used that racist phrase.
I didn't know gung ho was a racist term and now I look it up I see that it is clearly not.
I'm not sure who your authority is that determines the offense of words, but I have friends from China that take great offense to the term.
The military shouldn't be allowed to actively recruit anyone regardless of their age. It's inherently predatory to everyone in this society.
