Note - this is just step 1 in a move to eliminate JROTC in all of California, using the courts, its just that in SF they had an easy first victory.

"Ethnic studies program" my a**.

Whats needed is a powerful national reaction. This needs to be an election issue. The narrative is ideal - patriotic immigrant kids (JROTC is very popular with Asian kids) oppressed by an out-of-control Obama-loving liberal establishment.

As long as my son has enough advance warning, if the terrorists are going to hit us again, let it be San Francisco.

I keep trying to remind myself...the reason why we haven’t surrounded San Francisco and Berkeley with 20 FT tall razor wire fencing and re-designated it as ‘hostile enemy territory’ is what, exactly?

I feel sorry for the great kids who won’t be exposed to this tremendous opportunity as a result of all this.

No big deal.

Almost all of SF’s high school students are illegal aliens who can't qualify as officers anyway.

Damn the lib a**es in SF! My brother-in-law was a leader in JROTC at Lowell High in SF, graduated with honors. JROTC is extremely popular with kids in San Francisco, and they work very hard in their activities. All physically fit, and they score high academically. Isn’t that supposed to be the objective? The libs want fat stupid sheep!

That is not true, you halfwit.

SF’s best students are LEGAL Asian immigrants, and they are just plain brilliant and patriotic citizens. Much smarter than you are, and of much finer character, for certain.

what saddens me is that these policies are doomed to failure, as liberal policies always are, but the time frame to set things straight is on the order of generations. We can only sit numbly by and watch, like a slow motion train wreck. After it’s over, we’ll have to go in and pick up the pieces. So sad...

...the precedent(s) of Sodom and Gomorrah??? And besides, electric fences like you'd keep in your yard to train your dog are more entertaining anyway.

Well, thank you very much for your helpful attitude, but I happen to live here, along with many hundreds of thousands who don’t deserve your contempt.

Why razor wire? Surround it with an army and take it back! Give the wackos and seditionists five days to to leave the country and then sterilize the streets with Clorox.

buwaya,

USA military officers MUST be USA citizens.

IQ has zero to do with that.

SF advertises itself globally as a “Sanctuary City,” so you have NO idea how many students are legal and how many are not legal.

Worse than that, its just oppression for its own sake, because they can and it makes them feel good. They steamrollered this through over the objections of the kids and their parents, just to make a political point. Thats lower than, well, what ? Its just plain slimy.

If I was a congressman I would immediately call for the elimination of all Federal funding to California's education System. They want to pick a cause to make a stand then let them face consequences of their arrogance.

HELP US !

You have to help yourselves first. Start the ball rolling and conservatives will be right there with you. Protest...Boycott...start an ROTC program after school or on weekends. Whatever you can do.
