When I was in Kuwait I answered some letters from kids that were critical of the war in Iraq. I used gentle language to persuade them that the conservative perspective is best. That's how I handled it.

God bless you. That's probably the best way to handle it, honestly. Many of these kids are sponges who absorb everything their teachers tell them. When they send a venomous letter to someone, it opens the door for a little extra-curricular teaching that may have a greater, long lasting impact than what some marxist with a teaching degree tried to indoctrinate them with.

Thank you for your service. I'd be interested to know how such letters came to be sent to you? I'm grateful you had the fortitude to handle them, and I hope all the military personnel who may be receiving such letters are as well-adjusted as you. How is this happening?? I'm so angry I could spit.
