[Liberate California]

The city of San Francisco has now passed a ballot measure restricting students from learning all of their options. Where is the California student and lawyer that will challenge this ballot measure in court? How dare the city use the military's ban on gays and the War in Iraq, along with their hatred of President Bush, stop a young person from ending up on the streets?

November 17 & 18, join me at the San Francisco Recruiting Office to counter protest and perhaps move on to city hall and show our support of the recruiters.

Crud, I'll be out of town.

The only fortunate thing about the measures in SF seems to be that they're unenforceable. This one can't enforce anything, the gun ban won't survive the courts. So depressing these things passed though...

Moral weight of the City???? San FAGisco?????


Bwaaaaaahhhhhaaaahhhaaaa!

[CitizenUSA]

Wait a minute! Now I'm completely confused. Don't the leftists hate the war but support the troops?!?

Measure I, dubbed "College Not Combat," opposes the presence of military recruiters at public high schools and colleges. However, it would not ban the armed forces from seeking enlistees at city campuses, since that would put schools at risk of losing federal funding.

Am I just daft? What is the difference between 'the presence' and 'seeking enlistees'?

Instead, Proposition I encourages city officials and university administrators to exclude recruiters and create scholarships and training programs that would reduce the military's appeal to young adults.

Sedition? Treason?

It appears to me that the War on Terror needs to be fought right here within our own land, starting in San Franciscostan

And they claim they're so big on diversity. HA! They're the most intolerant bunch of idiots anywhere.

"... adding that the victory would help put pressure on the government to someday institute an actual ban on campus military recruiting."

I don't understand what the rationale is behind such a ban. What is its basis?

[Bird Jenkins]

The city of San Francisco is a regular liberal utopia. It's got the loudest gays, the most ornery bums, and the hairiest women in the west. Is it any surprise how they voted? They're a lost cause.

[DakotaRed]

Now hold on, everyone. No one should be upset or agitated over this ban on the Military Recruiters. After all, we are a Democratic Republic and a free and open election was held and the people have spoke. That free voice is necessary to our survival as a Democratic Republic.

Since the people have spoken loud and clear, our Military is honor bound to abide by the people's wishes and we are honor bound to support and uphold them too.

Therefore, effective immediately, all branches of our Armed Forces should declare the city of San Francisco as OFF LIMITS to any and all US Military personnel. Any ships tied up in San Francisco Bay should be moved elsewhere as should any Active Duty Military within the City. No Fleet Week either as this would be a recruiting tool.

Give the People's Republic of San Franciso what they desire, a Military Free zone. Let them fend for themselves, as they are so noted for.

Fascinating:

Instead, Proposition I encourages city officials and university administrators to exclude recruiters and create scholarships and training programs that would reduce the military's appeal to young adults.

Some years back the lib-Dems in the SF Bay Area opened their own new "colleges". One's south SF, another is in Santa Rosa. Exclusively "liberal" schools, generally, entered into via scholarships. I've been wondering for quite some time -- all those liberal "ed" inits, locally and statewide, and where the money is being funneled to.

On another topic.. lol...Read what liberal students say are the best colleges for liberals.
