University Professors Compare Military Recruiters to Sexual Predators
Big Hollywood ^ | December 8, 2010 | Greg Gutfield

Posted on 12/08/2010 8:50:54 PM PST by La Lydia

So according to professors at the University of Washington’s Department of Global Health, military recruiters are no different than sexual predators in their “grooming” behavior of students...researcher Amy Hagopian, has since walked back this claim – saying she wasn’t comparing recruiters to sexual predators, just predators. Which begs the question: what kind of predators, then?... Anyway, to back up her insidious claim, Amy offers examples of predatory “grooming” behaviors of recruiters. On Dori Monson’s show, the prof says recruiters are encouraged to get involved during field trips and scorekeeping – which is what pedophiles might do.

But let me also point out, it’s also what parents do too. And uncles like me. Yep, you could say that the same behaviors you find among sexual predators (inserting themselves into recreational events) are no different than a family’s. Amy left that out, for it would have ruined her atrocious exercise in moral relativism. If everyone acts that way, then the “science” falls apart...

Fact is, this fake study would be hilarious if it wasn’t for the subject matter. Not only is she smearing the men and women who sacrifice their time, efforts and lives to defend our country – she’s also diminishing the true danger of sexual predation. “It’s all the same,” she’s says – and the repellent American Journal of Public Health agreed enough to publish this drivel.

But no surprise there – you don’t need to do real science, as long as your biases are in the right place.

Okay. Let’s use the newpaper articles we’ve all been reading over the past five years. Who are the REAL “sexual predators” here? Military recruiters or “professors”?

“military recruiters are no different than sexual predators”

This is a gay joke right?

Unbelievable. The recruiter showed me what the military had to offer. No one forced me to sign.

Sorry, I will never again pick up a rifle to defend a country filled with air-breathers like this.

I'll bet, percentage wise, there are more sexual predators in academia then there are in the active duty military.

Sounds like she is projecting. The pied pipers are in the academy, turning young skulls full of mush into mushy liberals.

Any recruiter, no matter what field, grooms a prospective employee. To think someone is being paid for such deep thinking and on our dime. Scary beyond words.

I, among many others, thank you for your service to this country we love.

I understand your frustration. Many of us are similarly exasperated. We didn’t think we could go downhill so quickly.

You are not alone; I will do what I can until the Lord takes me home. God Bless you.

From her pictures, she would have to do an awful lot of “grooming.”

Just saw this Amy Hagopian ~ you can tell she'd love it if recruiters were sexual predators 'cause she'd be down there at the recruiting office sitting on the desk of the nearest recruiter, dress hiked, britches around her ankles.

This ol'gal looks DESPERATE!

"University Professors Compare Military Recruiters to Sexual Predators"

She means IF DADT is successfully repealed...then it might become true.

On the other hand - after viewing her picture - she has absolutely NOTHING to worry about in that regard.

COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES - turning out liberal progressives by the paid busload.
