we.ve been over this before...and you know the answer

I know what you have claimed. But like oh so many of your claims you are very, very thin on supporting documentation. So come up with some statistics.

Here's one...not that it will make any difference to your prejudice known to many here for years now.


"Young people ''say, 'What can you offer me that somebody else can't?' '' says Maj. Gen. Evan Gaddis, commander of Army recruiting. It's a question recruiters never used to hear in the South, where a military base is rarely farther than a few hours' drive. Southerners boast a rich military tradition, and Army statistics show that young men here are three times more likely to consider military service than those in the Northeast and twice as likely as youth in the Midwest and West. Which is why the apathy in this town is so striking. ?

from here: (a cursory google "southerners enlist more")
