for the life of me i cannot understand why people are against our soldiers. hat the war, hate the person who initiated the war, but they are are kids/brothers/husbands.

:yeahthat:

But I'll say it again: why did the Marines spend money to put a recruiting center there anyway?

Market research is your friend.

Market research means NOTHING to recruiting.

THe only market research is.. X% of teenagers will join the military...

SO for every X amount of people that 17 - 25 there will be a recruiter.

There are recruiters that are assigned to Philips Exeter and Phiilps Andover Academes and every other private and public high school in the country..

They have 200 seniors.. 20 of them (by their reasoning) should want to join the military.. assign a recruiter, and tell him/her to find those 10 kids to be Marines (10 left for the Army and everyone else) or we'll throw him out of the Corps!!

Hollywood, CAhas a recruiter assigned.. as does every high school in that area..

I'm going to support the Marines here.

HEY BERKELEY! Want to avoid Marine Recruiters!?

Don't go in the building, retards.



It's a free country, and the marines have every right in the world to put their recruitment center in a building they've paid for.

Actually they couldn't kick them out even if they wanted to because a recruiting station is a federal facility which overrides anything the state or local government may say. They can't even sue them, although they should shoot the idiots for even trying...:coffee:

Recruiters have been kicked out of places around the US.. sometimes they go voluntarily, other times they get evicted.

90% (74% of statisitics are made up) of recruiting stations are rental properties.. no different than a Dollar Store or a CiCi's pizza.

Landlord can just decide he doesn't want to rent to them anymore.. (which from a business perspective would be STUPID!!)

OK but...

The Marine official, speaking with FOX News on Friday, said Marine Commandant Gen. James Conway scoffed at the news, but there are no plans for to protest the City Council's decisions. There are definitely no plans to move the recruiting station either.

"To actually put something into law that encourages the disruption of a federal office is ridiculous. They are not going to kick a federal office out of its rightful place there, and this is not going to discourage those young patriots who want to be Marines," the official said.

Could be they built the place awhile back, before the 60s radicals that now pose as Socialists infested the area like cockroaches.
