JROTC Banned from San Francisco

The City Council of San Francisco has now begun a one-year phasing out of Junior ROTC from its high schools, despite the objections of the students who participate in JROTC activities. San Francisco is the most tolerant city in America, as we have long known, and a safe haven for all gender deviants of every kind. The city council has cited the "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy of the Armed Forces, adopted by the Clinton Administration, as the reason for this ban of JROTC. The JROTC programs enforce no such policy, however, and do not have any policy on homosexuals. I suppose the surprise in this story is that JROTC was allowed to persist until now in San Francisco. The council members of San Francisco also want their children to earn less money if they enlist in the Armed Forces. A JROTC cadet with two or four years of experience can enlist in the Army at the E-2 or E-3 pay grade instead of E-1. San Francisco, the land of Leftist tolerance proves what that tolerance consists of: they tolerate only people who are Liberal like them.
The council members say that they want their children learning about peace rather than war. In their world view, I, as a war veteran, am morally equal to Osama bin Laden. Both of us are practitioners of war. There are no good guys, bad guys, heroes, villains, just causes or depraved causes. Of course, accusing the Army of being all conservatives while banning liberals from doing JROTC is one of the best self-fulfilling prophecies they could devise.
