Without
1. The Urban Terrorists (the gangbangers)
2. The Rural Terrorists (the White Supremacists)
3. Outright criminals
4. HUGE signing bonuses
5. The backdoor draft..

Do you REALIZE where our Armed Forces would be right now? How pitiful we would look? What kind of SERIOUS trouble we’re in because of the huge numbers of soldiers that have been so injured that they can’t go back into service? And what seeing those folks has done to others that will NOT sign up again?

We’re in trouble.
