    Military getting desperate for more cannon-fodder.

    Lets get the criminals on board the program and give them military training and access to weapons.

    Thats a great example of left leaning press adjusting the stories to change its context. I am sure the military did not give a press release saying "we are going to now think about hiring people that bring weapons to schools". Thats just stupid, silly, and unwarranted. I bet with some searching, one could find the actual press release from the pentagon itself. It probably just stated that they are reviewing there policies on recruiting recruits with petty misdemeanors as juveniles and viewable tattoos while clothed. This most likely will be focused on a history of smoking pot, minor assault charges, and other petty mistakes some kids make as juveniles. I am sure it would also fall under the board of approvals that deal with waivers on a case by case basis also. I am not saying the right is always right, but this is a good example of how the left press bends stories until it changes to make right always wrong in there eyes.
