Lawmakers, Veteran Groups Debate JROTC Program in San Francisco

The fight to keep Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps programs in San Francisco's high schools is far from over, despite a last-minute push by veterans groups across the country. And who ultimately wins the battle could determine the future of the program in many cities throughout the U.S.

*snip*

The kerfuffle by the bay began two years ago, when San Francisco's school board voted to phase out JROTC progams by the end of the 2007-08 school year, citing recruitment concerns and the military's policy toward gays.

The program was extended for another year, but last June, under threats of a lawsuit for not enforcing tougher state education standards, the school board voted to stop granting gym credits to JROTC students and to offer JROTC as an elective course only.

*snip*

"Regardless of how you feel about JROTC, it is unprecedented for the state to mandate that an individual district offer an elective, non-critical program for a small number of students," he said. This is about respecting the rights of local elected school boards to make their own decisions."

Hal Muskat, an Army veteran who refused to serve in Vietnam, said he doesn't want his tax dollars going to what he calls "military training" for high school students.

Any takers on a bet that this same a$$hat would support all sorts of "diversity" classes?

MSB: Okay, Mr Hajji, where are they going to plant the bomb?

HAJJI: I will never tell you, infidel rabbit!

MSB: Schadie, bring me the garden hose.

HAJJI: Ai-e-e-e! San Francisco, it will be San Francisco!

MSB: *blinks*

*pause*

This conversation never happened.

*walks out*
