And you must also know that we could go back and forth with that forever as soon as I say that American culture is collapsing under its own yahooistic, chest-beating "I-dun-need-no-intelekshhooal" worthlessness.

Put simply: America will be no better than Russia in a few years and Europe will be a solid mass of states dedicated to making my life even more opulent while you rot in the gutter.

They're allowed to approach you directly?

not sure what you mean exactly, if you make eye contact with them they'll start there sales pitch, but if they wen't chaiseing after anybody who wen't be they wouldn't get a whole lot done (it's three people sitting at a table with a bunch of pamflets and papers and pencils and key chains and crap), generaly they just sit there talking to each other. today was a busy day for the recruitment booths, there were about seven of them set up around the cafeteria, and there were two military booths (this is fairly unusual) one was marines the other was, army, I think... the rest of them were schools and job offers.

now, when I say booth, maybe I'm drawing the wrong picture, its a 2X8 foot table maybe with a cloth over top/front of it with a logo or something on the front of it with one to four people sitting behind it. no one has ever been a problem, though there was once a christian group that had one, and it got anoying haveing to say no to them every time I walked by and they offered a bible.

[Bobboau]

And this is a problem why?

[Rictor]

I always feel guilty and take their Bible/pamphlet/revolutionary new window cleaning product.

For some reason, you can guilt-trip me into listeniing to you if you only sound desperate enough. Telemarketers and homeless people needless to say love this.

[Kosh]

All this is, is an attack on the military.

That is one of the biggest loads of crap I have ever heard from you. The military descriminates against people for WHAT they are, and many people have problems with that. Open your eyes, and free your mind.

Ah, yes.  Sometimes have both of those (when I was) at uni, usually they were only allowed out in the open on the first day of term and their only other opportunities were in an defined space for careers fair,etc.

What in the name of **** are you on about?  Or is this more rubbish being spouted on the basis that  because a particular continent doesn't share your particular little moral code (you presume....), it must be 'collapsing'?

I mean, the monumental idiocy of that statement is just astonishing.

aldo: your question about the basis of liberator's comment

Yes
