All these wars and altercations are making the Army even looser than before:
The Army last year again increased the number of its recruits who have prior criminal records by granting them special exceptions.
…
In the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 18 percent of recruits needed waivers for problems with the law – up from 15 percent the previous year, Maj. Gen. Thomas Bostick, commander of the U.S. Army Recruiting Command, told a Pentagon news conference. He said 87 percent of those were for misdemeanors such as joy riding or violating curfew.
Taking it up the butt, however, simply won’t be tolerated.

Kind of reminds me of Arlo Guthrie’s song “Alice’s Restaurant,” when the narrator starts chanting “I want to kill, kill, KILL…” and the Army psychiatrist replies, “You’re our boy.”
Then, of course, they worry he’s not moral enough to join the Army because he was once arrested for littering…

Good thing those law-abiding, intelligent, fluent Arabic speakers where kicked out of the Military for being Gay.
That’s far worse than being a CONVICTED FELON!

Has every single aspect of common sense and decency in America finally gone completely out the window?
