We need a HEAVY counter recruitment effort for an enlistment BOYCOTT!

Really heavily campaign all kids to NOT sign up for the military now! Force the draft if it has to come to that! Then we'll have America WAKE UP and throw all of these bastards and their war profiteering sponsors out of office!

1. That's the smartest response I've read all day.

Good idea.

4. And for those already in the military, do the Corporal Klinger "thing"...

Except say that you are gay instead of a nuts transvestite. Perhaps if that "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" issues is challenged enough the military will have to face whether they want more bodies in the military or enforce that silly policy. If they choose the latter, then this effort could be that much more effective.

2. I don't know - this is probably best done on an individual basis

Rather than as an organized campaign.

3. I have a dear friend, a co-worker, who happens to be black. She was

telling me, not from the pulpit, but through the mothers of her Church, the "Sons and Daughters of the Church" should look to other alternatives to finance their college eds beside the military. This Church is very large and is investigating alternatives and ways to help their students get financial aid, who were previously going to go in the military.. I think it's a smart move...

5. The best way is to act interested, and take all their time & stuff.

Seriously. Sign your (with their OK) friends/classmates/kids up for all the free boonie hats and tee shirts they can get. Go to the offices and take all the handouts. Invite them to job fairs and mob their booths. They only have so much time and resources. Use them up!

6. It's clear the war(s) will only end when the troops refuse to fight

or the troops dry up. I've thought this for a while. I was thinking of an "Un-recruitment" campaign. Set up booths, out side recruitment centers. Organize to get and keep ALL recruiter's out of high schools and colleges. Tell all the kids that war kills and they won't see that money they're being promised.
