We All want the most for our children. The future of the United states lies with our children if we continue at the Pace we Are going now and done to Start teaching them better the United states will continue to lose its status As the world Power.

A senior airman Shannon a Shepard ecu Briecke German cheap propaganda this is my third and last letter to you regarding your policy for the yugoslav crisis generally and the a a macedonian Issue in articular. The stars and stripes of feb 7,1993, articles on the subject especially the one on Page 17 signed by an obviously greek name Nave convinced me that the Lack of objective Ness in your cheap propaganda is not coincidence. A your Effort to manipulate your new administrations policy is More than Clear to anyone with Basic knowledge of Caistor ical truth. You can consider yourselves the is As for stars and stripes too of your image Nav a new order  you can consider us stupid. You can spit on us. You will realize that All you do is spit on your face. A cmdr. A Gortzis. Naples Italy hypocritical practices this racism thing is getting out of hand. A very disturbing thing happened to a Friend of mine which made me decide to write about my views a couple of weeks ago my Friend accidentally walked in on a National association for the advancement of coloured people meeting at the recreation Center. Everyone in the room just stared at him my guess is because he a White. I know this was an isolated Case but Many of the atrocities going on today Are recurring. Here Are a few that i think Are unfair and should be outlawed a scholarships for Only Blacks hispanics women asians Etc. A in be never seen one for just Whites or men. A quotas that require employers to hire and colleges to enrol a certain percentage of minorities women or minority women. A All Black colleges a if someone tried to open an ail White College the a act would hit the ceiling and the world would riot until doomsday. I myself am a female Eskimo my husband is Black and our two children Are Black eskimos. We Are about As a minority Quot As a family can be but still we Are sickened by minorities reserving clubs colleges scholarships Etc., for Only their race or gender. Even though in a Eskimo i would love to try opening an All White College or Start a White male Only scholarship fund so these people will understand How it hurts. Then Mayoe they will Stop these hypocritical practices shutting out the White males is not the answer to today a problems. Two right. Wrongs never did make a right. Anyone can go to College and succeed via scholarships Federal Grants student Loans and i Bills i grew up on welfare and got Dos in High school. Thanks to the Pell Grant to a senior in College majoring in accounting. In be never used my race or gender to acquire anything and i never will because it would be cheating.

A total breakdown when president Harry Truman signed the executive order in i948 integrating Blacks into the military he knew people done to choose their skin color they re bom with it. Am 1 the Only one who believes that lifting the ban on Gays in the military will Mark the beginning of a total breakdown of All the reasons Why i chose to remain in the military for the last 11 years a staff sgt. Guy a. Navarro or. Iraklion air station Crete a coping with humor i am writing in regard to the people who were complaining about Charles Kaufman s . Comic strip. They seemed to believe that since they thought it was rude it should not exist. It is this sort of opinion that creates much of the censorship that occurs in the United states. It is simply ridiculous for a single person to believe that their taste is better than everyone cd see a enough so to dictate what others can read or hear. In addition it saddens me to witness such humor impairment. Its a comic strip not a political statement. The people who wrote the two letters that i read obviously cannot Deal with simple humor and feel they have to  they can act by doing this make the personal Choice not to read he strip. A Elizabeth Millican Fulda Germany done to need sissies in response to Quot a telling Bible verse March 2the a heinous crime the writer refers to in 1 Kings 16 11 is no crime at All. The scriptures describe King Zimri killing his male enemies from the House of Baas a. There is no Law in the Bible against manhood. These men were destroyed for being Zimrin a enemies. They were also guilty of Many other sins including a provoking the lord god to anger with their  since the writer tries to defend homosexuals allow me to Point that there is a Law against sexual perversion. Obviously the writer pretends to be offended and counts on the sensitivities of readers in regard to the bibles terminology in verse 11, thin skinned sissies Are exactly what we done to need in the . Military. The Bible does not produce that kind of person. I have always appreciated Plain talk especially in religious contexts. Refined san stars in their own eyes types would sterilize the scriptures by rewriting them in inoffensive language.
