Yes, we should force people into the military
that's a really good idea, lets have an armed forces full of people who we couldn't educate properly.

Sorry, that's the ludicrous guardianista in me picking holes in that idea. Clearly it's a bullet proof plan.

The whole thing is a mess
even those bits that are good ideas and discussed by actual experts are so clearly motivated by an agenda

We need more well trained, heavily armed idiots.

Thing is, the military could turn them into respectful, hardworking people who will at least attempt to contribute to society

So why aren't all kids in the military, if they are so much better than teachers at educating?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Thu 25 Aug 2011, 21:01, Reply)

Because most children have been taught enough sense not to smash a bus shelter/ skull.

How many children smash skulls out of interest?

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Thu 25 Aug 2011, 21:17, Reply)

Yes, of course it will
that's what the military excels at. It turns illiterate uneducated people into major contributers to society.

Do you know how much higher the pregnancy rates are in garrison towns?

Soldiers are not particularly responsible people.

We CAN educate everyone properly, the vast majority of the "uneducated" seem in fact to be the willfully ignorant.

You're so wonderful
I can't wait until you actually meet some of these "willfully ignorant" people and tell them that.

I've met loads, for god sake a lot of the people in Wolverhampton fit into this category.
I have nothing against unintelligent people, I have a thing against unpleasant irresponsible people who rely on other decent people to clean up their shit then try ruin their lives. Rich or poor, toff or scally.
But there is very much a correlation between these people and thickos.

No, too much risk of teaching in a sink school.
