frick no. We want only the BEST people in our military, not some criminal rejects. If you put criminals in the military, they will do what criminals do -- commit crimes: rape, war atrocities, molesting children, stealing from their fellow Soldiers, raping the deployed Soldiers' wives. No way.


I get where you're coming from, I really do but two of the best people I served with were former gang members, one was a skinhead from California and the other was a black baw from Chicago and a gangster disciple. Have you served a day in your life? Because if you had you would know theft is rampart in every military branch. People steal gear and anything they can get their hands on, everyone steals. Raping the deployed soldiers wives?! Bro Jody takes care of everyone's wife during deployments. The military is/always will be a great option for troubled young men, I say this now because I was once one of the dumb arse 18 year olds who should probably be in the prison rite now but the Marine Corps changed my life in 2010. The military isn't for everybody and frick the guys in the attack video but what you're saying is pure ignorance.

Covenant House definitely does good work, but I question why they need to be located right next to the FQ.

Define rampant. I didn't find it to be any worse than civilian settings and in some cases, better. For example, I've never known anyone who had their car broken into on post.

If the Marines want to set up a program like you want, go for it.

I would advise the Army to stay FAR AWAY from the idea of bringing juvenile delinquents on post for job training and rehabilitation. That's not the Army's mission. That's never been the Army's mission.

The Army doesn't have any place for people of questionable character. The Army doesn't even TRY to "re-hab" or "save" any basic trainee. If the Trainee is not motivated enough to complete basic training, the individual is discharged with an Uncharacterized classification. All the individual has to do is say, "I want out."

So the idea of sending juvenile delinquents into the custody of Active Duty NCOs on Active Duty military installations and then forcing the juveniles to stay there even if they want to quit is something that the Army simply no longer does.

Even qualified basic training recruits with stellar civilian records need only ask to be discharged for it to happen. The Army doesn't try to keep unwilling people in at all -- it is not worth the trouble AND they probably will be terrible at any job that the Army could offer them.

And as for all of the crimes that they would commit, trust me, they would. I know from experience these kinds of crimes would happen to our military families on post. I would not want to be a Commander tasked to explain to some grieving spouse why some juvenile delinquent Re-hab soldier/trainee was on post and had a chance to rape their child.
