This a student video, made by a teenager. Why don't you lay off? And learn how to spell.

This video is awesome and really captures the spirit of the walkout against the war(s) and military recruitment, which drew nearly 1000 high school students from across the Twin Cities. So much for the apathetic youth ... Great job and keep up the good work!

Ashley did a great job making this video. This video should be seen in every high school in the Twin Cities on how the military recruiters lie to the young people all over America.

what about the students that want recruiters in the schools? Why wouldn't military stuff be in a career center? It's not like the military is telling business to stay out of career centers. No one is forced to join. If you're afraid of information then you have a whole different set of problems in your life then weather our not recruiters sit in your lunch room.

Thanks for the positive comments! It makes me feel good reading them!

Gerry, my dad thinks that this documentary was needed and he has been in the military, so don't say we're misinformed and ignorant of the military. There are many lies going on, so how can we know for sure what's the truth, huh?

Thanks T for telling Gerry off!

These aren't "Heros", they are protesters who would do great harm to thier community by thier actions. These people are misinformed and ignorant of the military. But its thier right to protest.
