San Francisco recruits; Blue Angels over the Bay

Each September the City of San Francisco submits its request for a Blue Angels Air Show recruiting drive, which the Defense Department confirms each December, as it has every year since then Mayor Dianne Feinstein requested it in 1981, eight years after the end of the U.S. military draft, six years after the end of the Vietnam War, and three years after the assassination of Harvey Milk, in San Francisco.

@raultalbot7 : Thanks for the offer, but I'm abstinent.  You will soon be the minority, idjit. Now we know where you go to get your freak on.

Stop opposing things just for the sake of opposing them.

You are equally as polarizing as people on the far right.

It's a week dedicated to the United States Navy ( A bay area institution older than any of you are).

You wack jobs are ruining the bay area.

This place and the ideals that define us were created mostly by armed service families following ww2.

Show some damd respect and quit bitching and moaning all the time.

This is a celebration of our history not a recruiting drive cumahn!

Don't get too inflamed about your friends in San Francisco, because apparently the U.S. military is highly interested in recruiting them to defend your sorry butt.
