Just like Viet Nam, minorities dying disproportionately

[Maq]

six of the last seven women to die in Iraq have been MINORITIES.

1. And apparantly these women are dying suspiciously...

Any women in the military needs to be thinking about a career change if they get back home safely. Their lives are not worth this bullshit.

2. Actually, minorities are not dying disproportionately in this war.

The infantry is the whitest part of the army.

The demographics for women are different.

4. Topic deals with Women not the white infantry

The suicide statistics are out of wack for women in the war zone too.
The women minority numbers are disproportionate versus the white women numbers of America too.
Matter of fact, if you wish, you can even compare these deaths with the number of chinese women in China.

Shifting the number baseline only adds to the confusion.

3. & the news IS?!1 n/t

[Maq]

5. this may explain why the Bush twins are not in the numbers

"& the news IS?!1 n/t" They are white.

Is this what you wanted to hear?

6. Scary, but true!

As was Viet Nam. The military is now promising our working class, black or white, that their kids have a promising future if they join the U.S. Armed Forces. Bullshit!
