wouldn't it be cool if the staircase had gay paraphernalia on it every day?

The military recruited on campus the other day so NYU unfurled rainbow flags in strategic locations. The protest irritated me in a vague way, as if in addition to being futile NYU was missing a point. But what point?

This one, as articulated by the Berkeley town council:

"Military recruiters are salespeople known to lie to and seduce minors and young adults into contracting themselves into military service with false promises regarding jobs, job training, education and other benefits."

Hey, why didn't we think of that?
