I hadn't noticed that myself, but I actually avoid the ads completely. That is because it is an ad therefore it has no value to me so I don't waste my time.

I think if I were going to go the military route I would have to go with Black Water because they get the big cash.

Of course I wouldn't consider any kind of participation in any organization that promotes pain and disruption in the lives of my fellow man if it could in any way be avoided.

yeah i agree i was just pointing out that the adds were all over the site

Those and the "U.S. Green Card Government Program, Your country is eligible" & "Cuban Study Group" adds. Wtf over?

We are building a fence to keep out illegals, but have no issue welcoming "legal" foreigners....


Oh wait, it's the "Governemnt", should have known.

yeah i hear that they lie to us for the "greater good"

yes i also saw them, but i guess their money is just as green as everyone else's who wants to advertise on this free site.

Mmmhmm. Well, if it helps the site sustain itself money wise and is not bothering with our posting rights, then it's alright.

^Agreed. Besides, I don't bother looking at those things anyway. Well, except for when they slow down my browser and they are the only thing on the page. I'm just wondering how many people here click on some of those ads (not just gov't) out of morbid curiosity.

it just shows that the government thinks that ATS-readers are a good target group. take it as a compliment.
