What's Up With Grandma?

By Michael John McCrae
July 28, 2005

Remember this:

“OHIO: Katherine Woodworth, 91 “clobbered a [20-year-old] would-be thief with her purse until he ran away.” “Sgt Tim Hanus said women of Woodworth’s age should not try to fight attackers.” (http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/july/article011.html)

Katherine and this lady could be kinfolk: CALIFORNIA: “Woman, 73, battles thief”. “A bag of books and a swift kick helped a 73-year-old woman save her little dog. Police say the woman fought off a man who tried to steal her [dog] by beating him with a bag of books and kicking him in the groin.”

Then there is 81-year-old, Fola Coats of Magnolia, Arizona, who received a letter from the Department of the Navy Reserve. The letter was an invitation for her to enlist in the Seabees. She had a husband and two sons who were military veterans. Fola took it all in stride saying: “I guess they figured we were a great military family.”

And what of this FOXNEWS.com report of 22 July 2005: “Raging Grannies” Want to Enlist in Army” (AP)?

Five members of a group calling itself the “Tucson Raging Grannies” went to a local recruiting office asking: “to be sent to Iraq so our kids and grandchildren can be sent home.”

The recruiters did not quite handle this situation well. Instead of singing up the grandmothers they called the police and had the Grannies arrested for trespass.

Along with all these reports comes another concerning raising the enlistment age for recruitment to 42 to forestall the shortages in current recruitment levels.

As feisty as these Grannies are; I say SIGN’EM UP! Let them take the entrance examinations and give them their enlistment physicals. If they get through those requirements; send them on to Granny Basic Training and give them all a rifle. If they can pass Basic Rifle Marksmanship; pack them on a ship and send them in!

Why isn’t the National Organization of Women (NOW) fighting on behalf of all these Grannies for their equal chance to volunteer to kill America’s enemies?

Even if they can’t fire a rifle, they can clobber the radical, Islamic, murderous, scumbag, rat-puke terrorists with their bags of books! Then they can kick them all in the groin. They’ll never get any virgins that way!

Hell, sign them all up!

Sign up Grandma, Grandpa, Cousin Jethro, Frank the Undertaker, George the Barber, Abdullah the illegal Islamic immigrant, Jose, the illegal Hispanic, Wen Ho Lee, the illegal Vietnamese guy or gal. Sign up the gays and make sure you sign up that hypocritical Democrat Congressman, Charlie Rangel who keeps saying we should reactivate the Draft.

What the HEY! Give them all guns and let them go!
