Grey Power calls for compulsory military training

Grey Power has said:

What is our society coming to when an elderly gentleman, on a walker, is attacked leaving the RSA? This follows hot on the heels of other well-publicised and cowardly acts against elderly, and Grey Power is sick of it. It is about time that we demanded better.

Grey Power National President, Roy Reid is disgusted and says that anyone convicted of assaulting a superannuitant should automatically face a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 3 years.

So if Nigella hit Charles Saatchi first, she’d be in prison for three years?

Maybe if we bring back compulsory military training for youths we could have the ambulance at the top of the cliff. This country is under direct threat from within. We need a society with respect, for people and property, with discipline, pride and with skills and leadership qualities. We believe that military training can provide that and would prove much more cost effective than the inevitable prison sentences and many of the training schemes that are currently on offer. This would also provide a force of civilians who are trained in emergency situations that can be utilised if needed.

What could go wrong with training young thugs how to shoot and kill people!

Would never happen right!

UPDATE: I wonder if Grey Power have costed their policy. If you assume a cost of $50,000 per youth per year and say 50,000 youths doing it every year that is a $2,5 billion price tag. I’d be willing to consider CMT, if Grey Power agree to a 20% cut in the pension to pay for it!
