I agree. The root servers should have no filtering in place to block any
demographics (unless of course a given node is DoSing them).
The last time I tried to contact a .mil to report an open relay that was
being abused, I was accused of being a spammer that had "hacked" their
server. Since that time I reject .mil mail.
