[quote:Anonymous Coward 84240231:MV81MjM4NjkzXzk2NDg2NTk1XzY0RDQ3M0ZD] [quote:omegaman007:MV81MjM4NjkzXzk2NDgzMjgyX0QxM0EzMUE5] It is in the Constitution of the United States. And once congress re-issues the draft you go and kill or be killed. It has been the history of this country, right or wrong, it is the law of the land. Kind of like paying income tax......you serfs just do as you are told. [/quote] You can be a "Conscientious Objector", but here in America they could still draft you and make you a medic on the front lines. Make you put your money where your mouth was IOW. Or you could do what almost everyone I knew did during Vietnam, which was become a perpetual student, getting a deferment. Looking back, and considering the WASTE that that war was, I think we did the right thing. I feel sorry for the guys, including my best friend, who died though. He actually bought into the BULLSHIT, and actually WANTED to kill "the Cong" as he put it. Stepped on a landmine, and gone. [/quote]
Original Message
It doesn't make sense.
How can you force a person to kill people.
What if you tell them that you will commit suicide or kill your own people/soldiers if they hand you a gun?
