The Draft is coming,,.....

Thanks, but that does not preclude you from having an opinion.

 

I'd protest. I wouldn't worry about it either, they can't make me do anything because at the end of the day I still have my free will and if they do send me anywhere, I can just get kicked out.

Yep but I figured I'd give a non-already-been-in-the-army view on it.

 

different times..... different type of warfare

 

ol hippie..you were that last year of the draft also ..I take it

 

I really don't remember, but I may have been. I joined in 1973.

 

seeing that you're 54 now... my guess is yes . in that boat myself... be 55 in Aug. ?
I joined up in 74.. I was the old guy in basic

 

I'll be 55 in July.

 

i'm against the draft and wars.but with more personel you wouldn't have people haveing to do more than one overseas duty like it is now.for me one tour was enough no freaking would i do overseas again ,no freaking way.some people want to ,not me.but i'm against the draft and wars.they're no good.

 

Because the bill you posted has nothing to do with what you're speaking about.

You imply it does by posting an Alex Jones article, who draws connections between those things because they fit into his paranoid world view.

You're paranoid for believing in these things conceptually.

And you can't make up a logical cohesive reason for believing what you believe, so you justify it with an Alex Jones article in which an American Teen is wearing nazi garb.

You don't even deserve this much of an answer. It's trollish garbage, which would fit perfectly into the politics forum of this dump.

 

Not true read it

IT SAYS THAT THEY CAN USE THEM FOR WHAT EVER THEY WANTED,
AND THAT THEY WILL BE USED IS COMBAT ZONES

 

I was drafted, and I turned out very well.. I just can't find my pants anymore..

Peace

 

Would you go?
no

Would you object?
yes

Would you protest?
yes

Do you think it's a good idea?
no

 

I did read it. It was poorly written from an editorial standpoint.

From a common sense standpoint it was insane. The bill has nothing to do with what you imply. An Alex Jones (a holocaust denier, moon landing denier, and 9/11 conspiracy theorist) commentary article isn't proof.

Something isn't true because a crazy person says it. It's also not true simply by using caps lock.

 

stupid shit is stupid

it's providing free/cheap labor for companies who make a profit off it

nothing more sinister.

 

People of all walks of life have been making such claims since 9/11, even in Australia. Without fail they're always completely wrong.

 

I wonder what people were saying a few years before the last draft..
