As someone who has served in the military for 19 years now, allow me to say this plainly:

Just register and shut the hell up. There are plenty of people willing to serve their nation so that dickheads who don't want too, won't be forced too. So, there you have it. Thank you.

Opinions vary Gersty, but I say again, that there are plenty of those willing to defend our nation so that those who are too much of a wimp won't have too.

It's not that I'm totally against the system here but, how does not wanting to serve make you a dickhead or a wimp? Regards of how many other join, in a free country, like for example, america, you should be given the choise to join or not.
Military is serious business, you know that (I hope), it's not something you 'just do'.

As for enlisting women, there are plenty of position that don't require 'men skills', so I don't see why they should be excluded.

racist? you're the racist one! You think I'm Eminem, you're making an assumption that I'm white. You don't know whether I am white or black. You don't know me.

All I'm saying is that I want a choice, and my choice as an American, to whether I want to be drafted or not. And I'm not applying for that stupid draft.

Go ahead, hate me, IDC, report me, do what ever you want, because I'm not giving up, and I won't ever stand down to anyone.

I wonder .... who was it that GAVE you (freely mind you) that ability to choose anything? Hmmmmmmm ... could it have been the United States Armed Forces and those who have defended FREEDOM since before you were even an itch in your Daddy's pants?

Shut the frack up man, you make me sick. Communist. Get the hell out of my country!!

Gosh, I hate idiots. Especially idiots who have no freaking idea about why this nation is what it is today and those who have died so that peons like THAT can make those type of comments. Make me so mad I want to curse. I'm gonna need a drink.

I agree of Tconwell,and you remind me of Upham from Saving Private Ryan.

Am i not allowed to have an educated opinion on a topic without being called a communist or a traitor? i just posted this to have an educated debate with people, and now it has turned into an extreme hate against me. I guess I'm not allowed to have educated thoughts. And before you just turn around and call me an idiot, traitor, and/or communist, think to yourself. Think before you post another post. And instead of making a post calling me a communist, at least see my side, and talk to me rationally.

one, this is a bit old.
but...

Very nice TConwell!!!
that was amazing!
yeah you might not want to be drafted, but hey, deal with it or get the hell out.
problem fixed, no draft.
pretty much what TConwell said.
id pretty much repeat him with anything else, haha.

HERE'S A CHALLENGE: accept my opinion and leave me alone, i bet u can't do that

Youre free to your opinion, that was given to you. Its not a right YOU earned, it was given to you. Respect that. If you want your opinion respected you need to respect some of the truths that exist out there. Such as, just because youre an American, you DONT have that thing called entitelement. You arent entitled to anything you want. You are still a human. This country, in all the great things about it, they were earned for you. You didnt earn them. Respect what others do for you.

I am not a fan of being drafted. But if the time came, I would do what was nessicary. If I really felt like I needed to back out, I am the only male in my family and I have the option to play that card and get out. Yet, I think something inside of me would opt to give it a go. And heck, if you dont want to die on the front lines, when you get drafted, MAKE SOMETHING OF YOURSELF! Go after something specialized where you wont be a grunt.

But you do have the option to not join selective service, but then you cant vote. Its a fair tradeoff. You have NO say in the elections and as a result, you dont have to be drafted. So dont cry EVER at anything going on if you didnt vote. No vote = no complaining. But youll have yourself the option to not be drafted.


I think first and foremost, respect those that died for your freedoms. Respect what they did, why they did it. Respect that fact that it was earned FOR you, not BY you. Nothing you did earned that freedom. Infact, nothing you or I have done has earned anything we have in the way of freedoms. Understand it, respect it. Then, I may respect your will not to fight for the country. The least you can do is respect those things.

I wouldn't call anything you say educated until you gradate high school, after that, it's still a stretch.

The definition of accept is: "to consider or hold as true"

As far as having an educated opinion, I'll believe that when you are educated and actually offer something that has merit behind it.

Sorry man, but you're an idiot. Please re-read Real's first paragraph, and then re-re-read it again. You are a communist, and have no idea where your individual belief rights even come from. I bet you think the Boston Tea Party was actually a nice social gathering where tea was served -- don't you? Communist.

Its not unconstitutional because who is going to raise the kids during war time? The women have to stay home and do that because they are usually better at it then men.

wow, that is the first almost intelligent thing that you've said during your entire cc.com lifetime.

How is it almost intelligent, it either is or it isnt!

Jeez, did you get hit in the head and come to your senses?

Anyway, you're just too chicken s*it to go out and fight for your country, and you would rather stay home playing Xbox and not give one for the troops fighting for your freedom, and you're going to complain that you don't have all of the rights that others do, because you're too lazy to do what you need to do to earn those rights. Freedom does come with a price, it's not a free couch on the curb.
