I'd rather serve with the type of female mindset that volunteers for the military, than draft some of those myspace gotti and emo guys...
fuck that shit! I'm not saying you couldn't mold those dudes into something acceptable, but many guys today are just whiney, coddled twats and I wouldn't want to have to. all voluntary is the only way... |

I would support this. People will gain an understanding and hopefully appreciation of our military.

QUOTE (M1N10N @ Jun 6 2006, 12:32 PM) That reminds me ... would they draft known gays? Based on what I've seen about the military's policy on gays, it's notoriously flexible when the military really needs people. QUOTE The degree of official and unofficial attempts to separate homosexuals from the armed forces seems to be directly related to the personnel needs of the armed forces. Hence, during wartime, it has not been uncommon for the rules regarding homosexuality to be relaxed, and up until 1981 it was the policy of all branches of the armed forces to retain a homosexual, at their discretion, thus promoting the "queen for a day" rule. This especially became the case during the Vietnam War, where some heterosexuals would fake homosexuality in an attempt to avoid being drafted or to be discharged rather than be shipped to Vietnam. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_ask_don%27t_tell -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

I think people would be more likely to harbor resentment towards an oppressive force that took away several years of freedom... and I know I wouldn't want to be in a shit sandwich with a dude who's like "man fuck the marines for putting me here!" no thanks... |

they should make two branches of each branch of the military
one volunteer and one drafted, then we can send in the drafted guys first |
