RE: Selective service: I thought it crashed when my lottery - BH O'bonga MU - 1/10 09:40:48

Draft would be the best thing for this company 2 way - raskolnikov MU - 1/10 09:35:09

Upper and middle class sons and daughters serve today, Rask - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:15:50

what does "top 40 percent of the income distribution" mean? - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:18:52

Middle class, dipstick. It means middle class - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:21:33

ok, I just wanted to make sure - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:22:54

“Upper and middle class sons and daughters serve today” - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:34:14

no, but rask did - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:39:03

Ok... but i don’t think he actually said that..... - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:48:26

you're right - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:57:24

you're an idiot (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:41:33

what if someone doesn’t want to? - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:40:25

Of course, mon ami(nm) - raskolnikov MU - 1/10 09:43:39

why do you always dodge instead of discuss? - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:45:38

YES Dipsht, the state has the power of the state - raskolnikov MU - 1/10 10:06:54

And if you are anti-war, how can you support a draft??? (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 10:18:12

Again, why do YOU wish to use guns against people? - pickle MU

- 1/10 10:12:21

executive summary of this post - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:08:45

With typical government efficiency (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:21:05

I laugh at all this draft paranoia - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 09:09:34

I don't laugh. Young Americans are right to fear a new draft - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:23:10

Well, they might as well also fret about an asteroid hitting - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 09:35:22

Yeah, the probabilities of all these events are equivalent(nm) - DC Jayhawk KU - 1/10 10:14:28

They may not be equivalent - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:15:40

so why are 18-year olds forced to register? (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:46:17

so eliminate the draft? (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:37:23

Eliminate or don't eliminate - not my point - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 09:54:29

what is the Christian view? (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:58:36

if there's no likelihood of a draft, then why have one? - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:56:17

Good grief ash - I never said there was no likelihood - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:05:09

and my point was that it's a good thing it heightened fear - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:07:46

That's fine - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:09:46

I'm not asking you to defend any point - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:11:25

When you ask me "so, eliminate the draft" - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:14:01

you provided an opportunity to discuss it - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:17:13

OK - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:18:32

why not? - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:19:23

In the event we need a draft - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:30:12

Conscription is slavery - ashtray UF - 1/10 10:42:24

OK(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 10:49:53

it's important for citizens to register with govt (nm) - SwampTiger MU - 1/10 09:43:12

that’s a strange reaction - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:10:36

How is it an R v D issue? - Sal MU

- 1/10 09:14:57

i didn’t say it was an R v D issue (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:23:53

Hmm, guess I misread this line then - Sal MU

- 1/10 09:34:58

RE: Hmm, guess I misread this line then - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:36:22

Did he really take my comment in that direction? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 1/10 09:17:58

Young people don't want to do a lot of things - Mormad MU - 1/10 09:06:21

lol...if we had a draft, about 4% could make - Mizzou Lou KC - 1/10 09:15:00

That sounded like an envious old person statement.(nm) - Toger STL - 1/10 09:10:37

If you heard envy, you might want try shaving the - Mizzou Lou KC - 1/10 09:20:06

hell yes(nm) - cnk ATL - 1/10 09:08:33

All things morally better than killing people(nm) - El-ahrairah BAMA - 1/10 09:07:07

It's just nature, man - Mizzou Lou KC - 1/10 09:17:52

it isn’t “just nature” (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:25:25

If man is part of nature, and man commits murder, murder - Mizzou Lou KC - 1/10 09:36:23

that’s tortured logic (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:40:54

It's actually quite simple. Just the way you like it. - Mizzou Lou KC - 1/10 09:43:26

that would be a great defense for a murder trial (nm) - ashtray UF - 1/10 09:24:22

There was never a threat of a draft (nm) - Sal MU

- 1/10 09:02:24

of course there is (nm) - pickle MU

- 1/10 09:10:50

Theres always a threat. Why else make u sign up?(nm) - El-ahrairah BAMA - 1/10 09:05:52
