With the way things are going, I suspect alot of people here will have children and even grandchildren spending much of their youth in the middle east.
|
funny that always the people who don't want to end up going and the people all up for it stay home

You think consciencous objector status is easy to get? They would just make you a litter carrier. |
in this war? no.. i would either leave the country, or goto jail... i was 1 signature away from becoming a US Marine back after i graduated, and then this whole war started and i said fuck that, i don't believe in this war, if it was something true, i would have no problem, i have a huge military background, i wouldn't mind dying for my country if it was for something other then our dumbass president being greedy and wanting to take over other countries...

Up until this post I used to think you may have some redeeming qualities. |
In the words of my father, retired Marine of 30 years, Bronze star, two purple hearts, heavily decorated veteran of both Korean and Vietnam war...
"Son, if you ever go into the military I will KICK YOUR ASS!" nothing like hearing it from a guy who has been there and back a few times... God rest his soul |
funny to see all these cowards running from serving their country. especially when a genocidal dictator is threatening to WIPE A FRIENDLY NATION OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH WITH NUCLEAR BOMBS.

i'll be the first muthafucka hoping the border. Fuck the military. There's no goddamn way you'd get me in the army/navy/air force/marines/etc alive
|
I did my four years in the Marine Corps. Now I'm a disabled veteran and not eligible for active service.
BUT...that said, if there was a mainland invasion of the US, I'd strap the gear on, load up and go hunting. My expatriate disappointment in the current political clime and corporate regime only goes so far. |

I don't think this shit is any laughing matter. Let's consider ourslefs lucky to be to old and wish it doesn't happen to the generations following us. |

Shit man 38?? I thought you were much younger! |
I finished my tour of duty working in battation operations for Pershing nuclear missiles. If they decide to use those in Iran..i'll re-enlist. This time as a 2 star though.
|
I did 3 active and 6 reserve. I served in the Cold War and the first Gulf War. Enough for me.
|
No need to draft me, I'm already in.
Haven't been overthere yet, though. Semper Fi. |

my brother tried to join the marines and he went to the interviews and all and they asked him why. he said he wanted to kill motherfuckers and they sent him home. not because of killing enemies. they thought he was a nutcase and could potentially shoot his officers or NCOs in the platoon. when i served they also discharged a few guys along the way because they liked killing too much. :2 cents: |

some of us are smart enough to determine out own fates and the consequences, no need to follow blindly, there is a big distinction between this war and a direct and imminent threat to the US, we understand some of the self-serving agendas behind this war
70%+ of the US doesnt think we should be in iraq, the administrations arguments are very week at this point 12clicks, "sucking at your mothers teat" for free? we all pay taxes man, i bet you were never in the service and it is a very honorable thing for prince harry to join the service, show by example, not many have the balls or discipline to do this |

so i give him a lil extra credit:thumbsup |
I can't be drafted...I'm too old and have too many physical and mental disabilities.
|
Could all the draft dodgers please goto mexico, or like at least to Quebec or something? I like BC just the way it is, I'd rather it not be over ran with americans. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh
|
I would NEVER want to go but i dont want to be banished from the US heh..
|
did 12+ years active in the USAF...and now I'm o-l-d...
I'd not be shocked to see a draft however, if we continue on the road we've been for the past so many years now :/ |

As baddog said above, the military would find something for you to do, objector or not... but you'd go. Or you could try to run away, as you said, and be a draft dodger. It's come to my understanding that that's not the best label to have to live with for the rest of one's life, but hey, at least you'd be alive right? :disgust |

Or more of the Republican chicken hawks leaders who never served...Dennis Hastert, Dick Armey, Bill Frist, Tom DeLay, Trent Lott, Newt Gingrich, and Presidential candidates Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney. And let's not forget administration insiders like Republican Neo-Cons such as Iraq war architects Richard Pearle, Paul Wolfowitz, and Eliot Abrams. Who else...the list is too long, but let's not forget... George Will, did not serve Bill O'Reilly, did not serve Bill Bennett, did not serve Pat Buchanan, did not serve Rush Limbaugh, did not serve Michael Savage (aka Michael Alan Weiner) John Wayne, did not serve Pat Robertson - claimed during 1986 campaign to be a "combat veteran." In reality, was a "Liquor Officer." Sean Hannity, did not serve. Kenneth Starr, did not serve Antonin Scalia, did not serve Clarence Thomas, did not serve Ralph Reed, did not serve Michael Medved, did not serve The list goes on... ADG Webmaster |
the question you should be asking yourself s is who profits

Being forced by the government to go and fight an economic war where there is no direct threat to the US? You call that freedom? :1orglaugh There is no human being more worthless or pathetic that he or she that would allow themselves to be used as a pawn by a government in any war that does not directly threaten their own homeland. The only honorable war is a war of defence. If you're not fighting a war of defence then you are simply a paid mercenary. |

Do you dispute the goverment lied to the US people about WMD in iraq? Knowing that fact if a drat was put into place you would still go and fight? If i was drafted to a war that was not on US soil or did not directly threaten The USA ..then there is no way i would go.Brand me whatever name you like,draft dodger,coward,objector..whatever...point is america was founded on standing up for what you belive in and freedom.I see it as my duty to my country to maintain these values...If not am i a realy free?Am i really what an American is suppose to be? ..me thinks not |

Utter Bollocks. British armed forces have been in the thick of the action in Iraq since day 1 often taking on highly dangerous small scale missions where they would be expected to go "toe to toe" with the enemy rather than resorting to calling in fire power "en masse" to get the job done and are mainly currently engaged in protecting US supply lines in the south of Iraq. LOL, a second level of danger seems to have come from dodging US bullets when your boys get to excited. Quote:

sad how the noble values of sacrifice have been lost with this generation.

It wouldn't take a week, and the draft cards would be set aflame once again!
Better they take all the half-educated HS Grads and require 2 years of Service. Win win! |
