El Blanco What the hell does that mean? "Old Europe". These are modern countries that require military service. Its not unprecedented in the liberal models of forward thinking.

Guderian Old Europe.

El Blanco And those 3rd world shit holes, France and Switzerland.

Guderian Mandatory military service? That's the kind of thing you'd find in Uzbekistan.

You either have no sense of humor and didn't get the joke, or you really are blind enough not to see how a draft can go wrong.

Of course, the irony here is that you don't seem to be able to express yourself better than, "I had no idea you were a fucking moron."
studies should be done why evey news/politics forum on the internet will always have exchanges like this.

and why you will probably ONLY see it in these kinds of forums.

El Blanco If I'm in the middle of a firefight curled up in a foxhole, the last thing I want to see is a chick winding up to throw a grenade. Kill half the squad because the damn thing 5 feet.

But seriously, I don't think a draft is a good idea:

1) Ya, too many loopholes for the connected

2) People who enlisted volunterily probably aren't crazy about having to put their lives in the hands of someone who had to be dragged there

Emu but the boobs would distract the soldiers

Helm women should get drafted too

AChimp Hmm... I like the point that Anthony F. Sarcone made, that instituting a draft would make people much less eager to go off and invade other countries. This would definitely occur.

I also find it interesting that a large number of the pro-draft opinions were submitted by a) women or b) people who talked about Vietnam with personal references.

It's easy to support something that won't affect you. These people are obviously too old to be drafted or wouldn't qualify in the first place, and if they think that the military is in such dire need of soldiers, why don't they go ENLIST? Cowards.

Baltimore Citizens chime in on the draft

I found this series of letters to the editor when I clicked on a news link. I think there are good points made on both sides of the fence.

I'm not going to cut and paste it here, because it's too long. So click on the link:
