Would you defend your country if the draft were reinstated tomorrow?

*Inspired by the debate going on in presidential elections.


For me, no.

I simply don't have faith, and never will again, that the man in charge has the slightest idea what he's dong.

I would not give my life for this president.



You?

[Diff-chan]

Yes I would.

[Wilykat]

If I were being drafted to fight in a war to defend America itself: Yes

If I were being drafted to fight in a war to defend American interests? No.

[youandwhosearmy]

Yes I would.

You voted no by accident, didn't you?

[Diff-chan]

You voted no by accident, didn't you?

Uhh I voted yes, chief.

[Mzo]

It definitely depends on the reason behind the war.

To defend your country and loved ones, then of course. I'd have to see, but odds are it'd be yes.

If I were being drafted to fight in a war to defend America itself: Yes

If I were being drafted to fight in a war to defend American interests? No.

Yeah thats pretty much how I feel. If all our military might was in Afgahanastan and Pakistan, yeah I would probably go.

It all really matters on whether or not I'd be able to sleep at night, and defending American interests around the world, wouldn't make that possible.

Uhh I voted yes, chief.

Sorry when I typed that there were three no's and no yes's.

[Jimmy Carter]

Yessir.

[lithium]

Under Kerry's rule, yes. Bush, no. Kerry served in the military, I have faith he'd respect my life and only use it if absolutely necessary. If for no other reason than he'd know exactly what he was about to put my through. Bush has already shown he has no respect for human life.

I strongly believe that service in the military should be a requirement for the Presidency.

Since it would never be to defend America, I'd have to say no. I'm not going to fight a war I don't believe in, and the only war I think America should be fighting is a war to protect America itself.
