Be yourself. An American. I'm a progressive who favors a mandatory 2 years of active duty military service or 3 years of civilian service for everyone 18-19-20 after HS and no HS its 18.
I favor use of drones to kill terrorist.

I opposed the 2nd Iraq war and thought using a previously suspected but secret bunker buster bomb to kill high ranking Iraqi government and military officials and their families that were thought to be safe 6-8 reinforced floors below that hotel in Baghdad was the fastest way to cut the legs out from under Saddam Hussain forced an end to the first Iraq War.

I am as steadfast in opposing soon to be President Trump as members of the GOP and their supporters were in their opposition to President Obama for 8 years.

I am a voter.
I am a USN veteran.
I am an American.

Hitler believed in and instituted conscription. Why doesn't your belief in it too surprise me?

You'd never make it Israel. That's a country you support. Israel has 32 month mandatory conscription for men and 24 months for women. Ironically it is populated by the same people Hutler tried to eradicate.

Going to troll better pay attention to what you've posted before attempting inferences to a person who killed millions of the people you allegedly support.

You are a keyboard hero who doesn't really believe you need to do anything except pay taxes

Thank you for saying this. I didn't want to because I never served and I have too much respect for those who did. It's not surprising a piece of shit like him would say that. He's a coward. He denie he's bi sexual because he hates himself. Fuck him.

I toned it down but I am always astounded by how nasty trolls who never served a day want to insult people who did.

Yes because supporting Israel means agreeing with everything they say or do! You're still a moron. Always have been.

I'm not defending anyone.
Just pointing out a poster's disjointed dichotomy of posting views supporting Israel, then trying to disparage me because I favor mandatory military service. The poster was quick to say Nazi Germany had a conscripted military but didn't mention modern Israel has had a conscripted military since its inception.

Trying to ignore the trolling and thank you for your service. I'm curious to why you favor mandatory service? I've always believed service should be voluntary out of free will, especially military service. If we can't get enough people to serve voluntarily, it would seem like we're not fighting very just wars IMO. However, I'm more libertarian on these types of issues (not on economics or other things).

I favor manditory public servce, especially military service because, in my opinion, if a significant number of voters know their children and kin may go into harm's way we are much less likely to see another Iraq style conflict where we see National Guard see 2-3-4 tours of combat duty.

Korea and Viet Nam conflicts were resolved n part because people were being drafted and our elected leaders weren't insulated with supporters who love the troops because none of their immeadiate family will every have to be one of the troops.

I will die believing we would have been getting out of Iraq 4-5 years sooner if we would have had a drafted fighting force.

GRR is a bastion of personal civil rights. Except when it comes to compulsory military service. But he calls everyone else a hypocrite.
