For those who don't know, this guy is a wannabe. He used to tell history classes at Mt. Holyoke College about his secret and dangerous missions while serving in Vietnam. He used to talk about being nearby the village of My Lai while the massacre there was taking place. Well he did serve in the Army. His entire tour was as a professor of history at West Point. On the bright side, there was never a VC mortar attack on West Point during his stay there.
The American People will know when their freedom is at stake. The American military won't have a hard time recruiting if the American People feel the cause is worth fighting for. A mandatory service military would give the Government a much larger force and the temptation to misuse it would be greater.
Once upon a time the strongest ruffian beat out all the other ruffians, and men like this, who were then called priests, gave him the title "King."
I do not make claims on the lives of others, and I do not honor claims on my life. I owe the state nothing. The agents of the state will rue the day they legislate my enslavement.
Well the average citizens did not start this war...nor did we ask for it....nor do we support it. So please explain to me why WE should be forced to fight someone else's battle? Piss off!
A: The force of the State would used against you and if you resist you will be killed.
Why don't you just hold a gun to my head and call me your slave?
There is not moral difference between that and you and your friend holding the guns. There is no moral difference if a hundred million of your friends are holding the guns. Slavery is still slavery even if it is given a different name.

"Mandatory national service."
Q:How would it be mandatory?
A: The force of the State would used against you and if you resist you will be killed.
