Default What would you do if a draft came?

I'm curious to hear what people on here of DRAFT AGE would do if there was a draft. I think draft age is something like 18-25. If there was a draft tomorrow, what would you do?

For those unintelligent people who read this thread, CO stands for conscientious objector.

I myself would apply for CO status. If that didn't work, I would try to go to Canada most likely.

If you really are a CO you should stay and risk jail rather then run. But as I said, I don’t’ think you’ll have to make that choice.

I don't know if I'd qualify as a CO because I'm not opposed to war in general, or even the ideas behind this war. I agree that we should eliminate the Muslim terrorists there.. I just didn't support sending troops over.

In a previous thread you also wrote

...I want Muslim holy cities to be bombed....It is time to realize what Islam really is- a stupid religion that needs to be ended......Muslims breed like crazy, and they have the capability to take over a country and turn it into a cesspool, just like most of the Middle East. We cannot let these people win. They must be bombed, and fast.


[/ QUOTE ]

You wouldn't qualify for a CO as you have no conscience but you may be given a differment based on insanity. If you did make a run for Canada, I would hope the Canadians send you back so you can spend a very long time in Federal "pound me in the ass" prison.

I for one would appreciate it if you made a preemptive move to Canada. That would really put GWB in his place.

Bush wants to invade Iran, and we don't have the troops for it. Substantial numbers of troops will likely remain in Iraq for years to come. Where do we get the manpower? The draft is the only viable option that I see, as recruiting is really suffering.
