If the U.S. brought back the draft, would you comply, resist, or enlist?

[Anonymous]

Also, if you did resist, would you allow yourself to be sent to prison, or would you leave the country, as many men did during Vietnam?

[slatyb]

Too old, but if I were that age, I would not participate in a Trump war. I doubt I would have served in Vietnam for about the same reason. I don't take orders well, and would have filed to be a CO (probably failed), gotten a school deferment, or left the country.

At 72, I don't think I'd have to worry about the draft.

[Asker]

No, you do not have to worry about it, but that really isn't the question, is it?

[beefcakebradybatson]

No, but I applied a personal touch to it.

[Asker]

So pretend now that you were 23 years old. What would you do in the context of the draft?

[Staximus]

I’m too old to be drafted, but will fight if we’re being invaded. Head for the hills and let the idiots fight it out in the lowlands.

No fucking way I'm going be cannon fodder for billionaires and then neglected IF I make it back alive. Fuck that, screw them. They can send their own kids. Ever notice how THAT doesn't happen!!

[Asker]

Of course that doesn't happen because their kids are special, Unlike the rest of us of course. We and our kids are just cannon fodder but they want to test weapons on.

Exactly.
