U.S. Government-sanctioned Slavery

[vegetariantaxidermy]

Congress is now considering forcing women to register for selective service (the military draft system) under penalty of law instead of eliminating selective service all together. This is one of the most oppressive, despotic and tyrannical laws ever devised by the U.S. government.

What about WWII, was the draft justified then? What about cases of last ditch defense against an attacker who unjustly seeks to destroy the nation?

No, it wasn't justified. No human should ever be made to go to war. It's the most basic of human rights. Let politicians and corporate giants fight their own shitty battles, and they won't find any shortage of volunteer psychopathic warmongers to do their dirty work.

Except for the military, you can quit any fucking job in America whenever you want without breaking the law!

WRONG,WRONG,WRONG. YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE YOUR RESEARCH BETTER.

Give me a single example.

It's peacetime, and I'm a clerk-typist in the United States, so why shouldn't I be able to tell my boss to go fuck himself? I can except in the military. Please, don't bring that combat bullshit into play!

Wouldn't it reduce the readiness or effectiveness of the military if people could quit or refuse orders at will?

No, it wouldn't, and maybe the government should explain to prospective enlistees that the military will treat them like shit, and that's the reason they can't quit, even if they're ready to blow their fucking brains out.

He just needs to think things through more or else acknowledge when others have valid points.

Please, I've never found anybody in this forum to have a valid point on anything.

Just give me an example, you dumb motherfucker who has no business on this or any other thread.

That's because you are a loony who needs to keep his insanity to stop from going truly barking.

You're too lazy to look it up. Your example awaits.

The black slaves in America got three hots and a cot, just like U.S. servicemen do. ...

Not quite, you didn't pay the black slaves, nor give them disability compensation, a pension, education and training, health care, home loans, life insurance, vocational rehabilitation and employment, and burial benefits.

I thought you lived in the greatest country on the planet? Move here as we have no such tyranny.

Please, black slaves were treated with dignity not afforded to soldiers. Oh, I forgot, even though you disdain the USA, and don't even pay any attention to it, you know more about this country than any American!

It's better than blowing childrens' brains out.
The US has reinvented slavery. Prison forced labour is a huge industry. No wonder the US has the most incarcerated population on the planet, and it's mostly black. Oh the irony of the 'home of the free'.

Well, consider this.

•38.8% (6,332,000) of U.S. servicemen and all servicewomen were volunteers
•61.2% (11,535,000) were draftees

Had there been no draft I wonder how many of us would now be members of the "Greater East Asia Co-prosperity sphere". If you think American Power is bad ask the people of Nanking in 1937 what it was like to be under Imperial Japanese rule. Or had the Soviets not conscripted their people would anything have stopped Nazi Germany from ruling the world? My understanding is that fascism was pretty horrible to live under. Ask the people of France what their rations were like under German occupation.

Stick to the subject, European idiot.

You just don't get it. NO ONE has the right to order ANYONE to kill people. Conscientious objectors have been persecuted and tortured. They are the only heroes of war as far as I'm concerned. Hmm, you had the draft for the Vietnam war. You lost that, just like you lose every war. I see you have been taken over by Asian 'commies' as a result. Actually, China pretty much owns the world now anyway. Paranoid yanks.
