>mfw my friend says he wouldn't dodge the draft if it was implemented Why would anyone want to die for modern day America? There's nothing romantic about being another disposable pawn for western imperialism.

Probably because he romanticizes war and since our modern lives suck he thinks he'd fare better in war. Of course he'd die on an IED but I can understand him.

True, but how does one dodge a draft?

It's not as if anyone here has any worry of actually being sent into combat. Only a loon would put a gun in those hands.

>Western Imperialism If only the West was still glorious, and not shit. Oh, I'd love to be a disposable pawn, for a Victorian type Western civilisation, for Napoleon, or the Roman Empire, or Prussia, or the Holy Roman Empire, oh yes, let me be a pawn in your scheme, to dominate the world, I would, I would, I'd be proud and I would

If this country was actually threatened I would join military in a heartbeat, but I'm not stupid enough to believe we're "portectin our freedums"

No, I would not want to die. There is no longer any honor or glory in dying in battle like the Vikings and such believed.

Because I love being in constant fear and the sounds of turrents and sirens. It's exciting and I'll enjoy learning post-apocalyptic skills for when I turn your draft-evading asses into my rapesluts.

>>4011993 I wouldn't go die in a war no matter how romantic it was. Even if a draft came around, I'd try to volunteer my way into the Chair Force or something.

That's what I fear most about a new war. In a draft, I would be sent off to die for some stupid cause even though I'm a rather small, weak person and most of the faggots on this board would be scott free because they are depressed or have some other diagnosed bullshit that would leave them safe at home. Not to mention all the women would be able to stay at home and be safe which is a huge load of bullshit as well. If they can vote, they can fucking fight god damnit.

I'm borderline obese, so I'm not so worried. Though, if I were in a healthier case, It would depend on why we'd be going to war. Unless we were provoked, I'm not going to die for anybody if it were for, say, the Candabros. And then I'd doubt it; Canadians too chill to start a war.

>Not immediately signing up for the Air Force if the draft were to be implemented. From what I understand they rarely participate in combat. Just use your wizardly autistic powers towards becoming a mechanic.

If the US mainland was invaded or occupied, I would fight. If a draft were instated, I don't think I'd be drafted as an infantryman. I graduate in the Fall and I'm going to graduate school right after. I'm more useful with a computer than a rifle.

Because we have been raised on blind patriotism. Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate soldiers and their sacrifices. But they are not better than me just because they run around in the sand for a few years.

I won't fight any war we have no business in fighting, like the current wars on Iraq and Afghanistan, even if a draft were instated. However, if we were fighting a war that actually meant protecting our nation, I wouldn't hesitate to volunteer to fight. I'd rather have draft-dodger on my conscious than murdering innocent people

My uncle was drafted for Vietnam. He was crushed, and worried sick. The night before he went to the draft board, his friends threw him a big sendoff. Big. Huge. He smoked way over an ounce of weed, drank copious amounts of alcohol, and even snorted some cocaine and speed. He figured, this would be his last party ever, might as well make it worth it. He was still drunk when his friends dropped him off. Stinking of weed, booze, cigarettes and pussy. The draft board made him pee in a cup and it was bright toxic glowing yellow. The piss probably weighed about four pounds. The draft board was super pissed and told him to get the fuck out. Sent him home. So apparently that's all you gotta do. Follow the law and sign up for selective service. Then just do lots of drugs.
