Do you really blame the draft dodgers back during Nam? Such a waste of American blood


While I still can’t stand Bill Clinton, his draft dodging never really bothered me as much

Yeah I don’t think you would need it but if it happened you’d have guys that would go and guys that wouldn’t.

And looking at it now and how dudes were treated after coming back. You can’t really be mad.

I mean I have a hard time wanting to go to lands people have been on for centuries and force America on them.

Also we haven’t declared war since WWII.

Um, you don't know your history then.

He came very close to taking over the world. The Russians of all people kept it from happening as well as his own hubris thinking he could take Russia in the winter.

It did not work for the USA in Vietnam.

It did not work for the USSR in Afghanistan.

It did not work for Iraq in the Gulf War.

It is not working for Russian in the Russo-Ukrainian War.

IDK when leaders are going to realize that conscription is not a viable option in modern warfare.
