No one wants war but the lives of some shouldn't be less than others. My friends who never came home alive should have equal value to everyone else. My friends didn't want to die their children didn't want them to die but that is war. A draft is fair but will never happen.
When tensions with #Iran was high and people feared a draft for their children it made me sick. It showed most people love freedom but when the time to pay comes they leave it to others. Don't worry me and people like me gladly defend freedom without a draft. Semper Fi do or die.

I was in high school when my friends got drafted. The few that made it back, well, never mind. Just please get off your high horse!

I never experienced a draft that must have been difficult. I signed up for the Marine Corps at 17 in a time of war did 2 tours by 21. I've lost friends to war and more to suicide after the war. I have ptsd, I have been suicidal and overcame alcoholism from what I experienced.

Congrats Eric, this comment just might qualify you to run as a Republican!

Equality is Republican? Life is hard war is hell. I believe everyone needs to do their part. When things get difficult everyone must do their part or the consequences could be dire.

No. I am from a historically military family. Lost an uncle in the Pacific, oldest brother was missing in action presumed dead for 4 months in Vietnam. I don't want my son's fighting for this president's corruption of democracy.

Men and women volunteer so there is not a draft they go to war so others don't have to, if it came to it and they needed support its only fair it's equally done. I don't support war I've been in war I'm disabled for life from war I've lost friends to war.

bad take of course people are worried about a draft because wealthy people can buy their way out of being drafted

Yes that's true but it's the principle of the thing. We have no drafts because brave men and women volunteer during peace and war. Then if the time comes for everyone else to be randomly selected they all say nah. That feels like a slap in the face. Maybe it's just me idk.
