    You recieve a letter in the mail, saying you've been drafted. What is your reaction?
    Gelatinous Cube and Divinus Arma:

    So, you said earlier that solypsist is a coward for not complying in a draft when an enemy army is invading the United States:

    That someone wouldn't join a draft even if the country were invaded is just disgusting. You don't have to be a reactionary conservative to defend your homeland.
    First of all, it's a theoretical draft. I think you're taking this bit far calling people cowards. Second of all in the first post did ghost908 say an enemy army was invading? No. He states quite clearly we are the ones declaring war even though we don't have the man power. Third of all, once again remember that this is not a real war and if a real one did come around, you're saying you'd join no matter the reason?

    EDIT: Excuse me if this has been already stated or remedied, but I only read the first page and felt it necessary to post.
