I’ll be damned if I’m going to let my children become subject to conscription under this “National Service Bill” by our federal government for ANYTHING of this sort...

TIME TO CALL, WRITE and basically RAISE HELL! Our youth will NOT support this! One of the things I heard younger people who supported Obama actually worry about was some sort of a draft. Well, this may not be for “military service”, but it is conscription nonetheless.

Your body, your time, your energy do not exist to become fodder for our government. They have NO RIGHT to demand these things of us...

Seriously, even if this passes,

no way I’ll comply.

And I will resist with any means at my disposal to defy compliance with this.

I think we might be surprised. At first I was thinking, yes, they would, so long as “service” didn’t include any kind of military service or training...but then again, think about it.... I’d bet even with a military aspect they would, depending on how it was presented and to what extent young Obamanists would go to “protect” and “defend” Obamanism.

Exactly.

Kaiser Wilhelm and the Czars had mandatory conscription. There are paintings in the Russian National Museum, poignant scenes of young men being pulled away from their families, never to return.

Furthermore, this is why MY family came TO America — or as my great-great-grandfather told his baby son, “You shall not serve the Kaiser.”
