Radiated is new and deserves a hearing.

I think a troop who served 4 tours in a seemingly never-ending war might see the carnage in our military and be looking for a better way.

There ARE some good things to commend a FAIR draft. I lived through the draft years of Vietnam and joined in 1970. A fair draft would ensure that every classification of Americans would have some skin in the game.

That might not override the value of a professional force, but it is a significant thing in a day when most Americans don’t even remember we have troops in danger.

I say we should give radiated spam a fair shot at being a long-term freeper.

I heard him. I don't believe him.

If you want to vouch for him as personally known to you (friend, son-in-law, whatever), I might re-consider.

Until then, I consider it a troll.
