    The more you say stupid shit like this the closer we come to a draft where Barron is sent to whereever the safest place near-ish the front lines is.

    You are sleepwalking into a draft and you should be ashamed for even suggesting it. Like, genuinely — you are a stupid, bad fucking person for hoping for a draft.

    Edit: Interesting how many troglodytes came out of the woodwork, and half of them are Canadian. When children, your children, start to die as a result of the world you’ve helped build — I will not let you forget.

      Drafting the kids of leaders first in any draft makes a draft less likely dude. No amount of deranged anger from you is going to change that.

      I think the point of the draft “thought experiment” they were proposing was to stop people from starting these wars and conflicts if they had a personal stake in it.

      There’s this NPR episode I heard where they said that the codes to the nuke should be in someone’s heart and that person carries a suitcase with a knife. To get the nuke, the president should plunge the knife into that man to do it. It’s absolutely horrific and bloody but to kill many from afar you should at least be able to do one up close. I think that the person that recommended it said he’d be the first volunteer and would love that job. He’d make best friends with the president and get to know their kids, just to make the decision absolutely impossible.

      I’d like to think that’s what they were getting at? Your response to the thought experiment seemed confusing at first but I think what you’re getting is that they’d just send the kids to safe areas of the war, rather than anything real anyways, right? which makes sense … politicians would weasel to get their own skin out. I’m not 100% sure why that’d lead to a draft? Do you mean in retribution they’d take it out on others and protect their own?

      Anywho, from another Canadian. ✌️

          it seems you have severe issues with reading comprehension, so I will spell out: the leaders are calling for draft, not that user. that user targeted these pre-existing leaders with their statement.
