8. "just the poor kids will get drafted,mainly the blacks and hispanics"

"just the poor kids will get drafted,mainly the blacks and hispanics"

pure 100 proof ignorance there.

if there WERE a draft I assure you it would include plenty of white kids - and likely women as well - but you do have somewhat of a point about the RAELLY wealthy kids out there - most would likely find a way out of a HYPOTHETICAL draft

keep in mind that if a draft DOES return it'd likely be as the Democrats drew it up (Rangel/Hollings) so that you can be drafted into NON COMBAT related duties....

which is still bad IMO....

7. I'm one of them, but I admit that my group is cowed eaisly by repukes

The kids are being raised in a system that teaches them to obey the corporate heirarchy, please people go with home-school if you can.
