My son won't be dying for this criminal government

[ThisCantBeRealTV]

The politicians and billionaires supporting these BS bills should have there kids drafted first

[owenlott]

My problem is the people who voted for this aren't the ones going to war.

[BrianCervantes-bgcm]

Imagine going to war for a country that refuses to respect your constitutional rights. lol. What a sick joke 😂

[rafaelmartinez]

Most young men would flat out go to jail before they go to war. And for good reason

[JohnDoe-iqzr]

Do not comply with the draft we will not die for corrupt politicians

[horsemeat]

I would rather rot in a federal prison, then throw my life away for a tyrannical government that doesn't even respect our constitution. 🖕🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[francisty]

Good luck in convincing the young. Young American men will refuse to go. Why you may ask? Because if the Government can commit Treason, then the laws don't apply.

[samlaslo]

I'm cool with it as long as Politician's grand kids are first on front lines. 😂

[hybridPeople]

Rich children's don't have to worry about that. If we at war, that's a double war. I am not dying before their rich kids and their private schools.

[bizzybee]

DO NOT be fooled. They have been talking about the draft, they are changing the policies and laws for the Draft. The Draft is absolutely going to be reinstituted.

[ercmaurer]

My tax dollars have paid for all your military weapons. I’m not paying with my children. Nope.

[LPAFilm]

This news report is lacking. Anyone who is paying attention see the SIGNS that there is more to this that meets the eye. Especially if you're paying attention to FOREIGN POLICY. It was already required but many DON'T register in PROTEST. THey are FORCING YOU TO DO IT NOW. TAKING AWAY YOUR PROTEST!

[BrianCervantes-bgcm]

You’re old enough to go to w*r but you’re not old enough to drink. Also not allowed to smoke 😂 or purchase a hand speaker. Can’t even rent a car ! lol

[j.s.]

If there's nothing to worry about then why is it being forced??? 🤔

[longlivechrist]

As an autistic 17 year old male, I refuse to go to war. Because what are we dying for?

[NeoAutodroid]

I voluntarily tried to join up with the Navy but they denied me because of my tattoos. Alright well if y'all are going to be that picky don't come to me with a draft if war does actually occur. Wasn't good enough for y'all then, ain't going to comply when you think I'm good enough in the future.

[msk]

Why would anyone want to lay down their lives for this country

[ljjhech]

You politicians line your kids up for draft to fight your dirty little wars

[TheBringeroftruth]

Make the rich politicians kids go 1st the draft will end over night.
