Do you count the National Guard as the military or as a homegrown effort?

OMG!! It''s like groundhog day for goldfish. Do you really not remember what you've said before or do you just have a set of copy/pastes to hand?
Still, no matter as we're talking about a draft and you don't have to go.

Any British soldier can buy his way out if his contract. I imagine that is exactly the same for yankies.

I believe the Federal draft system encourages some people to join the National Guard, which is operated by the States. Regardless, it's the threat of being conscripted that is improper and violates the U.S. Constitution.

Yeah. I REALLY have this intuition that Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States.
It's strange. People are going to the Trump rally now holding the exact same copy of the handbook constitution that Khizr Khan held up that night and are being booed & yelled at by Trump supporters.
“There has to come a point at which you say ‘enough,’” the president declared.
Obama cited Trump’s bitter public feud with Khizr and Ghazala Khan. Their son Humayun, a 27-year-old Muslim American Army captain, was killed by a suicide bomber in Iraq in 2004.
“The notion that he would attack a Gold Star family that had made such extraordinary sacrifices on behalf of our country, the fact that he doesn’t appear to have basic knowledge around critical issues in Europe, in the Middle East, in Asia, means that he’s woefully unprepared to do this job,”
~ Esteemed President Barack Hussein Obama ~
44th President of these United States

Keep coming-up with these mean spirited threads that I once created - both related to the American elections and just in-general in perhaps other topics.
I want to do a complete cleansing. The more I see the better.
Thank you. And again, I renounce any thought or image that may have been offensive to anyone over the past year or so...
This, for me, is epic and a god-sent of an opportunity to dramatically change my life.
Thank you for being here for me as an active agent for my transition into a better, more fulfilling & mature life.
We have a common future and I am anxious to see it.
We cannot Make America Great Again without love, empathy, and common goals as a nation.
I believe, although I am one of the few individuals that see this now here, we are on our way.
