Those are a lot of corps......

I think I'll be getting my handgun license now.

What exactly the hell does he mean "Whether you'll be getting a train ride or a barrack"? He knows exactly what we are concerned about and tells us not to be since itll be a common experience?

I suppose the jews in the concentration camps shouldn't have been so worried, since it was a common jewish experience of the time.

The idea itself to get kids/young adult to do devote x amount of time to community service is a noble idea, hey, better than watching t.v. or playing video games all summer or on weekends. But, mandatory? There's no way this will fly. But, I've seen and heard many interpretations of what this program would actually do, and how it will actually work. So only time will tell how exactly this program will work.

50-100 hours isn't that bad. that's like 1-2 hours a weekend for 50 weekends. When it's broken down like that, it doesn't sound that bad.

The more and more I hear about it, the more and more it seems to move from community service to something else..

I do not understand to much about your political system (being from Europe) but am i correct that every level of goverment is on the Obama side and every law they trie to pass will do so without obstruction...

If this is the case than this a more than concirning situation. some 60 years ago a very polulair man in Germany had the same idea on giving all it's citizens a civil duty. And everybody agreed. This man was truly loved by his people and most of them had no idea what the secret agenda was.

I certainly hope the amercan people will see the writting on the wall but as soon as they start taking kids out of their home for civil education i'm sure more will wake up.

Only question is if it won't be to late by then.....

So he wants people to do community service. WTF is wrong wiht that? Sounds like you are reading way too far into something that it's not. My high school had mandatory community service and it made me a better person to volunteer my time working in a hospital in the pediatrics section.

Nothing wrong with community service in my eyes. Not sure what you are seeing that is so scary.

seems like theonly choice left is what to refer to america as..

The homeland?

The motherland?

The fatherland?

What article did you guys read? I'm thoroughly confused about this reaction to a community service program. Explain it to me like I'm a five year old because I'm not seeing any reason to react so strongly and so negatively.

This is how the Hitler-Youth movement started. Nice one. They at first didn't notice themselfs what was really going on. Wake up America. Do yourself a favour and fight those radicals hiding behind the puppet government that's being portrait. Start to beleive it, before it is too late.

OK World Nut Daily for a start.

Secondly the audio clip iS very heavily edited, and in the part where he is going to say Baraks or at (home) the at home is cut out.

The details of this need to be looked at, if it means everyone in the US has to spend 3 months between the ages of 18-25 doing voluntary work in local charity hospitals, or if they can help in schools, clean up graffiti....

Well if they are gang banging anyhow, or unemployed, depending on certain parameters as mentioned below it is not a bad idea.

I have not read the proposed legislation though, so the specifics are very important indeed,

3 months at any time between 18-25... broken up? 1 month every year or two....

2 hours a week?

Or a choice to go and do 3 months instead in one place?.

Indeed the way World Nut Daily portray this it is very worrying but I will as shown above reserve my condemnation, which would viterol, all inclusive and very very loud if it is a kind of "Hitler Youth" of any type at all....

But in the mean time it may be a good idea... like said for hospitals, community work, staying at home, giving the coming 15% of unemployment or higher in the US education and references experience may not be a bad thing.

The important thing is the ability of the individual to tailor the service to their needs or likes and dislikes, to fit in with their and their families career and education and care needs...

Lets wait and see, I really cant see any type of forced 3 months in a camp ever being accepted in the US anyhow.

Elf.

the best indication you will have the oncoming time is how they will treat people who don't agree with Obama's ideas. If they are gonna be ridiculed or tried to be set aside then you will have a good idea of what will follow next.....

PS: the hitler jugend was also a civil duty for kids witch was looked upon at the time as a nice thing for kids to do, to help out and do their part for society.
