If the www did not exist alot more things could've gotten passed through with as much as a peep.
Please for the sake of the nation let us not be at one another's throats. We will always have the power because Lady Liberty's Torch is bright tonight!
Yeah, it's extreme to equate the law with Nazi Germany...but I feel that this law is extreme in it's neutering of free will.

your logic is unsound, your "educational" posts highly suspect; littered with fear, hate, and discontent...something that, i submit, you would have the tools to deal with had you ever served in any capacity.
but you have really started to bore me. burning the koran will not make any difference and the fact that you feel the need to lower yourself to such an act only underscores my opinion that your genitals strongly resemble an anatomically correct barbie doll.
your opinion does not matter to me in the slightest. you have not served and so are not really a person to me. just another immigrant mooching off of true americans.

I understood that this bill had no legs before posting, but what bothered me
was the opinion of some posters in favor of mandatory community service.
We've been on a slippery slope since before mandatory seatbelt use
was introduced and embraced by the populace. Good idea or not, once you
start down this path it is hard to turn around. And
tyranny is the final destination.
Anyway...not a hoax. Maybe alot of hot air though

Germany was used as an example. It is awfully easy, though, to see all of these laws passing hidden inside of countless bills adding up to the framework for tyranny. Sure, it's easy to laugh it all off, and say no one would ever do that here in America. Well, I bet if some dead Presidents came back to life, they'd be amazed at some of the laws we've passed today, which take away rights that they enjoyed in the past.
Yeah, it's extreme to equate the law with Nazi Germany...but I feel that this law is extreme in it's neutering of free will. I don't ask the government for hand outs, all I ask it to do is defend the country I live in, and protect a peaceful society. They are more than capable of doing that with the taxes they take from my hard earned salary. So, why should the government ask me to serve when I disagree with the majority of it's politicians in Washington, D.C.?
If some of you want to live in a society that controls what you do, and when you do it, then more power to you. If you want to support a government that prints money with no value, terrorizes it's own citizens with it's own government organizations (I'll name just one, CIA), utilizes perpetual war and colonialism to further it's own secret power plays, taxes it's citizens beyond what is necessary to function in the capacity it was created by the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and hides technology and advancements in research for the military industrial complex, then do so.
I don't have any problem telling you that I do not care about that government. I care about my family, and whether or not my local government can protect them, and me. That is all, and that is all I ever expect.
It's not as if the government has been providing most of the advancements in society...it is a free society that has been doing that. The government is there to protect that society, and it's advancements, not mold or control them.

posted the reply to the wrong person. doesn't really matter though, the context is the same. you keep blah, blah, blahing about research and the constitution or religious texts, but you don't grasp the basic concept that your "rights" are imaginary just like anything else. trust is earned, respect is given and rights are protected...they are protected because the big bad scary man can come and take them from you anytime they want because you are too weak to hold onto them. face facts, you don't oppose this on any religious stance, this isn't a rights issue because you have none and should probably have the remainder removed as well just to get you back on track. you are entitled to squat in this life. the government can reinstitute the draft fairly quickly w/o any additional legislation so i know this isn't some preconceived argument to defend your cowardice. you are not a conscientious objector so much as a cry baby. your issue is being told to work...probably just having to work in general...which is ultimately the only point. this country used to be full of workers, people who threw responsibility onto their shoulders and soldiered on like men. now we have you...perhaps it’s time to remove the notion of rights to get rid of the soft and pathetic among us that are blocking up the evolution of the species.

Well lets sit back and watch the madness ensue.
What will this Idiot think of next. Maybe the US could ask all parents to have one extra kid and hand it over to the gov at birth so it can be trained as a Super Soldier. A never ending supply of Military pawns.
How did this comedian Make it into the WHITE house.
On the upside this shows the Progress America has made in 200 years.
