NO ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!<\b> We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. <\i> A draft violates every right given to us by our CREATOR! EVERY RIGHT!!!<\b> A draft violates our LIBERTY<\b> by taking away the freedom of the individual and enslaving them to the whims of the government! A draft places newly enslaved people in harm's way resulting in taking the life of far too many! A draft thereby takes away the unalienable right to LIFE<\b> that God has granted us!! Is it necessary to discuss the draftee's HAPPINESS?<\b> The very idea of a draft is abhorrent to the basic tenets of the Declaration of Independence. LIFE, LIBERTY and THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS!!!

Then disband all armed forces. The idea that compulsory service is wrong minded is absurd. A nation is made up of its citizens- if all want the same security, then the same risks should be borne by all able bodied....
