From Joe N., on Fri, 02 Jun 2000 02:41:15 GMT (in response to: DRAFT DODGER'S)
Actually, there has been a conscientious objector exception in military and draft law for hundreds of years. Those exist not because conscience is a result of "inbreeding" but in recogni- tion and implementation of the First Amendment found in the Constitution you falsely profess to love and protect.
Resulting from "inbreeding" is your anti-Constitutional notion that "free speech for me--and those who agree with me--but not for thee". What you're pissed about is the fact that you aren't in a position to dictate your anti-constitutionalism.
And jealousy that you were wrong, and the draft resisters were correct, about US involvement in Viet Nam. You have no regard for the rule of law, so stop the phony-assed claim you fought to protect rights secured in law.
