I just got a letter saying that I have a warrant for not registering for the selective service. 5 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Fuck that.

They are supposed to send you all that shit in the mail. It isn't your responsability to go and find them about enlisting, who in the right mind is going to do that. I never got anything when I turned 18 so I guess im just waiting for my arrest warrant.

I don't understand how the US military works. Do you have to serve once your 18 for a certian number of years?

And I did register today. They sent me the form with the letter. They said if I send it in they'll drop the warrant. If they didn't get it in 10 days they were gonna come to my house and charge me with refusing to register or some bullshit.

i hope you are not serious. if you are, wow. you have to sign up for selective service. you can get out of the draft later if there is one by being a consientous objector and other stuff.

i thought getting your license was like a contract that basically says, "since we (the gov) gave you this license, we can select you for the draft." i remember when i filled out a thing to get a replacement permit, i had to sign on a line and it said. "by signing here, you agree to be chosen for selective service" or something...

Hahahaha. Keep your outerwear too, the mountain ranges there are frigid.
Funny story actually, straight from the mouth of a US Marine...they're sending recruits for a 6 week mountain range training exercise in Norway...something they didn't do to recruits when entering Iraq looked possible, that was all just desert combat training and basic.....hmm.

you have to register for the draft which would happen if we went into a huge war and needed more troops to win

Dude if you believe that hardcore in it, then just fucking move to another country and gain residency, honestly. If not, then shut the fuck up and do your civic duty you ungrateful bastard.

So you want to enjoy all the benefits that others died for but not do any of the work yourself? You should leave now, its one thing to disagree, its another to be spineless. There are plenty of other countries for people like you...most of them got trampled by Hitler.
