This country was going downhill the day we got involved in the Middle-East and Israel. In other words, we made their problem, our problem.

I have citizenship because of my mom to me it really doesn't matter. I do like this country though and what it once stood for(at that time I would have been proud to call myself a citizen) but now rights are being taken away and the country is taking a turn for the worst.

Well my username is just after the show but I do support a democracy just one that follows its own rules. Either way I have to register which I understand, although I know what they are doing is wrong and unconstitutional but if I do ever get drafted I won't be going anywhere except for court(as long as they don't take away all my rights and amendments by that time).

Haha...umm but it clearly says in a time of crisis they may draft me to the army...which clearly goes against the 13th and 14th amendments
13th: Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
keywords "involuntary servitude"

Hello SonsOfAnarchy,
You should Google the words "conscientious objector".
There is all kinds of information about your situation.
You are not a baby for Not Wanting To Kill Another Person.
A conscientious objector is: One who on the basis of religious or moral principles refuses to bear arms or participate in military service.

[How would they know how you lived your life anyway?? and thats not true that you have to live your whole life like because if I just don't think war solves anything then how can they even force me to even give aid as a medic in something that I'm against. Whatever though I'm just going to register for this bs and hope the draft doesn't happen and if it does I'll figure out what to do.

I cannot accept that for the main reason that it violates my rights and if I decided not to register I believe I should not be punished.

It's things like this that make me happy to live in NZ.
If there was ever a draft here my friends and I all agree we would go into hiding. If we were found, we would gladly accept court marshal instead of going into battle.
A unanimous "F--- that!"

If I ever do get drafted there is no way in hell I will serve...I rather rot in prison then having the possibility of surviving a war and coming back home #ed up in the head.
I think you mean a Court Martial

Well then I'll give them some options. Either they leave me alone and everything is dandy or they get shot trying to get me to got fight. We don't have the death penalty.
