This is a communist move. This will amount to slavery, unpaid labor God knows where. Believe me, this isnt for your typical SOUP KITCHEN.
I came from a Communist country and this is how they do it.
You have been warned many times by me. I will just stop saying it now.

Castro did this in Cuba. They essentially took grade-schoolers

The president never served anything beyond NWO interests.
Rahm Emanuel served his country, Israel. These two make
Bush and his National Guard joy ride seem patriotic. Have
the plan start with every college athlete on scholarship and
see how that flies. Start with the Final Four rosters.
Or will inner city hoopsters be excused?
Man... I tell you what... the level of FEAR coming out of you cowards is just disgusting.
If you don't want to serve your country... then leave. There is the door. Go.
