#VeryHotTake: All #Conscription is inherently bad and irredeemable!
Instead:
- allow people not only to defende themselves by owning the means of defending as civilians.
- Pay people to want to do the risky jobs that need to be done [i.e. Firefighter] so good that there will always be more fitting applicants than vacancies.
- Build your nation to be worth fighting for!
Otherwise Conscription is just legalized #ForcedLabour with legalized #DeathPenalty combined.
Because you don't want conscripts because if the only thing that keeps armed people fighting for you or fighting on your side is their fear of getting shot, then it's an absurd idea to arm them at all...
Someone please provide me an actual rational reason why we allow forcibly conscripted people to carry machineguns but not the law-abiding average citizen they're forcibly recruited from.
- If you don't trust your Average Joe to own, carry and properly [not] use a firearm, then why would you trust a cop or soldier to be any better?
- After all it is proven record that you'll find above average amounts of people embracing violence in the military and police, since they usually are chosen there because of those mild sociopathic tendencies.
The only case where #abortion should be #criminalized is when it's done against the explicit will of the #pregnant person!
