[extropy-chat] Fwd: Manditory draft for your child?

[Mike Lorrey]

I should note that Eleanor Norton rescinded her cosponsorship of the
bill yesterday before the vote.

While this should help convince the public that the draft talk is a
sham, I am sure the conspiracy theorists in the monkey cage will
continue to spin stories, hoping something sticks to the wall.

Now, if a major city suffers a huge WMD attack, I would not be
surprised for there to be a draft. Only an idiot could expect
otherwise. An attack like that would be like Hannibal marching the
elephants on Rome: Americans will develop a Russian sense of xenophobia
and will sow the ground with salt, wherever they find the perps or
their supporters.

Such a situation would force the libertarian commuinity to admit
whether they are really NAP/ZAP supporters, or merely pacifists in
porcupine clothing.
