Should we force mentally disabled persons into the ARMY?

Question

I think we should! It's not fair that us normal people have to fight for our country, and serve everything to them on a silver platter! This is AMERICA, EVERYONE IS EQUAL!

Answer 1

You could put the mentally ill, blacks, jews, asians, homos on the front line as a first defence ala Southpark Movie.

Answer 2

you sound kind of loony. i have news for you. everyone is not equal. i don't care what kind of communist propaganda has been crammed down your throat, but, look around! it's just not true. the constitution declares that everyone shall receive the same OPPORTUNITY guaranteed here in america. no one is forcing (and it's funny you used the word normal to describe someone who isn't mentally disabled and then turned around and said we're all equal) the "normal" people to join the armed forces. there is no draft, my friend. not to mention, if you sent a bunch of disabled people to defend your *ss, there's a good chance they'll lose. why? because other countries seem to have their sh*t together and wouldn't send mentally challenged people to fight a war. on another note, show me a country that is as divided as america. why is it that no one here understands countries are conquered from within? you say we're equal. i'm sure you hold your own opinion as gospel. that creates division. none of us can unite behind a central idea.

Answer 3

It does not, and now each and every physique is finally beginning to work out this conflict from a clean attitude. the reality that the U.S. seems to be an unconditional "buddy of Israel" is absurd. We, of direction will idly sit down by until eventually we've something to earnings or lose, this conflict has been occurring for some years, what could Palestinians have probably finished so otherwise this time, that would justify this? no longer something, yet i will say that Israel is basically following by using with usa's occasion of skill and concept that bombing and killing many innocents is justified if we are concentrated on "terrorists". what's maximum shameful, is that of all communities Israel could observe and tender of genocide, and that's strictly what's occurring.

Answer 4

I'm pretty offended by this. I'm in the US Air FOrce and let me tell you, it's not as easy as you may believe. A lot of us work VERY hard and have to make tough, demanding decisions all the time. I've been in for 2 years and I still have stuff I study for for my job. You must go though a batery of tests, both mental and physical, before even being considered to join ANY branch of the military. Whether people wnat your scenario to wrk, it wouldn't. And my answer regardless is NO.

Answer 5

Mentally disabled in most cases would be more a hinderance than an asset. Would you want a mentally disables person teaching your children in school, or defending your freedom, I don't think so

Answer 6

Uh-huh, yeah, right.

You are advocating giving mentally disable people weapons? I'm not saying that ALL mentally disable people can't handle weapons or drive cars, but where would you draw the line?

Have YOU served?

Answer 7

They already do the rest go into the Marines Air Force and Navy

Answer 8

Because you voted them all into the senate.Who would run your country if you send all the retards to war ? In fact do it. I would Love to watch Private G Dubya Bush in his combat gear trying to work out which end of a gun the bullets come out of.The comic possibilities are endless.

Answer 9

We don't force ANYBODY into the Army. Besides, I don't want a mentally disabled person wielding a gun.

Answer 10

Choca Fanatic, why would you want us to force you to join us in the military? I agree in principal that you can stop a bullet just as well as the rest of us, I only wish you could do it before we have to find you unfit for service.
