>>you do not know Kent State? And what the drafted soldiers went through? they were drafted. they had no choice. you not get that??? what is your problem, Koan?<<

Choose, I was right in the middle of all that. I demonstrated agaisnt the Viet Nam war constantly including getting tear gassed.

I joined the National guard (6 months active duty) to get out of the war. I was not going to fight in that war. I owuld have gone to canada.

Then they tried to draft me as an agitator and I went to my congressman Baldwin and got out on a seperated shoulder injury from football.
