Previous Post So that would exclude you from any decisions; and only ~19 year olds in the military (and I presume those with boots on the ground) should get to vote and decide on all war involvement. Thank you for your input. Now, I would like to get back to rational decision making if you don't mind.

No it means that since you're not personally risking anything, you shouldn't be so cavalier about the waging of war. And in terms of what rationally has to happen, I think anyone can weigh in. My point was you brought up the idea of cowardice, and since you're not going to be gracing the battlefield with your presence, from my position, I'd say you're not any less cowardly. How is saying we should send a bunch of people to kill and die on your behalf some how more brave?

And I'm not preventing you from getting back to anything.
