If the USA congress re-enacts the war draft....

Would you be a draft dodger in order to save your life?

During the Vietnam War many men ran to Canada & Sweden to avoid the draft.


Footnote & Update:

Everyone thank you all for answering such a tough question to answer.

I'm way too old for the draft. My sons on the hand. Their is one that is still young enough for the draft. If the draft age remains 18-25 year men.

I really know his answer would be. He would run to another country if he could. We had this talk before. When we sat and talk talked to my uncles that were in the Vietnam war.

I'm not saying cowardice & or anything.

I would choose life over war. But like my uncles they were forced to go to Vietnam and fight.

I'm asking a choice to run or to fight. Not if their a Coward or anything. I rather have my sons at my Christmas table for dinner, then never them again.
