I like the two years of active duty but I don't trust that the government will use the military properly.

Why would you say that?

Congress has ceded too much power to the presidency including the use of the military.

Not true with your president Donald John Trump.

Politics / Hot Mic Catches Trump’s 7-Word Message to Brother of Fallen Cop

This Thanksgiving, it’s important to remember all the things President Donald Trump has done for our country since he was elected in 2016.

The president has brought a sense of independence back to working families and has made patriotism cool again while promoting embattled police officers and unifying people around issues such as trade, intervention in foreign wars and criminal justice reform.

But often overlooked is the way Trump has succeeded at times in showing his softer side.

But a moment last year between Trump and the brother of a police officer killed in the line of duty, which occurred away from the mic, showed us who he is.

The president told Reggie Singh something that displayed his genuine care for people affected by the country’s disastrous immigration policies.

Polls, this time of year, and under the current circumstances, are a total waste of time. Just saying.

This poll is a total waste of time under any circumstance and any time of year.

Then come up with your own better poll.

Don't have to there are already enough polls out there. But this poll is as worthless as your attention-seeking ass. 

Now we know the OP is a much better pollster than you. 

Why is his poll as worthless as your always negative to Black people ass?

Restarting the military draft after more than four decades of an ­all-volunteer force would be complicated.

But it could be done.

One plan calls for young conscripts to have a choice: two years on active duty or six years in the reserves.

Either way, they’d first have to ­undergo basic training and job training.

If draftees want to go to college first, they must participate in a Reserve Officer Training Corps program and then serve.

If they fail or quit ROTC, they must then enlist.

Whichever option they choose, their obligation is fulfilled with a single combat deployment.

Those are some of the details ­proposed by retired Army Maj. Gen. Dennis Laich, one of the nation’s most aggressive advocates of abandoning the all-volunteer force in favor of a return to the draft.

He and others believe that current wars have stretched the military to its breaking point. More than a decade’s worth of bonuses and expanding benefits has brought personnel funding to its limits. Civilians are more disconnected from the military than at any time in history.

The retired two-star and his group, the All Volunteer Force Forum is asking: Is it time to end the more than four-decade experiment of the all-volunteer armed forces and reinstate conscription?

But key critics in military ranks and academia say today’s volunteer force is better educated, more diverse, more professional and capable than the military has ever been.

THIS IS FUNNY. MY NEIGHBOR TO THE LEFT IS A RETIRED FEMALE ARMY SERGEANT MAJOR.  MY NEIGHBOR TO THE RIGHT IS A RETIRED AIR FORCE E-8.  DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC BACK LAST  APRIL, I BOUGHT A M-4 CARBINE LOOK-ALIKE BB AIR RIFLE.  IN MY BACK YARD I WOULD SHOOT AT TARGETS I HAD PLACED ON MY BACK FENCE AS I DIDNT FEEL SAFE TO SHOOT AT THE LOCAL IN-DOOR WEAPONS RANGE.  WHEN EVER KIDS WERE PLAYING IN THEIR BACK YARDS BEHIND MY HOUSE, I DID NOT SHOOT THE AIR RIFLE.  NEVER MING THAT THE BBs WOULD NOT EVEN PENETRATE MY WOODEN FENCE.  THE RETIRED AIR FORCE E-8 COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHERE THE PLINKING SOUND WAS COMING FROM.  BEFORE I STARTED SHOOTING IN MY BACK YARD I DID MY RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT BB GUNS IN A HOUSING COMPLEX WERE PERFECTLY LEGAL, BUT NO FIREARMS OF A LARGER CALIBER WERE LEGAL IN A HOUSING DEVELOPENT.   THIS AIR FORCE E-8 WENT TO ALL OF MY NEIGHBORS TRYING TO FIND OUT WHO WAS SHOOTING A WEAPON.  I WAS WAITING ON HIM TO KNOWCK ON MY DOOR, BUT HE NEVER DID WHEN I WAS AT HOME.  TWO HOMES DOWN TO MY LEFT WAS A GUY WHO WAS A WEIGHT LIFTER AND EVERY DAY AT AROUND 6:00 YOU COULD FEEL  THE THUMP AND VIBRATIONB WHEN HE DROPPED HIS WEIGHTS TO HIS GARAGE FLOOR.  IT DIDN'T BOTHER ME, BUT THIS AIR FORCE E-8 COMPLAINED TO THE HOME OWNERS ASSOCIATION TO GET HIM TO STOP.  IT WAS NOT AT ALL THAT LOUD OR DISCOMFORTING. HE ASKED MY NEIGHBOR TO THE LEFT THE RETIRED ARMY SGM AND SHE TOLD HIM TO GET THE ph--k OUT OF HER FACE.  THE NEXT DAY SHE TOLD MY WIFE OF THE ENCOUNTER AND SAID SHE KNEW I WAS RETIRED ARMY AND THAT SHOOTING A BB GUN IN MY BACK YARD DIDN'T AT ALL CONCERN HER.  I SUBSEQUENTLY FOUND OUY THE POLITICAL AFFILIATIONS OF MY NEIGHBORS ON EACH SIDE.  I DON'T THINK I HAVE TO REVEAL THAT INFORMATION TO YOU.  HOOAH!!!

It won’t make the pages of “Architectural Digest” or the website “Houzz,” but the homeless “home” that city-contracted crews recently demolished and hauled away is nothing short of amazing.

Those crews say it is the largest single homeless structure they’ve cleared in Portland.

Portland's Homeless and Urban Camping Impact Reduction Program says it took a Rapid Response team six days and eight 30-yard dumpsters and more to haul away more than 31 tons of material.

Have no  clue who he is. However, make sure he gets the pardon 1st. Because we know how the bigot operates.

Biden will never pardon him.
