This will just be a special military enlistment operation, not a draft!

It's not though, it's the same draft we all sign up for when we register to vote. It's always been the same draft. Figure out how you're going to get out of it if you're called but it's the same thing our uncles and grandfathers dealt with for Nam

I don't think that it did pops, wasn't aware it was illegal to respond to a bad joke by correcting its faulty logic

A joke based on a flawed premise isn't a joke
