Reply #60: Wow, that must've been intense.

I have a 14 yr old son who starts high school in the fall. Sometimes I worry about what the future holds for him, as a young man who is seen as cannon fodder by our government.

Long ago, when he was little, I started a Conscientious Objector file for him that has pics of him at all the various anti-war rallies we've attended and even a couple of newspaper clippings where he was quoted speaking out against war and violence.

I figure every little bit can only help.

If and when it ever comes to pass that there is a draft, I want to have something that proves he's had a history of being against that kind of bullshit.
