Mandatory military service

What do you think? Folks in Scandinavia are just crazy about it, I hear.

Calm down folks.  I think I was the one who started this whole thing by saying I support gun safety and educational programs.  I am against mandatory military service, as this would be unconstitutional.  The 13th (I think)? Amendment prohibits involuntary servitude, after all.  That said, I'm against mandatory military service... but I do think it would be a good idea to encourage responsible firearms ownership here and teach safety classes - much like the Swiss do in their country.  I would suggest possibly teaching such classes in high schools - just make sure they are done under close supervision and make sure that proper security and safety measures are taken.  This is not mandatory military service... and it wouldn't involve forcing anyone into the military or forcing them to go fight and or die in any war.
