no..he was a draft dodger...plain and simple.....Above all of these things...he's not muslim, christian, catholic, lutheran, pentacostal, etc....He was/is American!!!!!!!! and if you want to have all the rights and freedoms this country offers then when it comes time for you to due your part YOU DO IT!! And if you then choose to deny your country when it asks for your help then you deserve to go to jail and anything else that goes with it.. That is the bottom line.
thats a little harsh, where is true freedom when you are being force to do something you don't want no part of. and worst your taken to jail, which is basically taking your freedom anyways. nowadays are better theres no draft, we don't need it, volunteers are good enough. but in another point of view maybe a draft was neccesary back then. i'm just glad i'm in this generation not the past.
