Republicans for Forced Military Service

June 12, 2024

Writes Michael Johnson:

Mr. Rockwell,

Whether it is forced military service for teenagers/young adults, a military draft OR whatever other enslavement the State dreams up for its citizens (and non-citizens), these efforts should always and appropriately include the “involuntary servitude” moniker — you know, the one found in Amendment XIII.

“Where is it written in the Constitution, in what section or clause is it contained, that you may take children from their parents and parents from their children, and compel them to fight the battle in any war in which the folly or the wickedness of government may engage it?” — Daniel Webster
