How To Avoid the Draft Or National Service

No dodging. Just refuse to volunteer. Here's how -- 

I hope that you will not be offended if I tell you how the "draft" 
works. I realize that most people THINK they know how it works, but 
in most cases they are in error. And you can avoid the worry 
when 'College and Canada will not be options [because] in December 
2001, Canada and the U.S. signed a "smart border declaration," which 
could be used to keep would-be draft dodgers in.'

Being willing (and eager) to fight for one's country when it is truly 
in danger is one thing. Having the courage to refuse to fight in 
immoral and/or unconstitutional "wars" is quite another matter, I 
believe. No need to "dodge" the ball if they're not allowed to hit 
you with it, if you merely 'take your stand' and refuse to VOLUNTEER!

1. Mr. A receives a "draft notice" and is told to report on a certain 
date to a certain place where he receives his physical and mental 
tests...then he is classified with a number indicating whether he is 
A1(first called).

..all the way down to 4F(unfit for duty).

2. Mr.A is told that he is to report for "induction" into the 
military and to appear at a certain military base for that purpose on 
a date specified.

3. By "LAW" he must appear there...or a warrant for his arrest will 
be issued.

4. Assuming he reports as directed he will have another brief 
physical and tests and then is told to "line up on the yellow line 
(painted on the floor)

5. A Recruiting Officer will then tell all those "joining the army 
(or whatever)to take one step forward...

(Oh, oh, THOSE WHO DID THIS JUST "VOLUNTEERED!")This is done so that 
no one can "legally" claim they were "forced into involuntary 
servitude!" 

"RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND AND SWEAR ALLEGIANCE." (almost everyone 
does!...thinking it must be REQUIRED!): "I, (name) do solemnly swear 
that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the Constitution of the 
United States of America and will defend it against all enemies 
foreign and domestic, and will obey the orders of the President and 
the officers appointed over me, so help me God."

6. Those who "voluntarily" stepped forward CANNOT NOW CLAIM THEY 
WERE "DRAFTED"...they stepped forward voluntarily and took the Oath 
voluntarily!

7. Assume Mr. B was smarter than Mr. A and HE DID NOT STEP FORWARD 
ANDTHEREFORE DID NOT TAKE THE OATH OF ALLEGIANCE. (the recruiter will 
probably say something like this: "what's the matter with you, don't 
you know what' step forward' means?" Mr. B responds, "sure I do, but 
I AM NOT VOLUNTEERING TO SERVE IN THE MILITARY...If you want me you 
must 'take me' against my will by force!"

8. All of those who "volunteered" will now be excused from the 
room...and the Mr. B will be cajoled with persuasive arguments...at 
first...then, when nothing works to change his mind he will be called 
names and insulted, possibly even assaulted by one or more military 
people present there as witnesses.

9.IF Mr. B does not weaken, stands his ground, eventually the 
tormentors will give up and have him arrested on some charge. 
However, there is NO lawful way that they can MAKE him go into the 
military...because of the Constitutional prohibition 
against "involuntary servitude"...which is why NO ONE IS TRULY 
EVER "DRAFTED" AND MUST BE "SEDUCED " INTO VOLUNTEERING!

One thing to say at this point is what the cops are coached to say on 
the witness stand: "Am I ordered?"

If the recruiter says No, then obviously you're OK. If the recruiter 
says Yes, then "By what authority do you, a military officer, order 
me, a civilian?" If the recruiter says anything else, repeat the 
question until you get Yes or No.

If the recruiter says "I order you by the authority of the United 
States Government" then "Which clause of the Constitution gives you, 
a military officer, to order me, a civilian?"

Another thing to say is: "Am I free to go?" If the recruiter says 
Yes, then obviously leave. If the recruiter says No, then "Am I under 
arrest?

Am I your prisoner? Am I kidnapped? If I'm not free, then what am I?" 
and again, keep repeating the question.

Another thing to say is: "I want an attorney."

Another thing to say is, of course, nothing at all. I think I would 
go with "Am I free to go?" because if you get to Yes, then you can 
leave and he would look bad ordering an arrest. If you ask the 
question three times and don't get a yes or no, then "Well I must be 
free to go, because I asked you three times and you won't tell me I'm 
not." Then I would slowly turn around and leave, and if he keeps 
trying to interact I would just keep repeating the question.

=== Here's an excerpt from a book:

The Army induction officer instructed the draftees to "take one step 
forward" as their names were called, and said that step would signify 
their induction into the Army. When reluctant Willie's name was 
called, he answered present, but did not step forward. After the 
ceremony, he went home instead of to camp. When the MP's came for 
him, he went to court for a writ of habeas corpus to retain his 
freedom. "The officer himself," Willie argued, "said the step forward 
is what would make me a soldier. As I didn't take the step, I'm still 
a civilian and the Army has no claim on me."

Counsel for the Army replied, "The Army isn't being run by childish 
games. Willie and a hundred others appeared to be inducted, and he was
inducted before the whole group as any fool there could plainly see." 
Willie retained his civilian status. The court ruled that the draft 
law required some definite ceremony to transform a civilian into a 
soldier. As the Army decided to have one step forward constitute the 
ceremony, and Willie didn't take the step, he wasn't a soldier. U.S. 
Court of Appeals, 1954
