Conscription has now become law. Personally I dont feel that this is a good idea because laws that force people to do things that they do not want usually end disastorouly. It may not happen today but someday later on people will fight against it, people will disagree and eventually they will no longer hold their silence. I may be a lawyer but I do not always agree with the law. The law often looks at the situation of a large group of people and the exceptions are usually vague, for example a disabled man is excused from war. How about a man that is the sole provider for his family, or a man with an undiagnosed physical or mental condition? In our times medicne and such are not that advanced and not all situations are diagnosed. What happens to those who's dissabilities fall through the cracks?
Forcing people in to the war when they did not intend to is not a good idea. Think about it, there is a reason this person is resisting. If someone who is afraid to go to war is forced to what good will they be? Fear is a very strong emotion and sending them is potentially endangering the other soldiers. Laws like this plant seeds of hate into peoples hearts and hate can go a long way. I just wish the government would think ahead before they finalize these types of descision, that would be best.
