I'm sure Marsh already gets serviced by the nation on a regular basis

:conf:

Someone said oh yes I sure am and it sounds like one of Ava Max’s songs sksksk

Not National Service as it was, but maybe some form of community schemes for NEETs, to give then a boost of responsibility and self-worth.

Oh sksk I was actually concerned that was your response

:joker:

if by 'national service' you mean practicing ribbon-choreography to Ella Henderson's "Ghost" then yes

Not national service but certainly the borstal system should.

I kind of wished we’d had it when i was young.One thing I regret was never joining up.
I had mates who did.
Probably would’ve put me on the right path earlier too.

I think some form of national service might be better for young offenders , not sending them off to war or anything, but some form of it that would instill discipline and morals, because prison or the threat of clearly isn't working

:joker::joker:

I wear nappies for this reason.

What happens to the mentally ill or disabled?

Teach them hard work apparently

Nope.

Nothing sorts out disability like teaching them how to shoot a gun!!!

If it wasn’t for men being forced to do it back in the day they wouldn’t be able to hold a gun!

That’ll sort the little ****s right out won’t it :fist:

Yeah, them thugs out punching innocent people, SHOW 'EM OUT T'SHOOT 'EM!!!!

That’s not what I said at all :umm2: did you miss the bit where I said I instill morals and discipline, not sure shooting a gun comes into that

Yes ,this is my line of thinking , a bootcamp or similar to teach them the world does not owe them a living and some sort of education thrown in,lets face it a lot of thugs roaming round towns etc are pretty clueless and ignorant,NS was not all about shooting guns they were taught respect,manners and how to be a decent human being as many parents just let them run feral ,I looked at those soldiers the other day with pride,if the same were to happen today,God knows where we would be, they were just a different breed and some kids today need some guidance.

Well they wouldn't be called to do it would they?:shrug:

No.
Concentrate on good education and building confidence in our young.
