Remember that time I was about to perform life-saving surgery, but I was asked to hang up second hand clothes in a charity shop instead so I didnt.

I think it would be a good idea to sign up the unruly young people and repeat offenders. It could instil some discipline and respect into them. Also it may learn them how to take responsibility for their own actions.

Life isn't like Suicide Squad, throwing criminals into armed service is just a bad idea all round.

I think some would certainly benefit from it but I don't think it should be forced.

Matthew. · 26-03-2018, 07:31 PM

no **** that

what an awful idea

Eddie. · 27-03-2018, 02:45 PM

There's national service where I live, and its compulsory, I certainly had no interest in doing this at all, worst two years in my life.

So for the UK, hell no!

Compulsory indoctrination to unquestioning obedience of authority figures?

Is there a stronger word for "no"?

Marsh. · 26-03-2018, 09:37 PM

Wait, so they get to decide when they get a year of their life taken away from them for no possible reason?

On the whole old people are more disrespectful than the young though? Especially to shop workers etc.

It's a massive waste of time, you're either forcing people to delay their lives (and potentially end/ruin them) with military service or with pointless busy work in the guise of charity. It's utterly pointless either way.

You can't see what's up with forcing people to give up a year of their lives to do something they probably don't want to do, or even worse, will not be able to handle it?

Charity work for the right people in the right places would instill respect.

And it's a complete fantasy if you think that you could find enough placements in meaningful charity work for everyone who would be forced to do it. People would just end up in a charity shop for a year of their lives and they would have nothing to show for it.
