How is it not slavery? Is it voluntary? No. It's forced labor at best, forced killing and dying at worst.

Was the forced labor inflicted on African-Americans under your definition, slavery? No

Were folk captured by the Athenians and sold to other folk for labor, slaves, under your definition? No

Were women kidnapped by the Turkish Sultan's agents and forced into sex, slaves, under your definition? No

Incase you dont know, if one refuses to go to the military you can alternatevly do "Civil Service" in Austria. Thats basically working for the ambulance.
Ps.: You get paid for it.

So you get to choose your forced labor? Also , so what if you get paid? "Sorry we had you kill someone, made you see your friends die, gave you poisoning, and stole years of your life away, but here's some money."

I doubt as conscripted you have to kill people....

con·scrip·tion
kənˈskripSH(ə)n/
noun
compulsory enlistment for state service, typically into the armed forces.

The armed forces don't go around planting flowers, that's what I can tell you, little Austrian patriot.

^
Currently Austria isnt really fighting any (major) wars... so we send professional soldiers instead of unexperienced conscripted.

So you have a draft for what exactly then? It's not beneficial to the folk of the country, it's still forced labor if not forced murder, and Austria isn't going to be invaded by anyone.

^
Why do you even care then? There are much closer countries to you with conscription. Like Mexico (sorry Trump), Russia or China.
The sole purpose of conscription in Austria is to teach every man how to operate a weapon and the basic understanding of military tactics incase of a national crysis.
Unlike you warmongering America we arent killing people just for the lulz.

Why do I care? Because evil ideas like conscription made the twentieth century a hellscape. Millions of folk were forced into fighting and millions were killed, needlessly and in the name of collective defense. And I don't give a care about what tax farm a human is from, I care about what they think, because what folk think will change the world regardless of where they're from, Mexico or Austria. And currently, this collectivism threatens to turn the twenty first century into yet again another battlefield with millions dead. Oh wait, it already has.

the draft works out for austria

the ppl consented to having a draft system

leave them alone

and stop ignoring me u twat

Sorry we had you kill someone, made you see your friends die, gave you poisoning, and stole years of your life away

What the hell do you think they are doing in draft?

Lets stop conscripting guys ! ''Few years later'' ENEMY IS COMING ! QUICK THROW STONES AT THEM

You never convinced anyone about why guns are good, and if you had a little more sense, you would simply ban guns to individuals (as most of them do not know how to use them) and also ban guns to the police, the army and anything related to the state.
Gun ban for everybody.

So how exactly are you going to enforce that ban? Who's going to go around taking guns? And how are the going to be successful?

u start small

u concentrate on legal gun ownership

u start with legal applications

u look at mental health of these applicants

look at em close

and thats how u would have prevented a dylan roof

then u get think tanks to find ways to reduce the amount of illegal fire arm ownership

plus u reduce the influence of the NRA

lets do these things first then consider how to get rid of more guns later

mmm waco iz rite KAZOOO

+1 waco kazzooooooo (Seriously though I agree with what he's saying)

^ you know you've lost when you agree with Waco

or you know you could actually argue the points that i have made

it doesnt matter who gives a position. the idea/logic/reasoning still holds the same

a hobo telling you that 2 + 2 = 4 will be true even if its from a hobo

Well alright.

u concentrate on legal gun ownership

u start with legal applications

The US already does that to a degree. What we need is to all individually support better parenting.

then u get think tanks to find ways to reduce the amount of illegal fire arm ownership

There's no plausible way to decrease the guns in America to near zero , regardless of the think tank's abilities.

plus u reduce the influence of the NRA

The NRA has trafficked little to now weapons to cartels, dictatorial regimes or gangs in America. The democrats or republicans though? Hah, they're much more guilty of trafficking guns to bad folk. Ban them before you ban folk like the NRA.
