With the recent spate of stabbings, there's been a lot of talk of re-introducing National Service or conscription for teenagers caught up in youth crime.
However, I can't help but wonder whether military conscription would just dilute the quality of our finely-tuned war machine. I mean, would we actually want the ones that are dumb enough to get caught? Fucking idiots would be giving away their position the whole time. Yoo-hoo...
And what would conscription do to the selection criteria?
Two good GCSEs OR
One example of smashing a pensioner's head in with a brick.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I still think we should make them join the army.
Just as ammunition.
