Voluntarily?
Well you have three "choices", as a male:
1) Go to the military(less than one year, I think it was 9 months)
2) Say you are a pacifist or something(you actually have to write a paper about your reasons why you don't want to go to the military), if approved do "civil service" for the same ammount of time as you would spend in the military
3) Be not healthy enough for the military(back problems and such get you out)

As a female you don't have to do anything, of course. But however, if you want you still can do a year of civil service, or join the military. Just don't have to.

Yeah i guess the term 'voluntary conscription' doesn't really make sense, i just picked the term up off my german friend as he calls it that. He wiped old people's asses instead of joining the army.

I would get kicked out of the german army for inappropriate humor.

I believe in the Castle doctrine, however there is no evidence to prove that it has any type effect on overall crime . In fact since firearms are so ubiquitous in Florida you stand a better chance of being fatally shot during a crime in that particular state. I know from first-hand experience because I used to live in Orlando Florida. I always thought it was strange since firearms are so easy to procure they inevitably fell into the hands of people that have no business handling them. You have a lot of dumb people in Florida walking around with the mentality that since they have a firearm.... If anyone messes with them they can and should use it. When in reality this is not the case, any time you get entangled with any state's criminal justice system, there is a chance that things could go South on you.

So before you're thinking about going all "call of duty" on someone, you better be damn sure that this is an appropriate situation to use lethal force. Because you could face serious legal repercussions such as jail time or you could be sued in civil court by the guys family.

Actually, considering sleepwalking is considered automatism, and therefore they do not have the requisite mens rea for the offence, it would be impossible for them to be guilty of murder under any legal system which relies on these values. This includes the US, which shares many features with the UK legal system.

Honestly, you've taken a step too far in this argument..

Why has a five and a half year old thread, itself derailed, been resurrected from the dust it deserved to collect?

Bringing the discussion back the china issue. True, China has a big army, but they have a bigger economy and europe is broke. Rather than invading, they would just buy France and/or Germany. Hell, Greece is on sale right now.
