If we had to come out and pay the families of every soldier killed by friendly fire this nation would be in even worse financial shape than it already is. War is a nasty thing and people get caught in the cross fire. They should ask them selves what would Pat want, I think he would understand what happened was not intentional.I don't agree with the cover up but don't think it is as bad as other things that happen during the course of a war.That is a horrible reason to excuse these people or any people who would cover something like this up. If I were Pat, a man who gave up his career to serve his country, I would want the people who stopped me from doing that held accountable. Dudes die of friendly fire ALL THE TIME. It's called war. STFU Tillman family and accept the consequence of your son's decision.As for the rest of you, ya, we should have a fracking draft, and there should be NO exceptions for college students, income levels, or any other non-medical excuse. Let's see how we all like the idea of war then.is this a joke? Nope. I think we should draft the people who fight in wars. It would take an act of god to get us into them then. No one would want to risk it for stupid reasons...which I think would be a pleasant change.

you're kidding yourself if you think a draft would change who serves in the military, or for that matter, who serves in the worst areas during wartime. the haves would either a) not get drafted or b) serve their time in a non-combat role/theater
every comment that is ingnoring the fact that the military lied about his death is totally missing the point...and its teh point to why the Tillman's are pretty pissed about it. I would be too.I think they've accepted that their son is gone...but the blatant disregard for accountability, truth, and loyalty in our military is unacceptable.

A draft, even one with no exemptions, wouldn't effect running into a war. "Oh, the President of GlobalCorp's son got drafted? Ooops, I lost that number, guess he didn't" OR "Hey son of President of Global Corp, enjoy your tour of duty at Hanscom"

Knew I was never going to play professionally so I chose to concentrate on books, boobs, and booze instead. Though it was probably not in that order.*edit- I probably wasn't good enough to play D1 at all, but they didn't really lose anything by giving me a spot on the roster. Didn't cost them a dime and I helped with the team's academic numbers.
