[QUOTE="Oh Shoot, post: 2210373, member: 48033"] As far as Muhammad Ali goes, the man is dead. Hopefully he made right with his creator before he passed. Since for some reason his "draft dodging" has become a topic of discussion, let's discuss it. He refused it. If you want to say he was a hero for refusing an unrighteous war, then you also have to admit that all the others that fought were heroes for fighting. Most people didn't fight because they believed the Vietnam war was a righteous conflict. They agreed to go over and have their buddies' asses. To watch over them and make sure it was one soldier safer for their pal. If Muhammad Ali wasn't bad for refusing the draft, the others were at least better men for protecting each other; something that seemed to slip his "righteous" conscience. [/QUOTE]
