Criminals with guns, I think not. |

I don't mind getting rid of our jailed ones. But you trust them with weapons? Or possibly attacking
each other. Criminals normally withdraw into races |

This would be a really bad idea. Giving criminals weapons and training them is practically a death
sentence for the instructors. Plus they have more opportunity to escape. |

Death to all proven criminals. All they do is sit in their cells and take government money for them
to survive. They help nothing and hurt us. |

This is ridiculous ,ie lock em up and throw away the key ,maybe it would be a good idea to get a
violent criminal ,give him a gun ,and a target , and send him to a foreign land he is sure to make
a great soldier ,any way with a leader like bush America has a criminal ,in charge of the army
,with his illegal war ,try the bafoon for war crimes ,i say |

Do you honestly think they would go and fight?!
No, most of them would end off running away anyways. |

A remarkably bad idea which shows a contempt for foreign life. You don't think criminals would abuse
the authority that a military occupation gives them to commit crimes against the indigenous
population? There are many reports of Iraqis being robbed at checkpoints and in searches of their
house.
The incident which involved the rape and murder of an teenage Iraqi girl and all of her family by
American soldiers was instigated by an American criminal who has been sent to Iraq in lieu of being
sent to jail. It is fictionalized in the film Redacted. |

A person that has proven to be violent against his own people should not be unleashed through war on
another people. Prisoners now play a role in manufacturing things needed by the Armed services, this
is as involved as they should get in our military affairs. The Armed services pride themselves on
their military superiority to others, having convicts in our military will set an awful precedent
for the rest of the militarized world. Imagine if a tyrannical regime opens the prisons of their
country to join their party that is already violent and corrupt, surely adding convicted felons to
their group would not be a good thing for anyone. |

NO, the military requires discipline, teamwork and the ability to depend on the people next to you.
Most of the time, I have the experience, you are more concerned about the colleague net to you than
you are about anything else. Putting criminals within the military just moves the problems from
prison to the battlefield plus further segregates our standing in the world since we would see even
more war crimes. |

Criminals should be sent to prison and not to Iraq, or to any other country. The notion that the US
can just ship hardened criminals to other countries is absurd. Additionally, people with a history
of serious crime would be completely unreliable when it comes to following military orders in a
distant, foreign country, and would probably be detrimental to the American war effort in Iraq. The
US needs more professional, reliable and mentally stable soldiers; the incidents of torture at the
Abu Ghraib prison clearly underline this point.
In many ways, the US army already tends to attract people with limited educational or work
experience and this has left a mark on the American military, as well as how it is perceived by
others. Sending off people convicted of violent crimes to essentially serve their sentence abroad,
in a war zone, would further tarnish America's image on the world stage. |
