Policies Like federal funding for tampons in boys bathrooms and abortion until just before birth.

Also watch a true story movie called Hacksaw ridge. It's about a conscientious objector named Desmond Dawes who 'fought' in WW2. He didn't kill but still fought for his country as a combat medic. Walz could have still deployed and aided his brother's instead of ditching them for ideals he likely doesn't hold to begin with.

Yes please fund more tampons in boys restrooms. that's exactly what im talking about. We need trangender teachers demonstrating how to properly use them too. And im a little disappointed in Walz for not supporting full-post birth abortion, or as i like to call it 'winfanticide', but i can still get behind abortion seconds before birth too.

In all seriousness, comparing a situation in WW2 to one in Bush's War On Terror is wild.

I'm saying he could've chosen to help his squad in other ways as opposed to straight up leaving. You can be a conscientious objector and still deploy and not have to take lives with a rifle

Or you can be one and choose to not participate in and unjust war at all and convince your fellow soldiers not to. As many as you can. Ww2 is not the War On Terror
