Just a summation in poetic form, that I think would help solve the war problem over in Iran or Iraq. Just my opinion of course.

I Have An Idea
(That Just Might Work)

I have come up with an idea
That just might work,
Bring our troops home
So no more will get hurt.
Our prisons are over run
With death row inmates and the like,
How about train them
And put them to war to fight.

Give them the promise
That if they survive,
Nothing will be misconstrued
Or contrived.
Their life will be reprieved
If they chose to do so,
It will save the taxpayers money
If we let them go.

We are, as taxpayers
Paying for their meals they eat,
We are the ones
Going down in defeat.
Why let them sit in a cell
When they could be used elsewhere,
For the ones that they killed
They didn't show any care.

I know killing isn't right
But if we have to go to war,
Why not use the ones in jail
And let them settle the score?
No more paying of medical bills
Or supplying them with meals,
Let them serve a purpose
If they agree to the deals.

I believe that also
It will influence others that see,
If they commit a crime
Then war is where they'll be.
This is my own opinion
So how do you feel?
Do you think it will work
If we give them a deal?

They tried it once
in a movie I saw
They took the soldiers
that broke the law.

They trained them well,
and gave them ammo
They took on Krauts
and they went BLAMMO !!

The Dirty Dozen was the flick
And in my mind
the theory did stick.

And they should do it again today. I can see Oddball steering the tank now.

It would be great if it could work!! I have many friends over in Iraq right now and worry everyday about them. If we are paying for the criminals anyway why not let them fight the war? :wink:

Well we are Tazzy. Us taxpayers are paying for them to eat well, medical bills, for their exercise equipment, tv's and all of it, just so they can sit there while waiting on their time to die. It's a shame we have to pay the Government for all that when we could be using that money to send them to war and bring home our men to train them and let them go in their place.

Great idea for exception of one. What happens when better trained killers come home when their done. Free they will be to walk amongst my children and me? What has changed in their contempt? What will stop them from an attempt? The law didn't in the beginning and won't in the end and when their on your door step will you be prepared to defend? Free better killers scary thought.

WOW - incredible idea----only thing I would do differently is that IF THEY SURVIVE the war would be then to return them to jail/prison, the "deal" having been to take them off death row....that way if they do survive, they are not back out on the streets causing further harm to innocent people.........glasses

yes, that is a good enough deal
for the real corrupt crooks ...
not releasing them into the community


but i do know that some people
are in there for only pot possession ...

i don't think the laws should be so strict

for people who are non violent &
for those who are not sex predators

The war in Iraq is criminal but once we sent troops, we were committed to stay. You can't expect deviant types of people to obey a sentence to fight. They would escape. They would continue to do as they please. There is no honor among such people. That is why they committed their crimes in the first place. The dirty dozen was a movie.

I think it is a great idea. They should earn their own way instead of us paying it for them. They committed the crime, they need to do the time and the time should be spent over there fighting for their right to be free.
