Would you join the unit? (Time out:0 days after 01-03-2003, 19:33)
Yes I'll join - the goverment knows what it's doing, it's for the safety of my children.
No - this is wrong, they are the same as me, kill me if you want but I am not doing this!
Say - Yes but try to run away from the country at first possible opportunity.
Say No - kill the messenger and start a guerilla opposition to your government in order to save the country from the fascist dictators!

And soldiers that take the mayor's requests can also refuse.

Given that I've never actually killed anyone before, and don't know if I ever could, I honestly don't know. I'd like to say I'd do option #4, but it's entirely possible that I'd do option #2.

What about people that are so apathetic that they'd just go "Meh"?

I'd either ignore it (and continue school) or just say "naaaah, I'm OK".

Sure I'd join. I'd rather such a unit be made up of normal people like me as opposed to racist kooks who might actually obey an order to kill them, or even independently try to kill them in the wake of the rage the country would be feeling.

I assume you meant to say that the government assures you that the Muslims would be treated fairly.

In that case I'll pick two, but as a pacifist. I'll refuse to submit, but I would not instigate armed revolution.

I'm against 4 for the same reasons as Boris. Why kill someone in order to protect the rights of another? Seems backwards.

He's not just a supporter; he's an active agent for immoral government activities, and a recruiter for your enemy. He's both a legitimate target as part of a campaign to protect the populace from tyranny and also a legitimate military target for his role in recruiting.




You put it much better than I did.

Well yes the government would give such assurance if you can believe them it's up to you to decide, as usual, yes and if you refuse to submit I am not saying the gov will execute you, you could go in jail too depending on where you live, it is the choice of some sort of punishent vs. listening to the gov.

Do not forget this all is after national emergency so it might even make sense to many people. As for rounding up musilms let's say that Al Quaeda has taken over the responsibility for detonating the nuke.

Put an end to popups!

Is it just me or is there actually no mention in the initial question of who the perpetrators are? What if the nuclear bomb was launched by North Korea, and Muslims have nothing to do with it?
Everyone seems to have jumped to one hell of a conclusion...

If your government declared a "state of emergency" after a nuclear bomb exploded in a biggest city in your country, and told you to join the unit which will collect all the muslims in the town because they present a "terrorist" threat and send them in a " containment camp" (and you are guranteed that they will be treated fairly there) - would you do it, or refuse and risk being jailed or executed as a traitor?


yes, i'd do it at the drop of a hat. and you could even delte this line:
