THIN people and vegans are being allowed to dodge national conscription by the Swiss army – but it will take users of cannabis and Ecstasy.

Under rules issued this week, people cannot serve if they eat no animal products or if they are of average height and weigh less than 8st.

Conscripts who smoke marijuana, take Ecstasy or drink regularly will be allowed in if they can prove they are not addicted.

Politician Josef Lang said: “Half the male population will now become vegans.”

If you don't kill a cow to eat it, how can you kill a man to defend your country?

Meat is needed for active service to fuel the body and build killer muscels.

 

[Hammilton]

damn muscels.

 

[guikidagain]

the swiss have an army?

rather the other way round? who doesn't want to cheat military service?

lots of people? people who maybe want the expierence of it? People who like their country over all, and want to defend it. (even fi you disagree with some of your countries rules, I bet most of us who live in the "west" are very happy that its the way it is, and not a theocracy instead...)

Hell yeah I'd join the army if my country were being attacked.

No way in hell am I joining to be shipped off and killed in another country.

There's a difference between defence and offence.

No mate- its:

you lose.

 

[dopefiend]

Probably because special diets are harder to cater to? Just a guess, not meant to offend any of our vegan brothers or sisters. I'm sure there would be an easy way around that.

how much is a stone?

14lbs.

I have yet to meet a vegan that would intimidate me whatsoever, I'm sure the time will come though. I can't see why they won't allow them in the military, hell the Swiss are not exactly known for their military power.

^My ex is vegan.. wait.. she's not scary

You win.
