airdvr 200 #4 June 4, 2016 He lived a great life. I can remember when boxing was big I laid in my bed listening to a live radio broadcast of the "Thrilla in Manila" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrilla_in_Manila. I kind of chuckled when his daughter referred to him as a"mountain of humble". I can think of many words to describe Ali. That wouldn't have been my first choice. Please don't dent the planet.

akarunway 1 #8 June 5, 2016 Cousin gets drafted. Comes back seriously wounded, physically and mentally. Ali draft dodges and makes lifetime 57 mil. Also states he hates whites.

kallend 1,651 #9 June 5, 2016 akarunwayCousin gets drafted. Comes back seriously wounded, physically and mentally. Ali draft dodges and makes lifetime 57 mil. Good for Ali. Maybe if everyone had refused to be drafted the USA wouldn't have lost some 54,000+ young men in a pointless war that only served to enrich the stockholders of defense contractors, demoralized the US military for decades, and achieved nothing of strategic value to the USA.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FUCK HIM He didn't "dodge" the draft. He refused. And paid the price. He didn't run off to Canada. He didn't have his rich and influential daddy find him a cushy spot in the National Guard. He didn't use a college deferment (not that any of these options were really available to him). He publicly stated that he wouldn't go. And was tried, convicted, and sentenced. He appealed the conviction all the way to the Supreme Court, where it was overturned."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
