Fine, lets disband the armed forces and the police ( who suffer much the same treatment as the armed forces regarding pay and conditions in exchange for the largley superb service they provide) and see how long it takes before the country is under seige by various terrorist groups, and see how long it takes for the government ( not worthy of the name), the idiotic, immature, ill-educated students who proposed this policy, and the general populous to realize that they do in fact quite like having people willing to sacrafice anything from thier time to thier lives to watch over them, and who indeed through the ages have protected thier very right to exercise thier ill-chosen right of free speech...
