why dont countries at war just pump their criminals into the country theyre at war with? you literally drop your prison levels 90% and run the opposing country into poverty and crime
imagine if america threw every black prisoner into iraq. in 2 years we wouldnt even have a country left to fight
i genuinely dont understand why we arent doing this
because disobedient people who dont want to follow the rules will suddenly follow the rules of military

it would be possible if you have strict borders
but if you are at war you just can't control your borders
Cameron Evans
give them an incentive, they can conquer and keep the land that they do conquer and plus amnesty in that country and plus prisoners of whatever origin would get btfod against real killers like isis and shit, i would never do that shit and im a fit black guy

It's forbidden by article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention

Brayden Murphy
Because you fucking can't?
Imagine if a relative of yours went to prison for selling weed or something and got like two years in prison, and then you find out they are airdropping his ass into the middle of a terrorist village in the desert. Sounds a little fucked up now right?

Fuck off op we dixie boys will save pregnant Anne Frank from the dirlewanger gang. Real shit tho look up the SS unit Dirlewanger and tell me why we don't use convicts for military use.
Landon Torres
every other country on earth would rape us for doing this see above global sanctions guaranteed even if it's a good idea
Nicholas Young
>every other country on earth would rape us for doing this true, i hadnt thought of that repercussion

They would be getting killed without voluntary agreeing to the risks by conscripting to the army and signing contracts. Lawsuits would follow. Every death prisoner would cost the state a million dollar they would have to pay to the family.
Luis Walker
simply don't break the law, asshole
Evan Nelson
Convict battalions are hilariously unwell equipped for actual warfare.
