Whatever else he did, Ali was draft dodger

Muhammad Ali may have been a good boxer but he will always be a draft dodger as long as I live. I served five campaigns in Vietnam and one in Korea while he refused to do his duty for his country, stating that no Viet Cong ever call him the N word. He refused to do his duty for his country. When he refused, he should have been put behind bars. Nothing he did later in his life would make me change my mind about him. He was scared of getting killed, and he refused to do his duty for his country while the rest of us endured and did what was necessary for our country. No matter what he did, I put him almost in the same category as Jane Fonda.
