The better of this argument is not whether this draft should be enacted, or whether it's "cowardice" for someone not to comply with the draft, but to confront the plain concept behind an American draft.
Should the government have the right to send males into military against their will? If so, why not females?
I can't plausibly see how in a government reputable for its civil rights can still shelter a draft resolution. In fact, it seems unconstitutional. I wouldn't be surprised if sometime in my life the draft is made unconstitutional. You cannot take the liberty from anyone in this country, who justly does not deserve so, away.
The other argument is why put people against a war in the military? A military works best with volunteers and people committed to its purpose. Occupying a military with bitter and discrepant individuals will only secure more convulation and tension, then ease.
