> I'm very glad that Young Americans (at the time) protested the Vietnam War making it clear to the US Military that they couldn't willy-nilly start wars whenever they want to.

As am I. I'm not criticizing war protest. I'm criticizing not contributing to military technology.

> You cannot, and should not, be forcing people to do what they do not want.

No one is forcing anyone to do anything. I'm criticizing them for making their choice. They remain free to make it.
