I had to register after leaving the Army. Was on a draft board during the Bush 41 administration.

A Surprising Number Of Men In Washington State Aren’t Registered For The Draft. That’s A Felony

Another little time-bomb left by Obama.

[Celerity]

A draft is a draft.

This is a mandatory program where you must, under penalty of law, volunteer. That’s just strange.

I never understood the value of the SS registration.

[Tennessee Nana]

Yeah theres a lot of illegal aliens living in Washington state...

why would they bother to do something legally required ???

[kaehurowing]

Someone should sue to force women to register. That might change their tune about equal rights.

[Tennessee Nana]

Immigrants who don’t register can also lose their opportunity to become U.S. citizens later on

[SkyPilot]

Obama didn't register either, and then released a forgery of his Selective Service registration.

[MichaelCorleone]

What difference, at this point, does it make?

[Snickering Hound]

Or just eliminate the Selective Service System.

No one has been drafted in 45 years, there’s another federal agency that can go away.

[WASCWatch]

I’m not surprised.

[PAR35]

Quick solution. Conscript all of the non-registrants. Pay them a dollar a day, and get rid of the high priced service contractors.

Defending freedom with indentured servants. Great.

[I want the USA back]

It’s a law that applies to men only. I want to know if they will prosecute a man who does a “Bruce Genner”?

[a fool in paradise]

One of the dodgers will run for president one day.

[ealgeone]

I’m from a poor area and me and my buddies all signed up when we hit 18.

[onona]

How much money would we save by not requiring registration ?

[mikefive]

I never registered either, as I was 17 when I first went into the Army. Later in my career when i was doing paperwork to get a TS security clearance, I had to list my selective service number. I went to their website, and I was already registered and had a number assigned to me.

I have to think that advertising is a part of the problem. The only place I've seen a poster is in the Post Office, and how many millennials see the inside of those places? Maybe something in social media?

My late Dad used to love to tell the story about how he was summoned to the local Draft board to explain why he hadn't registered. He was a Major at the time and showed up in uniform. He had joined the Army in 1937, when he was 17, or so he had told them then. He'd lied about his age, he was only 16, and two wars later he finally had to 'fess up.

[JimRed]

I had to register after leaving the Army.

As did I, after my service in the Navy. I enlisted at 17, before I was required to register.

[JimRed]

Federal officials say nearly one out of six young men in Washington state are committing a felony, and they might not even know it.

Their crime? Not registering for a nonexistent military draft.

Should we hazard a guess at the political leanings of the violators?

[DNME]

Along with draft registration, we should renew the old practice of militia musters on the village green.

Drills, target practice, lectures on law and procedures. Oh yeah! Bring back some American history and community involvement!
