I am great at it, and thank you for noticing. As for the rest of your childish taunts, they are not worth a reply.
You'd put your own wife or daughter on the front lines?
Oop, sorry, just saw #120. You'd put your own daughter on the front lines?
I wouldn't. But feminist activists should be consistent on gender equality issues. If all their demands are valid, then all I advocate on this thread is also valid and just. Put the women on the front lines. Draft only women for awhile so they can pay reparations to men who have carried the burden of fighting and dying alone -- since this nation was founded. Shouldn't women pay for their gender guilt? Let men stay home and run the factories, and let the women sacrifice their lives for the next 200 years. Then we will be even.
BTW, I don't have a daughter; I have a son. If the draft were to return, I do not see why he should be drafted and put on the front lines when women do not have to do the same. That would be gender discrimination of the worst kind. If women want absolute equality, then that's equality. If gender doesn't matter, then it should not matter when the stakes are the highest. They should not be allowed to have it both ways.
Well, I'm anti-draft period, so you might be preaching to the choir. :-)
