A male-only registration is illegal and unconstitutional. I hear the annoying ads on my local radio reminding males to register. If women want “equality” they need to be held to the same laws and standards as men.
We’ll send the kids to Canada if it gets crazy like that.
No way I’m letting my daughters die in a Fallujah for no damned good reason. Or come home so damaged they’ll never marry and have children.
I’m fine with the male-only draft, as long as women continue to be barred from direct combat roles. Otherwise...Sign Uncle Sam’s dotted-line, sweethearts.
You do realize most women don’t want to be in combat roles. Only the bull dykes who want promotion so they can get it ‘checked’ off the ‘to do list’.
It will be used as population control should we draft young people again. The Duggar and Bates daughters will get sent to Fallujah. Obama bundler daughters will be doing PR back stateside.
Are those tanks?
I would love to hear R. Lee Ermy’s “welcome to the Corps” speech to a barracks full of women...(Full Metal Jacket).
Most women don’t want to be in combat personally, but ask many a 20-something ditz if they think women are capable of it, and they’ll say absolutely. Unfortunately, forcing women to register for the draft (or seriously threatening it) might be the best way to deliver a reality-check and stop this insanity.
You must know different women than me then. I don’t know any 20 somethings who want to ‘make war’.
Then again, I’m surrounded by rural conservative women. Who are the very ones that will get sent to die in hellholes while the women you know will have it easy stateside.
A few weeks of remedial PT will whip them into shape.
Great! So, I can now look forward to my grand-daughter being drafted into a foxhole in one of Americas stoopid and endless future wars just so a tiny few Liberals can “feel good”.
Millions of men were subject to it.
Remedial? Primordial?
And now, we have this thing called ‘technology’ that means none of our young people need to.
What we need to change are the rules of engagement.
But it’s more facile for the eugenecists and population control wackjobs to just kill off young people from the ‘wrong’ demographic.
Which, I suspect, has been the whole point of our wars since WWII.
Including myself but if I had my choice we would turn back military policy on women to WWII norms.
That said, I agree too with one freeper who commented essentially that women being drafted could be the only reality check left for lefties.
“Great! So, I can now look forward to my grand-daughter being drafted into a foxhole in one of Americas stoopid and endless future wars just so a tiny few Liberals can “feel good”.”
In a word, yes. We little people exist merely to pay taxes and as toys for their social experiments.
“Remedial? Primordial?”
From the look of them, original. I can’t imagine that either one of them has engaged in anything more strenuous than popping the top of a Pringles can.
........yes, but “we little people” rose up and changed things back in the 1770’s and 1860’s and 1960’s. Sadly, I think that is getting to be where we are headed in this 21st century America.
I see no way extreme violence on a massive scale with the Left can be avoided because they will keep pressing, and pressing and pressing.
Illustrations of this un-relenting pressure abound with the “wedding cake” incident being perhaps the most outrageous of all.
