Pentagon Recommends Requiring Women to Sign Up for Draft
Breitbart ^ | October 26, 2017 | Katherine Rodriguez

Posted on 10/27/2017 6:55:03 AM PDT by C19fan

The Pentagon recommended that women be required to register for the draft to boost military enrollment, according to a Defense Department report addressed to Congress. The report, obtained by the Washington Times, said the Selective Service System would increase enrollment by 11 million people if the U.S. required women to sign up for the draft.

Excellent post! It's always interesting to me (and sad) that the young men who die in our endless wars always leave children behind. We are killing off the men who actually want and cherish children and, therefore, future generations. Meanwhile, the 1% often have no children or produce one snowflake in a lifetime.

What draft? We have a volunteer military. We don’t need to start registering all women for draft status. Its totally unnecessary. Its just more PC driven BS.

I raised my daughter to be a woman, not a grunt. I’ll raise arms against any SOB that says they have come to take her and make her one.

And shame on Mattis. All mouth. Supports crap like this and homos, then dragging his feet on Trumps tranny order. Never married and has no kids. I’ll just be polite and leave it at that.

Shameful.

When you carry a bowling ball in your body for 9 months and then push it out through your vajajay then we can talk about drafting all women into the military.

Yes, drafting women has been an official plank in the feminist manifesto since the early 1970s at least. Sad to see a tenet of radical feminism adopted by military brass and many “conservatives” on freerepublic

If we run low on home grown cannon fodder, we can always import more from Mexico.

Many of the people advocating for endless war will never serve themselves and will never encourage their children to serve. Immigrants and the children of the "lower classes" will have to fill the ranks.

Generalize much?

My daughters aren’t going to register for the draft.

Have a great day.

And we will see the usual chorus of curmudgeons proclaiming that women want equality so they should be drafted. The idiotic part there is that the ones they are mad at would love to be drafted mostly.
But to get revenge on them, you’ll be sticking it to good little traditionally American Christian girls who want to start families and careers and have nothing in their childhood to prepare them for being a solder.

Only a louse and a dumbass would want to see normal girls living in a barracks, or in the even worse situations that a soldier endures. It weakens the military unit, and its not good for society.

This is especially true since all of our wars today are chessboard wars of convenience today. This isn’t a fight for our survival.

I don’t see how we can avoid it since we’re stretching our volunteer forces to the limit.

I don’t think it was men demanding that all military jobs be opened up to women.

It was women demanding that all military jobs be opened up to women.

You may not want your petite daughter in the Infantry, but you can thank your cousin Suzie and your sister Ann for forcing them to be there.

We avoid it by not having more elective wars of convenience. Niger for example.

If you have a shortage of volunteer forces, that is the citizenry voting on your wars. So if you have a shortage, raise pay until you have enough willing to fight in a war where America faces no danger. Maybe a PFC needs to see an offer of 80k a year, I don’t know.
But a draft is them not willing to pay the market wage, so they decide to take you against your will.

This country doesn’t have the greatest record with drafts when people are not behind the war in question.

Yeh you are against women. We picked right up on that. I’m sorry the pretty girls wouldn’t date you in high school but maybe time to move on.

Let’s start with Hillary Clinton, Madeleine Albright, Gloria Allred, and Cecille Richards….all the old feminist hags who talk so big about equality with men.
