Are American feminists ready to handle the backlash that will result from these images.
Yes.
Definitely, but primarily for nursing and support specialties.
The military doesn’t want any draftees. The ramp up time to get a conscript mlitary makes the entire process moot. Any large scale war would be over before the first draftee made it to boot camp.
Violates equal protection. If women are allowed to voluntarily fill combat roles, they should be subject to the same laws for involuntarily filling those roles.
Note that I strongly (vehemently) disagree with women in combat roles.
Careful what you wish for. Equal means equal, and the bluff has been called.
Yes. The implied obligation to serve is baked in the cake of being in active armed services. They say they want complete access, right?
Draft only females to fill military quotas and allow the menfolk to stay home to keep the home fires burning and the children tended. Gradually phase out male military to have an all female fighting force.
Homosexuals would fit perfectly into the all-female military. Lesbians would have their heaven on earth.
The last time the draft was brought up Charlie Rangle floated the idea. Only Democrats bring it up. If we don’t capitalize on the issue WITH YOUNG FOLKS then we are stoopid. .
Yes. Maybe then they will start paying attention to what is going on in the world.
Rangel has pushed the draft for years.
The GOP, as a party, has a PhD in stupid.
Well, there is always a peacetime draft, otherwise known as compulsory national service for everyone between 18 and 25.
Obama still has not built his domestic army like he promised and he's running out of time.
What I think a lot of people are missing in this discussion is that we are broke. Funding a conscription army in the field would be impossible. If we slip into a recession this time around, we might just slide into a depression.
I often times think the US is economically where the Soviet Union was in 1989.
“Only the Democrats bring it up.”
For those who may be too young to remember the Vietnam
War the reason the ‘Rats invoke the draft is that it
mainly intensifies opposition by the masses against ANY
military action by the US.
After Vietnam (when those who led the war effort later admitted it was a mistake, and the next president pardoned those who dodged the draft), we could never have a draft again - and the peacetime draft is out of the question because people who believe in nothing won’t want to squander their time on this earth (especially their prime years). One problem with creating a gibsmedat mentality to win elections is that those people don’t listen to ANY authority.
Obama’s domestic army continues to be bred on the welfare reservations; we saw some detachments in action in Ferguson and Baltimore.
Women should register for Selective Service.
There should be no doubt about that.
I certainly wouldn’t watch my sons be drafted; our government no longer has the moral authority to do so. Who would ship off to kill foreigners half a world away while foreigners prey on our families here in the US? Unless they intend to use draftees to close the borders, I don’t doubt that they will be used for immoral purposes (like pushing the gay/feminist agenda in some Muslim country).
Never more so than today; since so many don’t breed, they are simply taking men’s college seats, jobs, and promotions via affirmative action. Instead of just drawing men’s pay, let them do men’s work.
