13th Amendment.
“Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction”
Pretty damn clear
They don’t really need to do it in honor of anybody, but it does need to end. We’re never going to actually DO it, so the registration is just a waste of time and money.
Also, todays military is so perverted, filled with homos, trannys, breast feeding moms, and treasonous internationalist, careerist statist officers, that nobody should be forced to participate in it.
I agree because there is already a drive afoot to have women register for selective service to eliminate the potential discrimination that could be caused by a “transgender” feeling like a woman, but being prosecuted for not registering since they have an xy chromosome set.
Eliminate the registration and you eliminate the potential conflict as well as take a very minor step toward downsizing federal government.
‘The Muhammad Ali Voluntary Service Act’
But he didn’t volunteer.
The age of Big Data has made Selective Service obsolete.
I was ready to force myself to swallow Rand Paul as a VP choice to bring in the burned Bernies. But now that horse pill looks as big as a volleyball.
“The Draft” of the 20th century bears little resemblance, if any, to what occurred in Revolutionary times...
Selective Service as constituted is a ludicrous waste of money and should have been abolished in 1991.
We needed six weeks to spin up a real draft in 1941, from a standing start with zero employees and a budget of $0. Every cent spent on this travesty since 1991 has been wasted.
In other news I read today that Bill Clinton will be delivering the eulogy for Ali. Apparently they were friends. Nuff said.
Rand is smart. The SS is never going to be invoked by a Democrat-run Clowngress anyhow - the Dems Senators/Reps don’t want to, the army doesn’t want the useless idiots they’d get out of it, and the average Dem voter doesn’t want it. Why not use this to get some much-needed support?
This grandstanding stunt is an embarrassment and waste of time. Then again, it IS the US Senate, isn't it?
