Hey... they want to be ‘equal’ right???
“...the Marine Corps found that mixed-gender units were significantly outperformed by all-male units in simulated combat operations.”
Says it all.
Not surprised in the least. While we engage in this stupid, historically unsupported and destructive debate about this silly issue, the country will lose more ground.
What a perfect way for the ‘new’ army to send rural Christian women to die in hellholes.
Meanwhile the feminazis will be manning the supply depots stateside.
If? I thought it was already a done deal.
My daughters are not registering.
The Womyn have been harping about equality and preaching that there is essentially no valid reason women should be treated differently than men.
So why should they get only the good and none of the bad?
They won’t have the full equality they seek until all the rules and laws apply equally to females and males with no distinctions or exceptions based on sex.
Mine either.
I believe that any move to register women for the draft will play right into the hands of the Left. Women believe that they have special privileges in our society: they can do whatever they wish, but if it requires something unpleasant or not to their liking; then they retreat to society’s traditional protection of the child bearing gender.
Women will never tolerate being required to register, much left actually responding to a draft call. That is not in their nature and in the face of widespread resistance from females, the politicians will back off like a scalded dog. The result will be that our country will be unable to defend itself if such drastic measures is required. The Feminists will be pleased.
Meet the latest batch of recruits!
A young man who fails to register with Selective Service may be ineligible for opportunities that may be important to his future. He must register to be eligible for federal student financial aid, state-funded student financial aid in many states, most federal employment, some state employment, security clearance for contractors, job training under the Workforce Investment Act, and U.S. citizenship for immigrant men.
Men, born after December 31, 1959, who aren't registered with Selective Service won't qualify for federal student loans or grant programs. This includes Federal Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG), Direct Stafford Loans/Plus Loans, National Direct Student Loans, and College Work Study.
NOTE: Some states have added additional penalties for those who fail to register.
*******
I had to register after I left the Army.
Great question to Hillary though-— Great campaign issue. Should women be drafted? Let’s see who is conducting a war on women.
I could easily show you 1,000 pictures of similarly overweight young men.
This is sign they’re having trouble recruiting.
This is the Army. Stop a child from being raped, get screwed yourself.
An Army of ugh.
‘Bout time someone said it.
Or Private Vasquez in the movie "Aliens".
Where are all the feminists who are protesting because they went to sign up for the draft and got turned away?!?
It’s long past time for this.
Should have started back in the Seventies.
