Hey I didn't threaten to kill anyone!

There are lots of folks that do not know there was a draft....

I would love to see the maneuvering some of the folks on this site would have done to avoid a post 9/11 draft.

That being said, I appreciate the largely symbolic gesture of the ruling.

Who says they need to be in a combat role? They are plenty of pogue positions they can do.

This is excellent indeed, equality is what they asked for, equality is what they get. Now you can dig latrines like the rest of us. :meeting:

I'm opposed to compulsory military service unless we are actually being invaded and defending home ground.

Additionally, at the time I was working my ass off to pay for my house and take care of my loved ones, that would have been impossible on Army pay. Now if they want to shitcan the Dick Act and restore the Constitutional "militia" I'll be glad to do my part as a US citizen.

Figured he was just going to get drafted anyway.

There will be another war and another draft because one half of the country would never serve on their volition.
