All that shows is most people are cowards and have to be forced to take action. It's fucking disgusting. The world has always been drug kicking and screaming to greatness by their betters. There we were the time when our way of life was most at risk and people had to be forced to fight. Pathetic. Bro, only 12% of Spanish aged 18-40 would join the Spanish Army if the country was under direct threat of invasion. Do you think that number is appreciably different anywhere in the Western world? Nope and to me it's kind of depressing, I do not understand how so many people can sit idlely by and do nothing while everything they love and cherish is at stake. Who cares if you might die in the process who cares if you might lose at least you stand up for something by fighting. If there were more people who truly loves their nations then maybe the world would be a better place. |

(137,000 legionaries out of a total population of about 25 million citizens), and this was a far more martial culture than ours. |

I understand your point, and I agree to an extent, but that part in red is very subjective. I 'm not going to fight to protect an "ally" that wrote checks their ass can't cash, or spread democracy to people that don't want it, etc. The draft allows a very small group of people control over the lives of millions in the name of national security. |

Quoted: I'm OK with this. Conscripted service does not equal combat.plenty of jobs women can do if we are at war. View Quote In today's .mil, if we need a draft, it means the SHTF in a big way, and every able body is needed for some task. My mother wore a uniform in WW2. Forgot what she was doing, but something. Maybe drove an amberlamps? |

mmm, part of me like this from a "fair" perspective, part of me thinks this is bullshit, because I have a 10 yo daughter and do not want her to serve

Of course they do. More we know best grandstanding from the sexist feminists who will practice escape and evasion techniques to avoid serving. These so called women would love nothing more than to look down their noses at those who serve their nation while sending our families off to fight. They represent about 1% of the nation with their views but will sentence all women to abide by their decrees.
The real goal is to snuff out any semblance of femininity. They are a loathsome lot. |

This won't ever actually become law, unfortunately.
For all the white knights denouncing this, give me a fucking break. These vile, shrill cunts scream about equality, here it is. Make ALL women put their lives where their big fat mouths are, and maybe then this militant feminism SJW bullshit that's destroying this country will boil to a head and blow up in their faces. As others have said, there are plenty of things to do in the military that doesn't require your princess to be in front line combat. In any case, it's all a moot point because lets face it, it'll never become law that women have to register for the S/S. Once again they get to scream about how unfair it is that they can't be in combat, then they're allowed, then they cry about having to register for the draft, so the white knights defend them, and they get further emboldened and the SJW movement continues to gain momentum. |

Equal rights, yo. Until they're called up. Men can't get pregnant. Wait until they give birth then send them off.

I agree that a draft is not a good thing. Not at all. But if we're willing to go that route, then it should be universal. "I actually think if we want equality in this country, if we want women to be treated precisely like men are treated and that they should not be discriminated against, we should be willing to support a universal conscription," she said. She's not wrong. Opening Pandora's Box means you get all the downsides with the good. |

Even amongst those of us who did serve, the vast majority did not ever feel women were suited to combat arms positions. Those should have remained the province of men. Sadly, a very tiny number of suited individuals decided that "equality" was the avenue they wanted to take to destruction of an effective fighting force. That was their goal, and they used the social justice warriors to accomplish it. |

A large percentage of people in the military, probably most people, would have never signed up if they thought they would have to go to war. If women were actually drafted, it would be to fill support spots to free up the men to fight. |

With equal rights comes equal responsibility. You can't have your cake and eat it too. I am fundamentally opposed to a draft of men or women but we have draft registration. With this great social "revolution" that's going on, you're damn straight, I think women should held to the same standard as men.
How about a compromise? Identify yourself as a conscientious objector and you are barred from military service, period. But if you don't, you register for the draft and if a draft occurs, you take your lumps, just like the boys. |
