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?

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.

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.

Hell, back during the Roman Empire, only about ~1% of free male Roman citizens served in the legions. (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.

Of course they do.

They represent about 1% of the nation with their views but will sentence all women to abide by their decrees.

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.

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.

Agreed. 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.

First of all, anyone who wants to be there is fucked in the head.

That aside, if you have an entire army of angry Zulus charging towards you, you would welcome anyone who can pull a trigger.

If a modern war ever comes down to needing to conscript people to fight, you will be glad to have whoever you can get, because that would mean we are losing badly.

Lets be clear, most women don't want the right to infantry jobs. I also don't want men dying because unfit women are forced into combat roles. Plenty of ways to serve that free up people who are capable for combat.

When Desert Shield / Storm kicked off, the first to go from where I was stationed were nurses and support people from the hospital.  We had a baby-boom.  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.
