Quote History

Quoted:

I'm a veteran with a son serving right now and my younger brother 2/3rds of the way through a Navy career. I tend to agree with you when it comes to my 18 & 17 yr old boys. This country run by soulless illigetimate creatures is not the one I took an oath to defend with my life. Like others here, if there's a true existencial threat to this nation, we'll all be there to kill the enemies of this nation. To die fighting for the globohomo aspirations of a bunch of corrupt assholes in DC? Fuck that and fuck them.

This. Our politicians and their tyrannical agencies can 200% go fuck themselves.

That's some weird timing for a tweet like that.

At 53 years old, half deaf from IED blasts during my deployment, I’m thinking I’m allowed to sit one out.

Quote History

Quoted:
call me anti american but if there is a draft and its for some fucking dumb fuck ass war that's pointless, I ain't letting them take my son. I'll go to jail before he goes and fight some pointless war to stroke some rich ass politicians ego

If he wants to go on his own accord, that's his choice.

I get the feels, but the statement doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. How do You expect to go to jail, to keep your son from being drafted?

What possible scenario do you envision?

Quoted:
I’d be willing to bet like 50% of fighting age males in this country either have been or are currently on either adderall or some kind of antidepressants. I thought that was a dealbreaker for service, wonder if they’d change that?

My Dad got drafted in 1950. His comment. If they needed more they would start drafting cats, dogs and pregnant women

If they need a half deaf guy, with a beer belly and plantar fasciitis, be my guest. I also work at home as a medic, I think that’s good enough for an exemption.

I would never go to war for this country, unless invaded.
Some globalist wants to make me go fight his war, GFYS.

I thank god that my boys are special needs, I won’t need to see them drafted and sent off to a war that I have no support for.

Lucky for us we have enough women and trannies to fight. They wanted equality, let em have it.

I’m not positive but I’m pretty sure if you have ever served in the military you can be recalled. I think it’s in the fine print when you sign up. The recall starts with younger ages and works it’s way up. Maybe things have changed I dunno.

Already medically disqualified when I tried to join the corps after High School, even so with my job I would 100% get an exemption. Back in WW2 the company was exempt for the draft for national security reasons

The question we should be asking is WTF does the selective service need its own Twitter page?

Only if I can use all the gear I’ve spent so much money on.

I am over 40. Draft is over for me. Even though I actually signed up for it my senior year...

May happen again for WW3

There ain't gunna be a draft. There is so much distrust in America, the country would literally explode before anyone gets drafted.

The riots would be amazing. Can you imagine the inner city types being told they are going to be drafted for fight for a fundamentally racist society? So in the name of racial equity it will only be people of a different demographic, not overtly mentioned mind you.

But honestly, you can't rebuild a nation into something fundamentally different if it is safe, prosperous, and at peace. We now move from one terrible crisis to the next, social cohesion is nearly gone, and faith in the American way is on life support. We are ripe for the hammer and sickle. After the food shortage rioting, then the draft rioting for the new war in Europe, then another round of virus lockdowns and forced vaccinations..."we are the government of the people comrade, and we have the solution". Of course the solution will be 30-40 million dead.

What?

Only if you're retired enlisted or an officer (obviously). If you were enlisted and didn't retire, no.

Me, yes, they can call me back but they won't. I'm not going to "take that hill" for one thing.

This country has gone downhill so fast the past few years, I’m almost to the point where I don’t care about the flag anymore or the military. I would not encourage anyone to enlist.
