    Default Send your daughter to war

    While the country obsessed about Orlando, the Congress passed the National Defense Act, which (among other things) requires young women to register for selective service and be eligible for the draft. Headed to O's desk for a signature.

    I don't have a daughter but I have mixed feelings on the issue regardless.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    When I think about militant feminists, I have the same thought. When I think about my own daughter, I get very strong NIMBY emotions.

    Equality means equal draft notices and equal number of deferments. Equal number of occupied body bags coming back home too.

    It's the reason so many of us fought "equality" but we were marginalized.

    Feminists did the same thing for women in the workforce. Women used to have choice and now most are forced to work. Isn't equality great!

    Sadly, I don't think this is true.

    I only have sons but even if I had daughters I would feel any different about them as I do about my sons.

    Also the chance of a draft is slim to none.

    You think so? Might want to take a look at what we're doing in Syria and how we are engaged with NATO against Putin.

    Russia could move on the EU tomorrow and the EU would be overrun in a week, EU is DEPENDENT on the US for defense, they cannot defend themselves. We have idiots like john fuckin kerry and his majesty barack the fuckwit obama running foreign policy after the bitchhag screwed everything up she ever touched.

    If Russia moves there will be a draft. I just hope all the idiots who think women should be in combat go first b/c they should be the first ones to die in the war their asshole leaders created.

    Good points but I think the goose has been cooked.

    If the US doesn't have the political will to stay in Iraq (relatively cheap in blood/treasure compared to other wars) how could we fight another world-war scale conflict? We've got an entire generation of folks who think work is a hobby and they're not interested. If a young guy (or gal) won't even work a 9-5 do we really expect them to go to war? Won't pay off their student loans but will march with loads getting ~4 hours sleep a night, sleeping in mud, getting shot at, not showering, eating out of a plastic bag for days (and enjoying all the associate digestive changes that occur).

    If Putin wants continental Europe, it's his.

    I almost doubt if a direct and substantial attack on the US would unify us at this point. Half the county hates the other half and that hatred increases with each and every day along with moral confusion.
