Democrat idea told by an idiot, full of sound and fury. Signifying nothing.
So, you're calling the Army Secretary a Democrat idiot?
A good start.
However we live in an era of reparations and affirmative, corrective action.
Therefore WHEN women are drafted there should be no more men drafted until the number of female draftees equals the number of men drafted in the last 100 years.
But once that corrective parity has been achieved then it'd be OK to draft men and women in numbers proportionate to their representation in the general population.
Another useless huge database? A total waste of time. No woman will ever be called up.
Why not? They are in Israel. Women want equality - which they should have.
I hate to break this to you all at once but apparently your parents failed to do so. THIS AIN'T ISRAEL.
There are many countries that require mandatory military service.
Uhhh. We ain't one of them. Look, it's a volunteer military anyway so the whole subject is a moot point. If you wish to join up, you can certainly do so. That's what men and women are doing right now.
It's only voluntary because we haven't needed a greater standing military since Vietnam. Are you afraid to do your duty?
Donald Trump should cause a lot of people to worry about the military draft being reinstated.
If the draft is reinstated - I hope it is fair and includes the "privileged" ones as well. No more pulling strings and mickey mouse deferments. That includes the Romney and Trump kids.
The Obama girls should get drafted, amiright?

Yep, every healthy human of military age. Of course you want the darkies to go first.
How about fags...we don't have enuf of them either...

If the U.S. military prioritizes "true and pure equality," women might eventually have to register for the draft.
So said Army Secretary John McHugh at the Association of the United States Army’s annual meeting in Washington on Monday, reports Military.com. McHugh added that the issue -- if and when it arises -- should be determined by Congress, not the Department of Defense.
"If your objective is true and pure equality, then you have to look at all aspects and at some point Selective Service will have to be one of those things considered very carefully," said McHugh, according to The Washington Examiner.
McHugh added he expects the issue would prompt much "emotional discussion and debate."
Women are not currently required to register for the draft, although a New Jersey woman earlier this year sued the U.S. Selective Service System in an attempt to change that policy.
In 2013, then-Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, then the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lifted the ban on women serving in combat roles.
“If members of our military can meet the qualifications for a job -- and let me be clear, we are not reducing qualifications -- then they should have the right to serve,” Panetta said at the time.
He also speculated that the move could eventually lead to the inclusion of women in the Selective Service.

This possibility should be kept in mind when warmongers push for more American aggression in foreign countries. I believe the military draft will eventually have to be reinstated. Such a possibility should encourage everyone to pay close attention to presidential candidates on related issues.

That's fine - so long as all the rich white kids participate in the fun.
Best known as the co-creator of gritty Afghanistan war documentaries "Restrepo" and "Korengal" and author of the book, "A Perfect Storm," Junger argues in "Tribe" that the military community thrives amid trauma and danger, but tends to become lost in the relative peace and security of our stratified modern society. When troops leave their tight-knit community, Junger writes, they often feel isolated and detached, reporting a form of reentry trauma that he argues is frequently misidentified as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
President Kennedy greets Peace Corps workers in 1961. Junger argues that mandatory national service with military and non-military options could build a more cohesive society.
Junger avoids proposing a comprehensive solution to the problem he presents in "Tribe." But he told Military.com in an interview this month that one possible way to build a more cohesive society might be to create a different kind of draft: one in which some form of national service is mandatory for all eligible citizens, but the military is only one of several service choices, along with options like the Peace Corps and urban improvement projects. "I think it's a shame that the only way to serve your country is with a gun," Junger said. "I think mandatory national service would throw every component of society into a pot together and stir it up, black, white, poor … everybody goes in there. And it would give young people a very valuable lesson that they're actually part of this incredible experiment."
Here are more questions and answers from the Military.com interview:
