There currently isn't a draft, but that could very easily change. If the draft is deemed necessary, the selective services will begin drafting men 18 to 25. This will be based on a lottery system. If chosen, you'll be asked to fight in Ukraine. Also, just because you're over the age of 25 doesn't mean you'll be exempt. I don't believe you're off the hook until age 35.

This question was elevated to the top for greatness (or something like that)
Then the same staff removed it for being spam. (whatever that is)
And now it's back? Why? Who's running the show?
If Ukraine winning the war was contingent upon Biden and Congress reinstating the draft, would you be for or against it?
First, the reason that NCFM vs the SS was rejected by the Supreme Court was that Biden promised them that they would "resolve it" which meant once again sneaking a provision ending the SS's sexism into a bill thicker than a phone book, relying on the Republicans to kill it. That's exactly what happened, but had Trump been reelected, or Marc Angelucci not been murdered, it would've gone through to the SC anyway. The reason the matter had to be settled by a court ruling rather than a law is that the outrage would've killed it dead- society is simply NOT WILLING to put its women at risk the way it does its men, and admitting that is anathema, since it obliterates any ability to claim that women are victimized by laws. A law, especially in a bigger bill, would simply be socially ignored. Battle slavery would neither start nor end without women, not this time.
Second, the SS does indeed delete your file once you turn 26; short of passing another law, those of us above that age would be safe.
Third, you would not be "asked" to fight in Ukraine; you would be FORCED, under penalty of imprisonment.
None of that, however, answers your question; my reply to that is "Hell, no!". The thirteenth amendment didn't nationalize slavery, it outlawed it; the court's failure to realize this in both 1919 and later is a mark of shame on the country, not a "reasonable interpretation of the law".
Likewise, this Ukraine's war, not ours; they failed to protect themselves, and failed to plan ahead, even AFTER Russian seized Crimea in 2014. The existence of your unpleasant neighbors does not mean you're entitled to American money and blood. Putin's evils don't justify Zelensky's.
Against. Part of the reason our military is so effective is that we are a volunteer force. People who are willing to go to battle tend to be more effective than those forced on the battlefield. As for me, I would not be drafted since I am already a veteran.
Thank you for your service, but never say never. Rules are meaningless under Biden. There are homeless veterans living on the streets, and illegal aliens living in 5 star hotels.
1. You were smart enough to answer the question. lol (most people can't) 2. You understand that Biden gave Russia the green light to do this, and the idiot even said so on national TV. 3. You said it's not our war, and you're right. Our military is to protect Americans, not the entire planet.
I know my opinion isn't a popular one, but Ukraine should have surrendered on day one.
Every now and then I hear talk about this happening so that's why I ask. Biden said he would never put American boots on the ground in Ukraine, but we all know everything he says is a lie.
I am against the draft, period. The draft in effect declares that the people belong to the politicians, who are free to use them and dispose of them as they see fit.
you'd think that in order to get that price, you'd actually have to keep peace or make peace. neither of which was done there. the opposite. so that's why i'm figuring, sleepy joe is gonna get one... if he manages to survive till the end of his term.
oh he already brought you the war. you already have a fully fledged cold war and on top of that he already declared war on china by saying that he will defend taiwan from them. considering china doesn't acknowledge taiwans independence, this was a straight up war declaration.
cause he pretty much promised that to happen if they take taiwan as he promised to fuck up my countries gas supply... but people here are litterally sheep. biden could come and fuck merkel up the ass and nobody would take notice.
of course i had jäger schnitzel xD there's actually a very popular place in my region that makes a 2.5 pound schnitzel. it tastes nice but it's pretty much considered junk food :D
Really? I mean 8 get we're divided combative country. But at the end of the day people vote thier own interests generally. Even if you're democrats you're probably going to turn on a guy that sends you off to fight a war that really isn't even our fight. Or at least I think a vast majority of democrats would.
Maybe, maybe not, maybe they just abstain from voting. But as I said it'd be political suicide. Any incumbent president Democrat or republican that does this would not get re-elected.
I ended up look up this right before responding. I saw Vietnam shot a torpedo at one of the ships. But it’s kind of interesting that Vietnam and korea is such a small country and bombed and attacked the heck out it but they still lost and left.
I just said Vietnam shot a torpedo at a us ship. I don’t quiet remember the history from school but I think Korea got involved because they were ally to Vietnam.
* Cut our Keystone pipeline. * Gave the green light for Putin to finish his pipeline. * Reversed the stay in Mexico policy * Opened up the border to all * Doesn't give a shit about fentanyl
And later, the traitor in chief sold our strategic oil supply to China.
There will be a draft, and Xi Jinping will order it. It will be a double win for both countries. China will love having less Americans, and the American oligarchs will love having illegal CHEAP labor.
You're right that everything this administration does benefits its CCP masters; however, a reinstatement of the draft for Ukraine when we don't even protect our own borders will bring out every Mama Bear and the scale of that resistance will keep Congress from reinstating a draft. Besides, Ukraine is just about money laundering bribes and kickbacks.
Everytime one of those commercials come on showing our wounded warriors who lost both legs, and maybe even an arm, it just infuriates me. For what? Looking for weapons of mass destruction that we never found?
Agreed. These Wokey fools support everything they are told to support, without question. Just like tranny "rights", where the fuck did that come from? All of a sudden tranny's are all the rage... absurd.
