Last week the Pentagon made a landmark decision in regards to gender equality. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter announced that the military will now open all jobs to women, beginning in April of 2016. Despite widespread criticism against the military for selling out to political correctness, and concerns that women will hinder unit cohesion on the battlefield, women will now be allowed to work in explicit combat roles.
This decision also has implications for the selective service system. If women are now allowed to do all the jobs that men have traditionally done, including the infantry and special forces, will they now be subject to the draft? White House spokesman Josh Earnest seems to think it’s a possibility. “We’re going to work with Congress to look at that analysis, to review it, to get others’ opinions and determine if additional reforms or changes are necessary in light of this decision.”
Currently there are two separate lawsuits underway against the selective service system, for discriminating against women.
Army Secretary John McHugh noted in October that if women are allowed to contribute to all military roles, then it’s only fair for them be placed on the draft roles as well. “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.”
I guess the feminists of America can finally rejoice. Equal opportunity combat slavery is well on its way.
Ever wonder what it would take to dodge the draft? Here’s how you can become an army of none.

What They’re Saying: We recognize the valuable role women could play in combat.
What They Really Mean: We’re having trouble fulfilling our enlistment quotes, we’ll take anyone we can get.
Seen it coming.. It has been many years in the making, but it is the reward for a job well done. Can’t wait to see the new commercials, will also be interesting to see how the men wrapped up in Jezebel’s influence respond. I will say that this is getting very interesting, may have to start eating popcorn again at this rate.
Hey alright. It was not enough that we killed your sons for JP Morgan…we have now ascended to “slaughter your daughter” for Goldman Sachs baby!
How twisted and perverted our govt has become.
Draft – the U.S. doesn’t need a stinking draft. The gold collars scum crowd would somehow be exempt ie legal draft dodgers.
another reason to stop funding these scum.
More unlawfulness under the biblically seditious Constitution:
“And Yahweh spake … saying, Take ye the sum of all the congregation … every MALE by their polls; from [not twenty one or eighteen, but] twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war….”
(Numbers 1:1-3)
For more on how Yahweh’s moral law (including Numbers 1:1-3) applies and should be implemented today, Google free online book “Law and Kingdom: Their Relevance Under the New Covenant.”
Why don’t you explain why you are conducting a campaign to abolish the U.S. Constitution?
Draft? What draft? Are talking about ‘Selective Service’ cards filled out at 18? Granted, I watch absolutely zero MSM news….(I get ill within 30 seconds), but, if someone would be kind enough to illuminate me on where, who, how, what and when an ACTUAL DRAFT is being either implemented or in Congress, I would like to know about it. I will save this page and check back in a few days.
Thanks, Invierno
