    I was of draft age during the Vietnam war. Fortunately my A-1 status went away when they stopped the war, but I wasn't going to go over there and fight for the statists.

    I feel sorry for the young people today getting drafted into some foreign war fought for the benefit of the politicians who enjoy dinner at the french laundry....

    god help some foreign soldiers that show up on my street looking to take over, though.

    Think about this carefully.

    7 ‘‘SEC. 3. (a)(1) Except as otherwise provided in this
    8 title, every male citizen of the United States, and every
    9 other male person residing in the United States
    , between
    10 the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically
    11 registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective
    12 Service System.
    13 ‘‘(2) This section shall not apply to any alien lawfully
    14 admitted to the United States as a nonimmigrant under
    15 section 101(a)(15) of the Immigration and Nationality Act
    16 (8 U.S.C. 1101) for so long as he continues to maintain
    17 a lawful nonimmigrant status
    in the United States.

    Can't ask if one is legal immigrant or not. Can ask if one is registered.

        During 1969 I was "not yet a Marine or a civilian~~just puke!" being trained on Parris Island.
        "Want to leave?" a drill instructor told us. "Just tell me you're a homo and you're going home."
        Me dino don't think telling a D.I. that will work out like that anymore.
        Anyway, the first half of that movie, "Full Metal Jacket," with an actual retire USMC drill instructor playing the USMC drill instructor was dead on accurate.
        Not anymore I'm afraid. Saw on TV either during the late Seventies or the late Eighties that Marine drill instructors are telling recruits they aren't going to punch them anymore.
        That was but a baby step of softening up Marine training for actual combat compared to the D.E.I. BS that must be going on now.

    I already served 20 years in the Air Force, back in the pre-woke days, thankfully. If they initiate a draft today, i predict 1/3 of the draftees could not meet military fitness standards.

    I suggest we make all illegal immigrants (of draft age (male and female) should be required to register for the draft or be deported. I don't believe in getting something for nothing. They are getting free health care, food, money, housing. Why not?

      "If migrants are given a quick pathway to citizenship by joining the army, they'll mainly be good for controlling the citizenry. Especially now since the current regime has come out and declared traditional Americans—MAGA people, if you will, or about half the country—as being potential terrorists. Foreign migrants are the ideal material for the bad guys who—as incredible as it might seem—appear to want a civil war against traditional Americans." - Doug Casey

      They can fill out the conscript papers on the way to Gitmo, the first leg of deportation. If called for service, training can be obtained on Gitmo and upon graduation service will be anywhere in the world except within the USA. Completion of service allows LEGAL entry to the US and sets the path to citizenship. The whole thing should work similar to the French Foreign Legion. The alternatives are to be accepted for a legitimate asylum reason or be deported to where they came from and no chance of ever entering the USA in the future (they can always walk through a gate to Cuba as well).

        Cuba is probably smart enough not to allow such an invasion except by those who can provide expertise needed in Cuba.
        (This is true in almost every country in the world. Only the tyrants in D.C. give free reign and free support to invaders with no talent and ill will toward America.)

          Exactly! The EXIT gate from Gitmo to Cuba may be wide open, but I'm sure there will be an armed reception on the Cuban side and the Cuban government will likely find something for you to do.

          The only caveat I can see here is there are certainly a number of illegals who mean harm to the US and cycling them through Cuba for additional training may make things worse.

    I served once, realized it was a mistake and wouldn't do it again knowing America sows the seeds of discord and does not promote peace anywhere it goes.

      America does not
      the deep state does

      look at Germany and Japan to see what America does

      the 2 are not the same, the deep state is an infestation we need to remove

    Well, I would too, but I don't understand the big fuss over this. The Senate will NEVER let this pass. It's already a non-starter, from what I am reading.

    Am I missing something?

      Why wouldn't they?
      It's against men and men don't matter except as soldiers who will be human sacrifices to maintain Deep State/bankster power.
      Send all those masculine men (who might stand against tyranny) off to die in another bankster war.

        This is from Snopes (yes, I know, and I agree with you on Snopes), but it appears to agree with the other sources I am reading:

        Is This Bill Actually Going To Become A Law?
        A brief Civics 101 refresher: In order for a bill to become a law, the majority of members in both the House of Representatives and the Senate must vote "yea" on the proposed legislation, and then the president must sign ii. So far, in the case of H.R. 8070, though one of those things had happened, it wasn't likely to go much further.

        The version of the bill passed by the Republican-controlled House was chock-full of amendments likely to stop it from passing the Democrat-controlled Senate, including bans on the money being used to provide abortion and gender-affirming care through the military's healthcare system, rollbacks on climate change protections and dismantling diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

        ======================================

        Of course that doesn't mean it won't eventually pass as part of some other bill, but my question is: OK, what are they trying to distract us from NOW, because this is not going to happen at this time.

        Also, I definitely agree with John RandALL, who said at least 1/3 of the population of kids that age will not be fit for service....

        the second that the left needs cannon fodder, they will force people to join the armed forces. In addition, they will require businesses to stop what they are doing and provide whatever the armed forces need by printing money like the fascists did in nazi germany (Schlinder's list....)

    A great business now would be simple and inexpensive drones for travel on land and also ones that fly. Replace a lot of soldiers. Use AI to allow some degree of autonomous behavior. All they have to be when it comes to killing is more accurate than human soldiers (just like autonomous vehicles- they don't have to be perfect in ALL situations)
