Title: United States Selective Service Service
Post by: Augustus Lucius Flavius on December 23, 2013, 04:10:13 PM

Well I had to sign up for the Draft today. I have absolutely no problem with it but my older sister did not have to sign up for the Draft.   This bothers me because women are allowed to participate in all braches of the service therefore taking equal responsibility has men in the Armed Forces, but are not allowed to sign up for the Draft, not being required to have the same sacrifice in the event of madness happening.  So my question is: am I a nutcase (highly likely) for thinking this or not.

They should.  In this day of equality, they should be given the equal chance to die for their country.
