Reply #34: You say you cannot be drafted [View All]

[customerserviceguy]

IF, and only if, we had a draft, do you really think that women would be excluded this time around? Even if the legislation were drawn up for men only, can you imagine every Federal court in the land agreeing to that scenario? I know, there is no Equal Rights Amendment, but the courts have not upheld any "separate but equal" treatment for the genders, when they face it. Car insurance excepted, of course.

I think the right knows it, too, and that's the number one reason we WON'T have a draft in this country. They don't want to send little Suzy Debutante marching off in fatigues if she's too stupid to keep her college deferment.
