While the media was focusing on the Orlando shooting, this just happened:

Some Republicans, however, supported the inclusion of women in the draft Service, now only required of men ages 18 to 26.

Senate Armed Services Chairman John McCain (R-Ariz.) backed it...

Shocker...

Decline of a moral civilization. It was only a matter of time. Next they can start enlisting foreigners when they can get no others, then some dumbass will wonder why they turn on them.

I think they already do to some degree.


United States

United States Armed Forces - Permanent Residence/Green Card. Many have also served in the war zones and have received US citizenship after a period of service.[29]

Citizens of Palau, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands may also join the US armed forces under the Compacts of Free Association, though some officer positions may be restricted.[30]

Canadian born Native Americans/First Nations may also join the US armed forces if they are of at least 50% blood quantum.[31]

Additionally, under the Military Accessions Vital to National Interest program, skilled foreigners such as translators may be recruited as needed, along with, as of September 2014 illegal immigrants with clean records and who have graduated high school if they were brought to the United States as children.[32]

Actually, in other news, this will probably guarantee that there will never be a draft again.

I hope that's true, but I have doubts about it.

Yep . By the 2nd century within a Roman Legion only the heavy Infantry were citizens , the remainder of the Legion were Auxillaries ( Foreigners) . This included the Ranged troops , Skirmishers ( special ops , recon , scouts etc) and the Cavalry, Engineers etc. Does not sound too bright .....
