There are some rumblings that I expect to get louder now that our elite is realizing that they have totally alienated the traditional Americans who traditionally make up our Armed Forces, and that they are thinking about the necessity of a draft. The Army War College, of which I am an alum, recently published an article that talks about the casualties you can expect in high intensity warfare – several thousand a week. So, in a few weeks, you’ve got more dead than you had in Afghanistan and Iraq combined over 20 years. Our military, which has shrunk dramatically over the last three decades, simply cannot accept that rate of casualties, especially when it can’t fill its ranks with volunteers anymore. So, the answer is apparently to not rely on volunteers.
Don’t count out establishment pressure for a new draft. After all, it’s not a meat grinder without meat. The bodies have to come from somewhere. There’s no calling guys back to active duty. At the height of the global war on terror about 20 years ago, we had a lot of dudes signing up because they were excited and patriotic and wanted to avenge 9/11. Well, they learned, the hard way that this establishment is not only grossly incompetent but cares nothing for them. When you treat troops like garbage, they know it. And it’s not like you can call them back. Their service obligations are up. Most of them are pushing 40 at the low end. Do you know what you call a 40 year-old infantryman? Sergeant major or colonel. And we’ve got plenty of those. In fact, we have too many.
The ridiculous Mark Milley, basically Alexander von Sausage Vindman with more stars, waddled his way up to a podium to retire the other day. He’s a freaking disgrace to the uniform. This is the guy who wanted to know what “white rage” was in front of one audience, but in front of another denied that he knew what woke is. I wonder if they really think their soldiers are stupid enough not to know when they’re being lied to. Well, our troops are not that dumb. And they certainly know when their lives are being squandered, as 13 of them were in Kabul.

This government only represents minorities… let them do the fighting and dying for the regime.
I’VE ALREADY PUT MY NAME OUT AS FULLY QUAL’D NAVY TACTICAL ACTION OFFICER (TAO) WHEN THE BALLOON GOES UP
COMBAT SHIPS WILL NEED US
BEATS BEING ON THE SIDELINES HERE
THINGS MAY GET FUGLY SOON!!
My wife is looking into get my son a passport from her home country. If there is a draft my son will be sent out of America. He will not die defending a foreign country’s borders while ours is open.
^^^^^^^^^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1000%
Have they seen what’s available in young “men” these days?
They’ve been quite successful in destroying “toxic masculinity”.
Or any masculinity at all.
Except in young women.
They’ve made THEM quite masculine.
Hate to say it but I don’t think the next war will have neutrality.
Right now the only thing I would fight to protect is my yard and house, I pretty much despise the government of this once great nation.
Winter is Coming…
how many vets have been kicked out of their living accomodations to be replaced with illegal aliens?
send the illegal aliens instead.
I long for the days when faggots were kicked out of the military as soon as they were detected. Now, I think faggots should supply Biden’s meat grinder. Blacks are always bitching about being marginalized so demarginalize them into the meat grinder. Feme-Nazis want to break the glass ceiling so let them break it in the meat grinder. Illegals want to invade, so let them invade in the meat grinder. Muslims want carnage so let them have all they can stand in the meat grinder. Dindo nuffins want to chimp out so let them chimp out in the meat grinder. Let them have the equity they claim they want in spades.
Reverse discrimination was a clumsy method of addressing past discrimination, shifting the pendulum for the purposes of regression to the mean (reverting back to average). I say we adopt this same principle for the draft; for the next 200 years we draft only women. They wanted equality and respect, here ya go ladies, put up or shut up.
The only way to make the draft fair is for everyone to have to serve for at least 2 years, no exceptions for socioeconomic status, race, creed or color, everyone goes. Except for fags and trannies, you can exclude them like they did back in the bad old days of Vietnam, Korea, World War 2 etc. I hate the draft as much as anyone else since I was in the last age cohort to be drafted in 1972 when I joined the Navy near the end of the Vietnam War. And I suppose now some assholes in Congress will want women to be drafted as well, which is not a good idea.
I don’t want any of my grand kids fighting, dying or coming home screwed up, for anyone in our corrupt unfix-able government, or for some phony propped up nation real Americans have no actual vested interest in. You can bet the elites in America won’t have their kids being killed for no apparent reason. Times have changed big time. USAF vet.
Are they good with skinny jeans and man buns?
Those rings in their ears will be good for grenade holders.
Seems like being in the military now is a bad idea on steroids? They’ll smoke them like a cheap cigar and when you come home in a box Biden will be checking his watch.
I UNDERSTAND THE SENTIMENTS ABOVE, HAVE SHARED THE SAME, BUT ARE WE TO GIVE UP ON THE AMERICA AS SET FORTH BY THE FOUNDERS??
I’M NOT THROWING THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATHWATER YET
If I had a kid that was draft age today, I’d help him become a consciousness objector. This country has turned its back on God, IMHO, it’s not worth fighting for. Since 2019, I lost faith in any leader of this country.
Hodor!
Benito, how can you assume being on the sidelines here when there’s thousands of enemy combatants coming over the border?
They’re here to take your better life, not make one for themselves.
Fat, dumb, and stoned will not net any decent recruits.

Hiding in the basement seems like the best option
CHUMLEE, I’M TALKING ABOUT THOSE WHO WANT TO MOVE THEIR SONS/DAUGHTERS OUT OF COUNTRY, WANT ILLEGALS AND TRANNIES TO BE OUR 21ST CENTURY MILITARY, WANT TO TURN THEIR BACKS ON OUR MILITARY YET PRAY TO GOD THEY SAVE AMERICA’S ASS
I AGREE WITH THE GENERAL MOOD, BUT THE OPTION IS TO SAY “FUCK IT”??
WE WANT TO GET AMERICA BACK
HEY, IF THE DNC RULES THE ROOST IN 2024, I MAY JOIN Y’ALL AND SAY YES, IT’S OVER
NOT YET THOUGH
>> Who wants to serve in the Great Pronoun War of 2023? Who wants to be forced into taking vaccines that don’t vaccinate? Who wants their commander to have breasts and a penis? <<
This is what they have fomented. Liberals will fuck anything up.
Good luck with that. No one in their right mind is fighting for the neo-con/neo-lib forever wars gravy train. They’ll be riots that make the BLM Summer look like a Girl Scout Jamboree.
Hell no! I won’t go!
Fuck beachmom!
