Government

Off topic, but don't go too far overboard - after all, we are watching...heh.

Should the government bring back the draft?

Stupid ones maybe, no one cares about sex if they're in danger. Theres a reason why there aren't that many women special forces they just can't do as good of a job.

I've seen athletic women and very scrawny men. Some athletic women make just fine soldiers. Besides, it doesn't take a ton of upper body strength to bust a cap in your ass.

It's more a question of morale. Male soldiers are more likely to dumb shit in the presence of an injured woman than an injured man and thereby put the mission in jeopardy...

Overall though the men are more athletic and are just built for it.

The only time women were in a war, was WW2. Female Russian snipers. Really good shooters, if I can remember one killed about 500 germans.

The topic was about draft, which is not a political subject.

I'm all for clashing ideas, but this
It's a joke, you moron.

Back on the topic, I think... If they were to bring back the draft should women be included?

I still don't understand why people are even considering drafts in the country this was all cooked up by D- Charles Rangle.
