First, and this is very important, as Joe Biden destabilizes the world, emboldens the Taliban and Al Qaeda, and claims we will protect Taiwan from China, he and a bipartisan group of senators intend to expand the draft to include our daughters.
My niece served several tours of duty in Iraq, all on base rear of the forward action, and I have two daughters who today would be eligible for the draft. I have no problem with them serving in the military, voluntarily. In fact, I would be proud if they did. But never, ever would I want them in a combat role where they could be captured and tortured by the likes of the Taliban, ISIS, ISIS-K, Al Qaeda, etc. Let the politicians promoting this put on the uniform and go serve a year on the front lines first. In fact, I nominate Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts to be the first to go. Nancy Pelosi too. Maybe an opportunity to bond and mend fences.
Your argument is valid, however you're preaching to the choir in this thread. Conservatives are the ones that actually recognize there's a difference between the "typical" man vs woman. It's the liberals that insist that we're equal in every way (partially pigeon holed themselves in with the pro-trans movement) so they can't really be upset when the government wants to send their daughters to war against their (or your/our) will.
It's even more sad that it'll take a lot of our young women dying before they'll try to reverse the decision (and blame conservatives somehow).
Hopefully, the Dems will push so hard to enact their far left agenda that they'll tick off everyone OTHER than their Progressive base. There's not enough of them to counter the Repub base plus and the majority of irate Independents.
Erick - tried the link - I've previously signed up - and received a message:
Oops! An error occurred.
No officials were found for your area. Please check back later.
For the record, I've gone through this twice now, and received the same message. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossof are my senators. Not sure why your link couldn't find them.
I'm in GA and the link gives me the same message too. I figured that since I've contacted these senators before, expressing conservative views that maybe I'm on a "do not bother me" list.
While I've never contacted the state representatives, my name is obviously associated with conservatism, but since it does the same thing when I use my work address, I think it's more of a site problem than a conspiracy (this time, at least)
Getting the error message as well.
getting same error message
Well, at least none of the gender confused, ughh mammals, can complain that they were discriminated against.

Where are the calls for Biden's impeachment, Erick? Start the drumbeat now, and make it very loud!
Seriously! If EVER there were a President to be impeached…this is the one. He’s braking federal laws intentionally every, single, day.
What's wrong with drafting women?
Equal rights.
Equal pay.
Women allowed in combat.
Equity is continuously desired...but they sure haven't rushed to fix this lack of equality.

Just....Nice!

Warlock and Assof are accompanying Buttitches on his two-month paternity leave, so maybe check back with them in a month or so.
I'm in WA and it works for me. Maybe there is something different about WA daughters when compared to GA daughters. Who knows?

agreed, have the same issue and same senators
Ditto for me, and I live in GA too.
Maybe it's a subconscious thing because we Georgians have no faith in those two men.
Rick Williamson
just now
Or maybe it realizes there's no point contacting them.
