All a person has to do to get out of being drafted is get a knife and make a superficial wound on their arm in front of a doctor. I'd take a scar over having my arm blown off any day.

I would just like to know why actual women are even allowed in the military in the first place.

Nope, the military now welcomes transgender people and will pay for the transgender process from start to finish.


We've all heard about Bradley/Chelsea Manning getting his/her gender reassignment treatment and surgery paid for by Uncle Sam. What I didn't know is that there are about 2,450 transgender son active duty. I read this figure in a recent NY Times article. The subject of the article is a West Point cadet who is graduating in the Class of '17. He decides to be "true to himself" and become a girl last year. The Army is refusing to commission him or her and liberals are crying foul. Apparently, there's also a transgender in this year's Air Force Academy class.

The West Point cadet is Riley Dosh.

There are as many as 6,600 transgender troops in the active-duty military force of about 1.3 million, according to RAND Corp. estimates. The annual price tag for the troops’ treatment, ranging from counseling, hormone treatment and surgery, was put at between $2.4 million and $8.4 million, according to RAND. By late last year, about 100 active duty transgender troops had sought medical treatment under the policy.


The above quote is from a 5/10/17 USA Today article, stating a RAND Corp. study estimating as many as 6,600 Caitlyn's on acitive duty. WTF!?! Can you imagine having a brand new female butter bar as your platoon leader?
