The 9th Circuit Court of Appeal heard arguments this week about the constitutionality of a male-only draft — and whether or not the case should go to trial.
The suit was brought by the San Diego-based National Coalition For Men nearly three years ago — after the military began considering allowing women into combat - but was thrown out at the time after the court ruled it wasn't "ripe" because the combat role of women was then in flux.
Now on appeal, the three-judge panel heard arguments in Pasadena a week after Secretary of Defense Ash Carter announced that he was lifting all remaining barriers to women serving in military combat jobs.

Defense of the Republic violates the Constitution.
*sigh*
How about getting serious about serious things, like father’s rights during pregnancies or child custody after divorce?
How about reparations for the last 150 years of male only draftees? Draft only women.
It’s only fair. It’s who we are.
Yeah Buddy!
EXACTLY!!!! Draft the ladies, be they genetically lady or delusionally lady, or genetically lady even though delusionally “male.” Or the other umpteen categories of nonsense the left has conjured up.
Selective Service for ALL!!!!
Oh yeah yeah...great idea. Reparations for males for all those male-only drafts.
I wonder if they are “allowing” women in combat roles, or forcing them into it? I think Israel tried it some years ago. I don’t think it worked out so well for them.
Even making young girls registered will make them question the lefty feminists they’ve been duped by.
Exactly. I love it. Such a good plan.
What a bunch of pansies.
“Family court” makes waaaaaaaay too much money to do that kind of reform. That racket pulls in over 50 billion dollars a year. over 50 billion out of families’ pockets to these judges, lawyers, and court demanded experts.
Extending the draft to Americans’ daughters will be the biggest setback for the John McCain-neocon push for more wars and occupations. Average Amercan families aren’t going to support more US wars in the Middle East once it means their daughters could be sent to fight - and be captured by Jihadi savages
It will also make more Americans question the war enthusiasm of folks like McCain, Carly, Rubio, and Hillary
True. That’s another side benefit. Mostly it will force the feminists to put up or shut up.
The ninth circus... enough already.
Here we go. Which one of us didn’t see this coming? Liberal stupidity has its consequences.
They absolutely have a case. Unfortunately.
Be very careful what you ask for and take pains to demand. All actions have consequences.
