“”The judge noted that the U.S. Constitution requires two things of most citizens: to submit to a draft in times of war and to serve on a jury.”

Where? I thought the US no longer had involuntary servitude or a military draft.”

Better look again, there is still a Selective Service and 18 year olds are required to register for the draft.

Just because no one is being drafted today doesn’t mean they can’t be tomorrow. The law is still in effect, just not being utilized, for now.
