People Are Panicking About Military Draft, Stop-Loss and IRR Activation. Here's the Reality
The day after a U.S. airstrike took out a prominent Iranian general in Iraq, the Selective Service System's website crashed.
"World War III" was trending on Twitter. Young people on social media were wondering whether ignoring that fine print on their federal student loan applications was going to land them in boot camp.
"We fat guys are safe. For now," one person joked on Twitter.
Some apparently flooded the Selective Service's website to see if they'd registered for the draft.
"Due to the spread of misinformation, our website is experiencing high traffic volumes at this time. If you are attempting to register or verify registration, please check back later today as we are working to resolve this issue," the Selective Service tweeted Friday. "We appreciate your patience."
