If the pilots had pictures of naked men, they would have been given medals.

Full Title: "Ex-Blue Angels leader who did nothing to stop sexual remarks and porn in the workplace gets a 'career-ending' letter of reprimand".
A former Blue Angels commander tolerated inappropriate sexual comments and naked pictures in the cockpits of the team's planes during his time as its leader, the Navy said Tuesday. (snip) The Navy said his command had explicit pornography, including photos of naked women, in aircraft cockpits; the painting of giant male genitalia in blue and gold on the roof of the center point trailer at the Blue Angels' winter training facilities in El Centro; and sexually charged, raunchy, and homophobic humor on maps and itineraries.

I really wish I could tell you that. I am traumatized by it.
“This is the most disturbing thing I have ever watched, I was hoping it was a gag, staged....these are United States marines!!!!?? “
Every parent I know has memorized the words to every Disney song. I laughed my bottom off. They’re just kids having fun.
I was in Wal-Mart and this really young Marine was behind me so I struck up a conversation. He was buying a bag of (Twizlers I think.) I noticed that was the only thing he had, a kid’s candy.

I was reading there's a shortage of commercial pilots. The Navy doesn't want him, some civilian carrier might. With any luck, he'll land (pun intended) a plum job with a large carrier for some serious $$$$.
>> a woman with a vendetta
A hate-crime by a male-ophobic
You got that right.
We sold Twizzlers at the snack bar at our boys’ high school baseball games. You would be amazed at how many adults love Twizzlers. And so does my hubby, but he uses our children as an excuse to buy them.
It was the homosexual stuff that got him canned. How can we have a society that is as sexually explicit, sexualized and pornned up as ours is and then fault this guy?
It’s as if morality is only for white males.
I've never seen gay-related aircraft nose art (and hope NOT to!!). ;-)
Yeah, but the passengers might not appreciate the aerobatics, ya know?
Not only morality, but manners, honesty, following the law, self-control, and all other what we could consider normal societal and family values.
Don't get me started!!
Yeah no kidding, after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor and all! :-O
PS how is everything with your friend’s mom and son? I still remember your fine tribute to a man gone way too soon.
Oh, please, please don’t send me back to the states!
Hell hath no fury like a woman *scorned*.
LOL! Well, the airline could advertise, no extra charge for the thrill ride. And how many times, recently, have you seen an airline give ANYthing away?? ;-)
The woman rumored to be responsible is newly married. But I don’t know why those in the know think it is this particular woman.
“It’s as if morality is only for white males.”
You just swerved into it. It’s merely an excuse to fire the guy. That’s all it is. Somebody had a vendetta against the captain — probably some junior officer in his unit — and this was the easiest, most convenient way to go outside the chain of command and ‘get’ the CO.
The “guns are laid” for certain subjects like homophobia and sexism. All that has to happen is somebody stands up and makes the accusation and the wheels of injustice begin to grind. The beauty part (from the accuser’s standpoint) is that they often get to remain anonymous.
There needs to be another purge in the military come 2016. Every POS liberal has to go. And everything returned to reality.
It was all because he wasn’t into celebrating LBGTQMNOP stuff, I guess. Wasn’t he set to become commander of some big California base? I am guessing.
You are correct and the justice dept too.
