Pentagon Had Plans for 'Gay Bomb'

Pentagon Had Plans for 'Gay Bomb'

The Pentagon considered a proposal to create a hormone bomb that could turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

U.S. military officials told KPIX-TV in San Francisco that a "gay bomb" was on the drawing board in 1994 but then subsequently rejected.

The discovery was made by Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project. Using the Freedom of Information Act, he found a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.

The "gay bomb" was part of an effort to develop non-lethal weapons. The proposal for the weapon stated: "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

So are they blaming San Francisco on a weapons test accident?

But, But, homosexuality is genetic! Something like this wouldn’t have worked! /sarcasm.

Obviously science knows that it’s a choice, and this proves it. It’s just not PC to admit it.

Is this satire? It has to be.

Oh my goodness—I think there are a few areas in the US that they used as test subjects first.

LOL

This story is years old. There must be some reason it is being resurrected.

This is not the source from which I recall the story, lol.

It is still partly genetics! Hormones and gene transcription factors are coded for by genes, and of course you can chemically interfere in signal transduction pathways and into hormone receptors just as you can in treating depression. Read up on your science please.
Otherwise, I agree this would be a fun weapon to use against Al Qaida.

The Wright Laboratory document also included many other off-beat ideas, such as spraying enemy troops with bee pheromones and then hiding numerous beehives in the combat area. Don’t know if the bees were gay though.

Years ago, I remember the dominant media had a story that the Pentagon was secretly developing a pill that would be given to our troops that would take away all emotions from them, and make them un-feeling killing machines. There was absolutely no morsel of truth to this. It’s amazing what kooky ideas America-hating leftists can concoct.

Of course, back then in the 1980’s, we only had ABC/CBS/NBC/newspapers. Back then, the media could broadcast any kooky leftist theory as “fact”, and a large amount of Americas would think: “Well, if it was on tv or in the newspaper, it must be true!” We still have too many Americans thinking that way (unfortunately alot of them still vote), but the rock of the base of the American Fourth Estate has greatly collapsed. So it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of people will believe the "gay bomb" as pure liberal gospel.

That is a false argument. It has been consistently rebuffed by the scientific community.There is no race of homosexuals, it is a behavioral phenomena reinforce by homosexual molestation, rape, assault and severely decayed liberal social standards. You can forget about proving it, you're simply wrong and there is no sustainable evidence for you to provide.

It's another reason why homosexuals have been "cured" and the rest of them can be saved. We will continue to hope to save them from themselves. Sad that there is such a lack of compassion in our own culture that liberals are content to display them like some sick, twisted freak show. Our society is damned by the lack of effort to reach out and help them.

The "genetic disorder" argument is simply a reason to "dispose and forget" about an entire generation of fellow human beings. It's an inhumane position and I refuse to simply abandon them to the embrace of a culture of death. We can't forget them, they can be cured.

"a 'gay bomb' was on the drawing board in 1994 but then subsequently rejected."

Resurrect it. It could be the answer to population control. And an effective long term strategy for reducing the size of the enemy's military.

BTW, did they confine their experiments to animal testing?

Also...are you sure some of this stuff didn't leak into the water in a few places?

I think they completed the bomb, and detonated it in every major television and film studio, and newspaper board room across America.

What a queer story.

Instead of the “Doomsday Device”, let’s call it the “Broke Back Bomb”.
