If having to serve with a gay person is enough to make them abandon the defense of their nation, the military is better off without them.

It’s not just about working with them. I have worked with openly gay people. I was not naked in front of them in communal showers, sleep in the same rooms with them, nor basically spend my whole 24x7 time with them. It is way bigger than just a few hours working with them.

If having to have a gay person serve in the military is enough to make 10% of the soldiers abandon the defense of their nation, the military is better off without them.

You have no idea what you're talking about, do you.

Colonel Discharged Over Homosexuality
The Army has discharged a decorated lieutenant colonel just one week shy of the 20-year career mark that would have entitled him to full retirement benefits after his home was burned down and a firefighter found a videotape of the colonel engaging in sex acts with other men....By all accounts, Colonel Loomis kept his homosexuality a private matter. His sexuality became an issue to the Army only after his home, near his station at Fort Hood, Tex., was burned down last year. The arsonist was a 19-year-old Army private who had posed for nude photographs for Colonel Loomis. The private said he had burned down the house to destroy the pictures.

“If having to serve with a gay person is enough to make them abandon the defense of their nation, the military is better off without them”.

...with me it would be about the “slippery slope” a move like this makes. Military personnel serve because they love their country. This makes them love it less. Why fight for a Marxist who will only impose further restrictions. This is one of many changes to come to our military.

I’m afraid at the risk of being totally flamed, I agree.

I have known some manly gays and even manlier lesbians. Some I’ve seen had a few men running from their wrath.

You are full of it. Most (not all) of our military comes from conservative areas of the South and Midwest and a repeal of the Gay Ban would kill recruitment and be another cause and effect (out of many other reasons)on our long road to self-destuction or Civil War II.

If a nation is intent upon inflicting perverted sodomites upon it's noble young defenders, that nation might be better off without a defense.

A nation that forcibly inflicts open sex perverts upon honorable military personnel is no longer an honorable nation.

“If having to serve with a gay person is enough to make them abandon the defense of their nation, the military is better off without them.”

If turning the military into some kinds of fag infested social program is what the people want for their military, proving no one is serious about defense, why would anyone place their life on the line for such stupid people? If you can’t be serious why should they?

You'd rather they abandon their core values?

This is not about military readiness...its about another American institute battlefield that the gays want to conquer on the way to full celebration of perversion.
