You know I could be wrong. This guy makes some good points:

I’ve been in the field in Germany with female personel. I always wondered, if the Russians cross line and this is for real will we shoot them or just give them some K-rations and bid them adeiu, advising them to be nice to the Russians when they come. They certainly did not add to the fighting potential of the unit, rather they detracted.

having homosexuals brings all other problems into the military now, what’s next homo pride parades on base, homo parties etc.

Yep, and this decision to let them serve openly will make my choice to leave after 35+ years much easier.

I can’t wait to see the new design for the ‘Fire Island’ class nuclear attack submarine. You have quarters for straight men, straight women, gay men, lesbians, transexuals, and bi-curious. There are no weapons systems, and provisions must be dropped by helo every two days or the crew starves.

We are truly led by the biggest bunch of morons ever. They think its a game.

thanks for your service, you did a hell of a lot more years than I.

I still know guys who are serving and some of them have told me over the last few days that if this is implemented then they will be leaving the military,

The military stands for tradition and morals, this is why they attack the military .
They are attacking on so many different fronts, it started on the boy scouts and now they attack in our schools, military, groups , churches etc.

Instead of us always defending ourselves and our institutions we need to go on the attack and say no more of their crap and we need to pass laws where they have no chance in the courts of overturning this.

If he gets rid of don’t ask then the first call should be to scrap it and then make law. Then tell the homosexuals that they are now not going to be helped in their agenda, no more trying to find reason with them, no more of seeing if we can meet them half way.

They just wanted civil unions and as soon as they get it they say they want their sham marriage.
They force their sham on the voters , so now the voters get to vote on the issue where the homosexuals now say no way we’ll find another way.

they know they are not accepted but they keep trying knowing that if they keep this up our kids will grow up hearing about this and then those kids will think nothing of it.
I have 3 young kids and I have had t tell them in so many words already about the homosexual agenda and how teachers , TV, radio, hollywood try to brainwash them.
I just hope more parents do the same otherwise we let these perverts win

I agree that sexual perversion cannot be totally eliminated but to “tolerate” or legalize it is the worst thing that could happen to the military.

There has to be a culture of NON-tolerance and NON-acceptance of homosexuality in the military. Actually in all public life.

I do not hate homosexuals. I hate the homosexual agenda.

Yes, there are a lot of military, especially the older ones who will be leaving in this is enacted. I know some retired NCOs and officers who are so glad they are already out.

They are like me, when basic training was hard and we did not have coed ranks. Now this hits and we will have some BS decisions that are made by the SR enlisted and officers in DC.

Pandora’s box comes to mind. This won’t go over well in the military, nor will it work well.
