Pentagon To Hold First-Ever Gay Pride Event On Tuesday
US News ^ | 25 June 2012 | ELIZABETH FLOCK

Posted on 06/25/2012 5:22:08 PM PDT by moonshot925

Less than a year after the Defense Department's "Don't ask, don't tell" (DADT) policy toward gay and lesbian service members was repealed, the Pentagon says it will hold its first-ever Gay Pride event Tuesday.

The event is likely to be a more toned-down version of the Gay Pride parades that take place every June in cities around the world—sans the flags, wigs, beads and boas. (Though some have suggested rainbow camo or berets.)

Instead, the Pentagon has planned a somber-sounding panel discussion entitled "The Value of Open Service and Diversity," according to a Defense Department press release.

The event will also have a keynote speaker: the Pentagon's top lawyer Jeh Johnson, who co-chaired the 2010 study on how a DADT repeal might affect combat operations, housing and other issues, according to the Washington Post.

Faggotry and sodomy is celebrated by the US military. That’s the end of that fighting force. It is now a social experiment.

As has been said before. If God doesn’t do something about America He will have to apologize to Sodom and Gamorrah.

I wonder if they will call it a ‘casual dress’ day so the fags and faggettes will be able to wear their chaps (sans pants) and vests (sans shirts).

I am ‘sorry’ but I couldn’t bring myself to read this trashy article but is it MANDATORY for all to attend?

Good day to get that lobotomy you have been waiting for..

When hostilities in the Pacific ended in Aug 1945, my father's division remained on the Philippine island of Mindanao for four months awaiting transportation back to CONUS. After nearly two years of combat or preparation for combat, it became hard to maintain discipline when suddenly there was so little to do except wait. Illegal stills sprung up and other antics abounded. A homosexual in my father's company made himself known; he was attempting to proposition and molest other men. Upon learning of the situation, the First Sergeant told my father, “No problem.” He marched the sex pervert into the surrounding jungle, M1911A1 .45 sidearm in hand. Only the First Sergeant and the .45 returned. True story.

As recently as the late 1980s and for their own safety, we would hustle homos off the ship and out of the Navy. Inevitably, the perverts would make moves on hetero sailors, often in the berthing compartments after taps and lights out. During my last sea tour, two of them “mysteriously” disappeared overboard during blue water operations; no trace. Another true story.

I do not condone summary justice. But I less favor the orgy of celebration of an immoral and dangerous lifestyle choice the Bathhouse Barry administration is foisting on the U.S. Armed Forces. Homosexuality is incompatible with military readiness and maximum warfighting capacity, as well as being detrimental to morale and good order & discipline. There are "few problems" because any right-thinking service member who speaks up against the idiocy will be punished or run out of the military.

Does anyone in the military really want to risk and lay down their lives for this perversion? This is the “freedom” you’ll fight for?

This is amazing. I once received retribution for disobeying an unlawful order. I went to my Commander, explained why the order was unlawful and gave him the chance to rescind the order.

He said that it was a misunderstanding and he rescinded the order; but my career suffered.

Are the Senior ranks entirely contaminated with politically motivated scoundrels and perverts?

Hopefully the asshat loses and some sanity returns to dc. Meanwhile, the words uttered in the shakespear play Julius Caesar come to mind: The evil that men do lives long after them. Even if Romney wins, it will take two generations now to clean up the messes of Clinton and the current jerk. As a fairly religious person, I have problems wishing someone ill but I make an exception for his excellency, in fact, I wish him every evil and bad event that can happen in ones life for what he has done to this country. I hope he takes all those who voted for him or financially supported him to hell where they all belong for all eternity.

If Romney wins in November, he’s going to be under a huge amount of pressure to reverse this policy.


You may find it very difficult to put the toothpaste back into the tube. Lawyers will be grinning.

FUBO.

I posted a similar question in my local newspaper...what are they so proud about. Assuming that being homosexual is because they are “born that way” (which I don't buy, but we'll use it for the question), why be proud about it and have a parade? That would be like having a brown eye parade or a size 10 shoe parade.

Just because people are open about having someone of the same sex pleasure them, that isn't exactly an accomplishment. An accomplishment is something like going to the moon or separating yourself from a world power (Independence day).

These bastards would love to receive that order from the CIC. How times have changed. Our nation is truly lost.

Unless Romney and Congress end this travesty in January 2013, this will be what Pentagon Gay Pride Day looks like in 2015...

God in Heaven help us. Stop these evil people who are trying to destroy our children, our nation and our future. Wake up every American to the danger we are in with the politicans who have been making sinful laws and enacting legal orders to change the laws that You established. We stand with You God, rejecting their ways and ask that You delivers us all from this evil. Give us wisdom and guidance and direction on what we can do. No man can save us from the times we are living in; only You can. Have mercy on us and fill us with Your peace. Amen

By golly, you’ve hit on something!

Hit DOD where it really hurts, right in the good ol’ recruiting & retention stats!

“Sorry, recruiting sergeant, I’m not joining because the services are being overrun with out in the open queers and life in barracks or shipboard is already bad enough being jammed together like sardines without worrying about getting attacked in my bunk or the shower & what if my immediate supervisor is one of them, I can coldcock his faggy @ss but I’ll get court martialed just for doing what’s normal. No thanks, I’m out of here!”

Pains me to write this since I joined during Vietnam & retired just a year ago. It’s true, hear me Lord.

***During my last sea tour, two of them “mysteriously” disappeared overboard during blue water operations;***

I mentioned something like this here on FR a few weeks back and someone accused me of getting my ideas on homos in the military from the movies.

I spent four years in the USAF and every year we had assembly were read the riot act about homos in service, then had to sign a paper showing we had been at the assembly.

In basic we also had to serve one day of KP at the out processing HOMO barracks.

we were told we would see things unbelievable and we were not to laugh, point or joke about it.

Expect an increase in “Friendly Fire” and “Lost at Sea” reports.

I’m guessing your understanding of the U.S. military stems from an overconsumption of hollywood movies.***

Our country is lost. Our government endorses and is proud of sin. The Lord Jesus Christ will and is removing his hand of protection.

Like ancient Israel when they backslid into sin our fate is to be scattered and to go into captivity...either economic or physical.
