Commission Finds ‘No Compelling Medical Reason’ To Exclude Transgender Americans From Military
CBS San Francisco ^ | 3/13/14

Posted on 03/13/2014 2:34:00 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

An independent commission led by a former U.S. surgeon general has concluded there “is no compelling medical reason” for the U.S. armed forces to prohibit transgender Americans from serving and that President Barack Obama could lift the decades-old ban without approval from Congress, according to a report being released Thursday.

The report said Department of Defense regulations designed to keep transgender people from joining or remaining in the military on the grounds of psychological and physical unfitness are based on outdated beliefs that require thousands of current service members either to leave the service or to forego the medical procedures and other changes that could align their bodies and gender identities.

I’m not about to click the link. Any chance the former Surgeon General is Jocelyn Elders?

One step toward that awakening is Operation American Spring: May 16, 2014 Washington DC.

Savage seemed to be the only host with the balls to tackle this head on. Trannies in the military. Al Qaeda are TERRIFIED!

:: no compelling medical reason ::

This means the the military ^must^ provide testosterone and estrogen injects/pharma to maintain the soldier’s personal choice of gender assignment.

Pardon me general, but I choose to ingest a quart of whisky each day. The military should supply that to me...

Wait a minute-those who have had a surgical sex change must take hormones to keep up the appearance of being the opposite gender. I really doubt that those would be readily available in Afghanistan, Iraq, or wherever else there is combat-so how in the hell are these soldiers to be considered deployable? This sounds like a crock to me...

Klinger was trying to get out of the Army by cross dressing only Col. Potter wasn’t buying & that’s what made it comedy.

Muich worse are the recent rash of gay “weddings” in full uniform on active duty. That’s the real disease.

What’s called for now is a few unsolved barracks incidents involving queers and/or trannies. Bad incidents.

We have brought this on ourselves. We have become a silly culture, society, and country. We will be severely hurt for our infantile behavior and, probably, many will die.

Unfortunately, we will have deserved it.

An “independent commission” filled with far left radicals says there is no compelling reason? Why am I skeptical that the outcome was a foregone conclusion before they ever “studied” the possibility?

Put ‘em in an interrogations unit.

Love the idea of a muzzie realizing that they are about to be questioned by a shemale.
