Because television. You can literally do anything; you can make any ridiculous thing happen. TV is 98% cultural marxism.
The whole idea behind dropping the ban on homosexual behavior was homosexual behavior was private and did not require any changes to how the military operated. In reality, close quarters and use of common hygiene facilities by one party who is sexually attracted to another is not an issue of private behavior, but this was viewed as manageable via military good order and discipline backed up by the UCMJ.
Transgender is a totally different issue because it does go specifically to rules affecting public behavior. For example, what uniform does one wear? What common hygiene facility does one use? And of course, what about gender sex specific requirements such as physical fitness standards, body fat maximums, etc.?
And who acts as an observer for an observed urinalysis drug test?
Gawd, how I wish we could focus on real issues.
And if history is accurately reported, they'll say that that's precisely what Obama intended.
I can see it now. “Hey, private! Let’s go get it on.”
“Sir, I am a male tranny.”
“That’s ok. I’m gay, private!”
“I may be a tranny, but I’m into chicks. I can’t wait to get the operation so I can become a lesbian, sir.”
“I strongly suggest that you try gay sex. It might help your career.”
“Sir, that’s sexual harassment, and I don’t have to take it.”
“INCOMING!”
“Let’s share a foxhole and talk it over.”
“This Obozo traitor is going to rev up the pace of depravity these last 6+ months.”
I started posting here around 2 years ago that Obama was going to bring his “scortched earth” policy during his last 6 months in office. It has already begun.
As a man who commanded a company of Montagnards in combat with the help of great SF NCO’s and another company in Korea of regular army infantry troops, I can flat out state this will get people killed. The CO,1SGT,platoon leaders, squad leaders and all down to your lowest ranking EM have enough to worry about,with the continuous training in squad and platoon tactics, mortars, map reading, navigation, commo,adjusting arty fire plus so much more that you damn sure do not have time for this. There is so much going on in a rifle company no one needs more bull s-—t.
It is not really an Army anymore. Sad.
THAT is NOT a REAL PICTURE....is it???
