The American Civil Liberties Union of Maryland filed one lawsuit there, while the Human Rights Campaign and other organizations filed a separate challenge in Washington state. The organizations say they’re representing trans persons either looking to enlist or already serving in the military.

[antidemoncrat]

Wrong. You can volunteer but the military does not have to take you. The military can draft you and then reject you. The whining generation better wake up.

[bboop]

If they don’t take folks who need orthodonture, they darned well should not take folks who need important things cut off.

[faithhopecharity]

One of the stupidest ( and most ridiculous) legal claims I’ve ever seen.

[familyop]

If the Constitution guarantees such a right, then every severely pathological person has the same right. In other words, no.

[SpaceBar]

There is no ‘right’ to serve in the military, and the ACLU needs to be taken down like the legal RICO outfit they are.

So I have a constitutional right to be a Top Gun fighter pilot, even if I am too rotund to fit in the flight suit, need corrective glasses and have diabetes?

Sure, since I need the military’s superb health insurance...

Beside, Top Gun fighter pilots get all the young chicks. I saw it in a movie.

They turned me down after 9/11 because I was 5 11, 240.

I had boxed about 7 years earlier at 210.

Seems if THAT was unacceptable, transgenders are CERTAINLY unacceptable!!!

[relictele]

a right to serve? contradiction in terms.

Who gives a rat sass what a pervert group says?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Good point.

The military has various standards, various minimal requirements. Being transwhat ever seems to be a big liability to me. Of course we know liberals see the world differently.

[Intolerant in NJ]

Not so - people have been excluded from service for issues as small as having too many tattoos.....

[euram]

There are dozens, maybe hundreds of things which disqualify someone from serving. If we let trannies in, then we should like in all the people with very low IQ’s, those missing a limb or two, the blind, old people, the extremely obese, bedwetters, criminals, everyone.

So do adulterers have a constitutional right to serve? I’m just curious, where is their line in the sand drawn when it comes to the uniform code of military justice?

[Newbomb Turk]

Well I expect the 9th Circus to rule they do, then be overturned by the Supreme Court.

Is Ruth Bader Ginsburg still alive ?

Tick Tock...

[P-Marlowe]

Try enlisting with a Nazi or Commie tattoo.

It’s not fair!!!!!!!

Do they also have a constitutional right to take their psychiatrists with them into battle?

[Sacajaweau]

Sorry....Trump trumps. He's CIC. His call.

And besides....it's been that way for years....Obama just played his games.

[wjcsux]

I was turned down for Navy flight school because of an insignificant heart murmur. Maybe i should sue.

Judge shopping.

Next up, FA-18 jets will need to be ACA compliant.
