U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan using Craigslist to have sex with each other on base
Mail Online ^ | 30 July 2013 | Daily Mail Reporter

U.S. soldiers deployed to Afghanistan are using Craigslist to meet and have sex with each other on bases across the war-torn country, leading to concerns about a breakdown in discipline overseas.

Military commanders have forbade any service members who are not married to each other from having sex while deployed to the combat zone. As a result, each of the covert meetings is a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

The vast majority of the posts on Craigslist involve male soldiers seeking sex with other men - a practice that could have resulted in the discharge of both parities from the military under Don't Ask Don't Tell, which barred gays in the armed forces.

Which is why I NEVER supported Romney - ever. Not even at the polls.

Spare us the “it’s always been this way” crap. No, it hasn’t. Otherwise, military moral and discipline would not be at an all-time low.

Gives a whole new meaning to the term combat readiness.

Now who was silly enough to think that this kind of thing wouldn't happen?

That sure didn’t take long.

I never really knew that CraigsList was available for places like this. I could not find Afghanistan, but did find Craigslist Iraq:

Are you kidding? They’ve got Patton lashed down so he can’t spin!

Geez this is awful. I heard of males getting it on with females in theater & thought well that’s normal, put both sexes together in a war zone or warship, and they will be gettin it on together in the natural way.

But this is disgusting beyond belief.

As a result, each of the covert meetings is a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

And those provisions will soon be mitigated away, considering the power of the homo movement now. So...very...sad.

You seriously believe there was no gay sex in the American military until the Obama Administration?

And here's a question: so is consenting soldiers having gay sex better, or worse, in your opinion, than the hundreds to possibly thousands of rapes of French women committed by American soldiers in World War II?

Homosexual men looking for a date usually just hang out late at night in a public toilet if that tells you anything.

No surprise here - a breakdown of morale and morality within the US Military when it’s own Commander In Chief is so absolutely Anti American, so anti-US military, and so Anti-Constitution.

If I were elected President, one of the first things I would do is repeal the repeal of DADT. Give walking papers to all who did not like. Second things I would do, make sure all training standards were identical for all members of the Armed Forces. No exceptions for sex. These standards would be very high.

We don’t have anybody who would do that right now, with exception of Allen West.

In a more sane age, George Washington knew how problems like homos in the military should be handled:

A quick google located only this passage:

“Head Quarters, V. Forge, Saturday, March 14, 1778: At a General Court Martial whereof Colo. Tupper was President (10th March 1778) Lieutt. Enslin of Colo. Malcom’s Regiment tried for attempting to commit sodomy, with John Monhort a soldier; Secondly, For Perjury in swearing to false Accounts, found guilty of the charges exhibited against him, being breaches of 5th. Article 18th. Section of the Articles of War and do sentence him to be dismiss’d the service with Infamy. His Excellency the Commander in Chief approves the sentence and with Abhorrence and Detestation of such Infamous Crimes orders Lieutt. Enslin to be drummed out of Camp tomorrow morning by all the Drummers and Fifers in the Army never to return; The Drummers and Fifers to attend on the Grand Parade at Guard mounting for that Purpose” [emphasis in the original].

And this presumably includes quite a bit of gay sex, though people like to function under the naive assumption that homosexuality was invented in 1968 by Commie Hippies or something.

It's never been to this level.. the repeal of DADT swung the doors open and they'll never be closed again.
