Gays in the military have always been there, and have been accepted. However, under lib-O-diot rules, they’ll want more than equal treatment. Just wait.
Every disciplinary action taken against a perp who happens to be gay will be translated into a prejudicial action against a gay who was driven to be a perp by (choose any or all): parents, capitalism, military life, Bush, Catholic Church, Bambi.
I agree, there’s always been gays in the military but they were not the in-your-face variety, this will change that.
There are two simple questions to ask...which would be curious how they are answered.
First, if we deploy to a country where homosexuality is illegal and a crime...are there going to be issues? I can think of eight countries we currently are in...and there will issues within weeks of implementation. What’s our course with these countries?
Second, when a gay military couple comes up to a military chaplain and ask to be married...and the chaplain’s faith forbids him from taking this action...do you fire the chaplain? I suspect that eighty percent of the chaplains we have now...are already thinking about this question. How do you handle this?
