Pentagon Ends Ban on Transgender Soldiers
Breitbart News ^ | June 30, 2016 | Staff

Posted on 06/30/2016 1:06:40 PM PDT by Enchante

The Pentagon announced Thursday that transgender people will be allowed to serve openly in the U.S. military, ending one of the last bans on service in the armed forces.

Saying it’s the right thing to do, Defense Secretary Ash Carter laid out a yearlong implementation plan declaring that “Americans who want to serve and can meet our standards should be afforded the opportunity to compete to do so.” ....

Under the new policy, by Oct. 1, transgender troops should be able to receive medical care and begin formally changing their gender identifications in the Pentagon’s personnel system.

And a year from now, he said, the military services will begin allowing transgender individuals to enlist, as long as they meet the required standards and have been stable in their identified gender for 18 months.

They’re even going to force us all to pay for everything .... adding a risk that lots more freaks will enlist in order to have their “transition” surgery etc. paid for.

Is there even a Section 8 discharge anymore? What do you have to do to get one?

Expect a lot more of this in the coming months, until that bum in the white house is finally gone.

In this day and age, not only would Corporal Klinger not be drummed out, he would get a promotion.

Machiavelli stated that a great way to destroy a nation was to promote Vice in the military. it will work everytime with the nature of power.

As Montesquieu and ALL Founding Fathers knew, it is essential to promote Virtue in a Just Law. That is why Justice Marshall stated all unjust laws (ones that promote vice/unequal “laws”, irrational “laws”) are “null and void”. Nuremberg Trials reiterated that fact.

Remove Just Laws and you have a Vice System-—just like a cartel system—Rule of Man (or oligarchy) like we have now.

There is no virtue in our Justice System-—and Justice is the Queen of Virtue in Western Civilization which is being destroyed for the Marxist irrational utopia of the psychopathic sodomites like Soros and Kissinger who celebrate with their worship of the he/she goat god and sacrifices of young boys.

We all know that the muslim, sodomite, CIC wants to destroy Christianity—wipe out the Christian Worldview off the face of the earth so he can return socialism and destroy Free Will/individualism—Only slavery for the masses so he has to destroy Reason and Logic in our children by promoting evil as good and boys are girls, to make them into irrational stupid idiots, etc.

At this point, if a Christian country invaded the USA, I would look to them as our liberators. I would not take up arms against them and instead relish taking vengeance on all the liberal degenerate scum that turned this country into the evil hell hole it is now.

I hope Trump cleans house but this is one of his weak points. Still - I suspect he might draw the line with the military.

...and America’s military is weakened once again.

Ash Carter, the Valerie bootlicker, continues to add to the perversion of our country.

He and Hussein are failures.
