When did the military start accepting the mentally ill?
For sure.
Transpandering.
Yeah, this is much more important than Border Security.
These next two years, with every Democrat running for ‘president’, we’ll see every cockamamie bill they can conjure and throw out to get the attention of their ‘base’, such as it is.
They know it has ZERO CHANCE of passing into law, but they’ll get to proclaim their self-righteous indignation at their ‘bill’ not getting thru the EVIL REPUBLICAN SENATE OR THE EVIL TRUMP’S DESK.
Two years of kabuki theater and fictitious bills to waste time and money................................
Only if they are limited to serving as mobile artillery targets. I guess the M.O.S. could be flexible.
Let’s wrap this Freepathon up, Folks!
“...it undermines our military readiness...”
Just how the hell does it “undermine our military readiness” when only 0.6 percent of adults are transgender and out of those even fewer are of military age...
How friggin’ stupid can the democrats get??????
Right after a little over half of voting age Americans showed their insanity by electing a foreign, race hustling, bath house warrior, liar as our President.
Day by day Collins is becoming a larger pain in the ass!
Social engineering has no place in national defense issues. People should not have to die to make make someone feel good about themselves, Their suicide rate is far above the non-transgender population. That is a risk to readiness, not to mention a threat to unit cohesion. I also oppose females in combat because males act to protect them, and that makes them a threat to the safety of the unit when under fire. The bottom line rule should be:
Don’t do anything to undermine fighting capability, safety and readiness.
Your photo #5 is very, very wrong!
Well said Bump!
The way to find out how sincere the Democrats are only need to be offered these amendments:
1. You wear the uniform of your birth sex.
2. You cannot get trans surgery while in military service.
3. You are held to the same standards as your assigned sex.
See what the rats say.
How does the presence of transgender members of the military service improve our military preparedness?
The short answer is, it does not improve a darned thing, and in a combat unit, it could seriously impair the ability of the unit to respond to circumstances.
But perhaps that is the objective. Just to make things “fair” when US troops are engaged in military struggle with an opposing force (which would NOT be constrained by rules about “inclusiveness” of various demographics).
In the eyes of the Progressive left, “fair” means that the US loses just about every one of the military engagements with inferior forces that represent some kind of “command and control” ideology.
Which the President will veto.
