One of the things we predicted when the infamous crime against nature was dropped as a bar to military service was an inevitable descent into moral and sexual debauchery in our armed forces.
And we were right.
Homosexual conduct is immoral, unnatural and unhealthy. There are a host of pathologies associated with male homosexual conduct, including random, promiscuous, anonymous sex, a highly elevated risk of HIV/AIDS and a proclivity toward sexual violence.
This is not a lifestyle any rational society, let alone its military, should embrace or support.
Now we are getting more information about just how twisted and dangerous this lifestyle is.
According to the Daily Mail, a prominent newspaper in the UK, male on male rape in the United States military is reaching epidemic proportions.
Absorb this tragic excerpt:
When a man enters the military he is ten times likelier to be sexually abused, and in 2012 alone there were an estimated 14,200 reports of male rape.
Read that again. A man who enlists in the United States military is ten times more likely to be on the receiving end of sexual abuse than if he remains in the civilian population. The risk of being raped jumps a staggering 1,000 percent.
Our military has become a playground for sexual predators, a veritable smorgasbord of victims for homosexuals on the prowl.
It would be stupendously stupid not to accept the plain fact that, as the public becomes aware of these sordid and tragic realities, recruitment, retention, readiness and morale will plummet.
Here are some excerpts from this article:
In a recent GQ article, more than a dozen veterans and current service men came forward to tell of their sexual assault, and how the military institution failed time and time again to bring their predators to justice or get them the psychiatric help they needed…Steve Stovey, Navy: ‘As a man, I can’t perform the way I used to. I just feel damaged. All I remember, along with the pain, is the slapping sound of being raped. I try to make love to my wife, but I can’t – I’m triggered. I’m traumatized by that sound.’
This is problematic since men are much less likely to report these incidents, leaving their attackers in positions of power and keeping the pain inside to boil over into other relationships.
The power structure within the military also makes these attacks more prevalent, because men in lower ranks may find it hard to report their attackers if they are superiors.
‘When a gunnery sergeant tells you to take off your clothes, you better take off your clothes. You don’t ask questions,’ former Marine Sam Madrid (name changed) said…
Kole Welsh, Army, 2002 – 2007: ‘I had actually let the assault go, because I didn’t want it to interfere with my career. I wanted to be an officer, and I just said, “Bad experience, won’t let that happen again.” But there was some residual damage. A month and a half later, I was brought into a room with about nine officers and told, “You’ve tested positive [for HIV].” I was removed from the military and signed out within a day. It was a complete shock…’
And when the men aren’t silencing themselves, the military is doing it for them by discharging victims for misdiagnosed personality disorders and letting their attackers continue to serve.
Trent Smith, Air Force, enlisted 2011: ‘He was a senior aide—he had a direct line to the top. Being invited over to his house, I just took it as I should go. Looking back, I ask myself, Why didn’t you do anything? It wasn’t like he held me down or tied me up. I didn’t want to cross him. I really didn’t feel like I had any choice. I had just turned 19. It could be my career. I froze and went along with it.’
Because sodomy is now a most-favored sexual proclivity in President Obama’s military, male victims of rape have no one to tell without placing their military careers in jeopardy.
And they have a vanishingly small chance of getting justice if they do complain. “[T]he military justice system…has only convicted 7 per cent of all MSP cases that go to trial, which is why an estimated 81 percent of victims never even report.”
In other words, in 2012 there were almost certainly more than the 14,200 male-on-male rapes that we know about. Our military has become a cesspool of homosexual degeneracy.
“Meanwhile,” concludes the Daily Mail, “the victims continue to suffer in silence.”
Here’s what GQ says on this subject:
Sexual assault is alarmingly common in the U.S. military, and more than half of the victims are men. According to the Pentagon, thirty-eight military men are sexually assaulted every single day. These are the stories you never hear—because the culprits almost always go free, the survivors rarely speak, and no one in the military or Congress has done enough to stop it.
And according to GQ:
Men develop PTSD from sexual assault at nearly twice the rate they do from combat…Military sexual trauma causes a particularly toxic form of PTSD. The betrayal by a comrade-in-arms, a brother in whom you place unconditional trust, can be unbearable. Warrior culture values stoicism, which encourages a victim to keep his troubles to himself and stigmatizes him if he doesn’t. An implacable chain of command sometimes compels a victim to work or sleep alongside an attacker, which can make him feel captive to his suffering and deserving of it.
A weakened, enervated, morally eviscerated military compromises its ability to do its job and it makes us all less safe.
Bottom line: it is long past time to reinstate the ban against homosexuality in the United States military. Our national security depends upon it.

I don’t see how you can be expected to defend yourself from the enemy, when there are such praetors right behind and above you in the foxhole.
The ex-Navy homosexual who is the current poster boy pushing rape of males is important.. raped women an afterthought.....a big yawn...
Oh but none of the 26,000 rapists are homosexuals..
Hes the #1 witness on the congressional panels...
and the #1 speaker at the summits on rape in the military for women veterans..
Hes pathetic..
" In 2012, a confidential Pentagon survey estimated that 26,000 men and women were sexually assaulted. Of those, 3,374 cases were reported. In contrast, 5,061 cases were reported last year.
I'd go with the REPORTED numbers. I doubt any rape victim would not report.
There is absolutely NO EVIDENCE of an enormous surge of homo rape in the US Military. And those who have served likely have the same intuition as I do.
That sh!t simply would not be tolerated.
In spite of what crusaders choose to believe without evidence.

From the article written by a female Marine (read it, it's a good read) who supports no women in infantry.
Few jobs are as physically and emotionally demanding as the infantry, so to keep Marines focused, the infantry operates in a cult-like brotherhood. The infantry is the one place where young men are able to focus solely on being a warrior without the distraction of women or political correctness. They can fart, burp, tell raunchy jokes, walk around naked, swap sex stories, wrestle, and simply be young men together. Although perhaps not the most polite environment, this is the exact kind of atmosphere that promotes unit cohesion and the brotherly bond that is invaluable.
I am in the military and so is my son. The vast majority of our military is honorable. No doubt. My son is a corpsman and serves with marines, and I would put him and most of his friends up against any from the Greatest Generation.
That doesn’t change the fact that civilian and military leadership is not only condoning immorality, they are actively encouraging it. The rank and file are still attending church and praying in their foxholes,but the brass are promoting ungodly behavior and trying to remove every vestige of the Christian faith.
The sexual assaults are real. The overall scale is hard to judge, but the number of male on male assaults already exceeds that of male on female, and it continues to climb. That is an undeniable fact. You can look at the statistics from all the services—and that is only the reported incidents. Most men will simply not report it.
And in all of of the sexual assault “training,” the scenarios are male on female. No one dares mention the undeniable truth that homosexuals are already engaging in unnatural acts and rape is part of the culture. Many studies show that the vast majority of homosexual men began that lifestyle by being sexually assaulted.
There were some in the Army in the late 60’s and early 70’s. I know of one who was killed in Vietnam by his fellow soldiers because he tried some funny crap.
You can bet that still happens. Guys may not go the the JAG or SARC, but they will get revenge privately. I have heard of some guys beat almost to death, and there are many who wouldn’t stop there.
No justice, no peace...
If our children don’t serve, you abandon the last refuge of our freedom. They will have to fight in two directions at times, but that is the world we live in. This surrender-monkey isolationist crap is not American. Stand up and fight!
People like you surrendered the schools, the courts, the media. When does it end? Do you stand when they knock at your door?
Hell no. NOBODY fights for them. Why in the hell would I recommend to my kid a stint in a military that is rapidly looking like prison life.
And I resent your BS comment about my having “surrendered” the schools, media and courts. I served for years on PTAs, interacted with the media for 24 years in the military and have served on juries. Don’t throw that crap my way.
And yet you expect your children to stay ensconced in some safe haven? I’m sorry. My son and I are both in the military and have no intention of leaving it to the reprobates. The military is still filled with some of the finest folks in the world
I really was not trying to insult you or your service, but I get sick of hearing conservatives and Christians telling others to keep their children out of danger and out of the service.
I believe we are called to serve and suffer. Not serving is surrendering in my book. Sorry if that’s too harsh, but I live in a harsh real world.
Active Duty ping.
What I expect is that my kids understand this modern military is led by a dangerously anti-American regime. I have absolutely no trust in this government to do right by our country and our troops.. none. My kids will make the ultimate decision about joining the military, but I have strongly urged they don’t. Not while that evil cabal is running the show.
I understand your feelings, believe me. This is my second dangerously anti-American regime I have served under. I don’t trust them and I don’t trust the brass to protect us. But I do know I can still trust those I work with and for. The boots on the ground are still Americans.
God bless you and I truly hope your kids can find somewhere to take a courageous stand.
I am an infantry vet of WWII with duty in the Pacific . I recollect a couple of guys in basic training who might have been ‘queer’ but none overseas. I recognize/accept that there are many young fellows since WWII that have fought and died in hard battle. However one factor we had to deal with was we were not coming home to the USA unless we were dead, or seriously wounded or the shooting stopped. To put the men ,and ladies, of WWII i.e. the ‘Greatest Generation’, in the light that you have is a disservice to my generation. By the way, my brother was killed on Okinawa and I was told the story of his dying because in those days there was no way to keep badly wounded soldiers in battle field environments alive. After the war I got a first hand account of my brothers death from a corpsman who had been a childhood /neighborhood buddy.
