Defense Secretary Ash Carter extended equal opportunity protection to sexual minorities at the Pentagons fourth Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Pride event Tuesday.
Gay and lesbian troops can now make claims of discrimination based on sexual orientation to the Military Equal Opportunity program, rather than inspectors general, USA Today reports.
According to Carter, what matters in the military is meritocracy. Discrimination has no place, as excluding LGBT troops, especially from serving their country, threatens national security.
Anything less is not just plain wrong, its bad defense policy that puts our future strength at risk, Carter noted.
With this policy revision, we are now ensuring that servicemembers are afforded protection against discrimination in the departments military equal opportunity program, provided to all military members, Pentagon spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Nathan Christensen told USA Today.
Army general Randy S. Taylor, master of ceremonies for the event, carried the proceeds forward by introducing his husband to the crowd. Taylor only came out as gay after the Pentagon removed the dont ask, dont tell policy in 2011 which previously allowed sexual minorities to serve, so long as they were not open about their identity. Taylor thanked his husband for all his years of forbearance and the crowd cheered as Carter shook his hand.
A following panel discussion included lesbian chapel and transgender Amanda Simpson, who can serve on the civilian side as executive director of the Office of Energy Initiatives in the Army. Simpson, who transitioned from male to female, informed the audience she wasnt the first openly transgender political appointee because of her orientation. Simpson maintained the meritocratic nature of the appointment.

So now “transgendered” sickos can make a complaint that they are being discriminated against by their fellow service members and ruin their career.
It’s even worse than that. The so-called “transgendered” can’t even decide which sex they are.
This is what happens when you let Liberal Media control the public's access to information. They get Liberals elected, and the Liberals do stuff like this.
Their day is coming—count on it.
Now, any of you homos touch me, and I'll kill you.
“Why is the military so fixated on sexual preference?”
Because their commander in chief forces them to.
That’s how the gay mafia works.
Check.
Only a few more moves until the military is completely destroyed by OBama. Next will be the openly transgendered commissioned and the taxpayers are required to pay for transgender surgery for any transgendered who enlists.
I was wondering how to strengthen the most powerful military in the history of the world....Hiring Caitlin Jenner never entered my mind......silly me!!
So he has a policy to integrate LGBTA as far in the military chain as possible, but not dealing with ISIS.
at the Pentagons fourth Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Pride event Tuesday.
I weep for America..............
Hey we might not have a plan in place to deal with ISIS and other THREATS to our Nation and people but by golly we are taking good care of all the homosexuals and transgenders...!
The top politicians who are designated in charge of the military care what people do below the belt. In fact, if one took the whole political activism out of a lot of it, there would be very few problems, with sexual behavior, race, or anything else, the political top brass and much of the population want to be superior to everyone else, so the game runs on.
I can see it now. A male General demanding the army pay for his sex change operation while wearing nylons, garter belt, and high heel shoes at a Chief of Staffs meeting. He/she then introduces his husband who is a rear admiral in the navy. Incidentally, they agreed to be married at the West Point Chapel. Far fetched? Well, let’s just see! Can you even imagine this scenario in WW II? No, nor could Generals Eisenhower, Marshall, Bradley, Patton and others.
Yes. Our enemies are laughing their a$$es off.
