I haven't seen this posted yet, so my apologies if this is a repeat.

I suppose most will just shrug this off and let it pass, but why do the patriots in this country allow this garbage to continue?

There isn’t one flippin’ place in the Constitution where it says that a soldier cannot say, Merry Christmas. It’s time to start putting these fags like this EO officer in jail for violating the First Amendment rights of another American. Put a few of these maggots in prison and this kind of crap will stop really quick.

Equal opportunity officer? Is this true?

Sounds just like the political officers in the old Soviet military.

“It’s unbelievable that the Army would ban ‘Christmas’ like it’s a bad word,” said Michael Berry, an attorney with the Liberty Institute, a legal firm representing the unidentified soldier.


Would that be this Michael Berry?

I clicked on this thread to type that exact sentiment.

I can see that an officer would, as part of his training, be ready to ensure that people weren’t judged other than by their readiness for duty.

As soon as you have an officer whose whole job is to ensure compliance with current political memes, you have the NKVD all over again.

And so, if the Equal Opportunity Officer at Camp Shelby hears the evil words “Merry Christmas” is he going to write up the offender for a UCMJ Article 15 nonjudicial punishment? And what would this pompous jerk think a fair sentence might be? This jerk needs to be taken to the woodshed for a good spanking by his commanding officer — yesterday.

ZAMPOLIT

The Russian term for the political cops shadowing all officers in The old Soviet Union, even on submarines.

WELCOME TO THE USSA.

Once they let open gays in the military the suppression of Christian speech and faith was bound to happen.

How did your Congressman vote?

The equal opportunity officer immediately objected to the usage of the word “Christmas.”

everyone is equal except Christians

Somehow Christians are not included in “Equal Opportunity”

What is the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute? Do they force everyone to be deniers of Christ? Who are these people and what is the point except to shut up Christians? What happened to Christians who waged war against the Followers of the Prophet? What have we become? Merry Christmas!

Something important to ponder:

Why are efforts at secularization especially strong in the Army?

Because the leadership knows it is THOSE guys who will most receive orders to fire on Americans after the dollar goes kaput.

So there is a RACE on to create the army that the leadership NEEDS.

Ahh, it’s happening due to the Commander in chief being Hussein Obama. He prefers “Allah, Akbar” not “Merry Christmas”.
