In line with Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s order for troops to have their workplaces searched for “degrading or offensive” materials—part of an attempt to curb sexual assault in the military—the Navy will inspect even its bathrooms.

While what’s degrading or offensive is open to interpretation, the material can include song lyrics and “inappropriate cartoons.”

In a memo sent on June 13, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered that all sailors, Marines, cadets and civilian employees have their workplaces searched by June 28.

Sure, right after we bounce him off the “walls”, the “floor”, the “ceiling” and make him fall down the “stairs” a couple of times. After all that we'll toss him out the “door.”

Gub'mnt quarters ~ there is no art ~ however, with respect to civilian personnel working for the federal government the Supreme Court has carved out a zone of privacy such that a complainant can be charged with all sorts of things and hauled away.

That way the office lady thug doesn't get to push you around for having a messy desk.

The data showed a 20% in male on male sexual assaults. That means that Obama's efforts to improving gay living conditions in the military is paying off ~ for them!

The Navy here is attempting to divert our attention from the real facts ~ the skyrocketing homosexual rape attacks!

Two homosexuals can booty bust each other in the Navy bathrooms but God help the man that has a pinup!

The MEN of WWII would never have made it in this Navy.
