FULL TITLE: 'I would like to see them try to kick me out of my military': Transgender service members remain defiant in the face of Trump's ban

Dozens of Transgender members of the US military have spoken out after President Donald Trump said they would be barred from serving 'in any capacity' on Wednesday.

'I would like to see them try to kick me out of my military,' US Air Force Staff Sgt. Logan Ireland told the Air Force Times.

A Marine military police officer who asked not to be named also told the Times: 'I have never described myself as trans; I'm a motherf***ing Marine. That's all that matters. Don't tarnish my title with your bigotry and fear of the unknown.'

During the last year of the Obama administration, former Defense Secretary Ash Carter instituted a policy allowing transgender people to serve openly in the military.

But he also gave the military a year to come up with a way to implement the policy.

On Wednesday morning, Trump was intent on reversing that policy, sending out a series of tweets saying transgender people wouldn't be allowed to serve in the U.S. military 'in any capacity'.

'After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow.. transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.

How about the drugs they have to take maintain their maleness. As a vet I don’t think an individual pumped up on testosterone is some one I have backing me up. Front lines are tense enough without someone over pumped on on a abnormal drug in their system.

Next question is how will the military rid themselves of them?

The commander-in-chief has spoken. It's up to the military to carry out his order.

They can assign them all to special forces and send them to fight ISIS.

This is the way to fix the problem.

Operation Get Behind The Trannies.

Instead of discharges or surgery, simply put the recruits who are sexually deviant (trannies and homos) in a battalion consisting just of themselves.

Boot camp/basic training is way too hard and traumatic for such sensitive souls. So the PC Battalion only needs to be ordered, untrained, into combat areas.

And the Cannon Fodder squads cannot be discharged. If they go AWOL, their citizenship is revoked and they become the enemy. A little bit of lead can go a long way when your target is slowed down by wearing a wig and a dress.

They are bringing up Kristin Beck, a former Seal Team 6 who has won many medals. But that is not a fair comparison, as ( she) did not transition until after retired. This person is demanding to meet face to face with the President.

IMO, the military is not for social experiments.

Of the top 25 military powers in the world (http://www.globalfirepower.com/countries-listing.asp), only the following five countries allow transsexuals to serve in the military: France, United Kingdom, Germany, Israel, and Australia.

Testosterone causes unusual rage in people who take it. It’s just not for making one’s neck look like a tree stump. How is this allowed except in the case of necessary medical treatment???

When confronted The meme the baby killers known as democrats are going to be using is the reintegration of our armed forces.
When that comes up just recall who segregated them (President Wilson)and who reintegrated them (President Eisenhower). Also going “tranny” is a personal elective making it like this; One doesn’t like the way their ears or nose looks, ie like cosmetic surgery. Why should we be paying for that ?

Since it was a tweet I am a little confused with the order. Since the military didn't come up with a policy of integration yet, is it just case of back to status quo. Other words, if you have a penis but feel like a woman, keep it to yourself and you can continue to serve?

There is no appeal for a medical discharge. Use it.

One of Mrs. JimRed’s brothers served 16 years in the Army and was medically discharged for a bum knee. Got a small disability payment but they wouldn’t let him stay in an appropriate job until he got his 19 and 6 in for retirement.

So why should the mentally challenged get a pass?
