Isn't he breaking the law with this declaration or has there been some change I didn't hear about?

[RC2]

He should be made to take showers with them. Our soldeirs have to.

[DarthVader]

He won’t need to when blanket party’s return.

[Jeff Chandler]

Fabulous!

[Afisra]

Didn’t know the CoS Army could just ignore UCMJ...

In that case, you better start building more housing for the gay troops and their partners. Everything a married troop gets, they get, including the big wet kiss before they’re shipped out at the unit departure.

They however, discharge whenever possible.

Even if he isn't he should resign after that remark.

Stand by for the harassment lawsuits, massive IG complaints and re-writes of the NCOERs and officer fitness reports due to “bias or homophobia” on the part of the rater. The gays will soon realize that they NOW have the power to change our military from the inside instead of from the outside.

I’m glad I retired in 1997. I doubt if I could make a full 20 now, or if I’d even enlist in the 1st place.

Sexual orientation has NO viable role to play in combat operations. What should always be behind closed doors, whether it be gay or hetero, should STAY behind closed doors, period.

“I’m gay, so give me a stateroom and my own shower.”

That’s how this destroys the army.

Gays will get their own rooms. Can’t have a communal bunk and shower structure. That situation is one bottle of astrolube away from a Castro Street porn set.

So, you’ll have the straight soldiers - they will eat, sleep, work, shower, bleed, and die like a team. Then you will have the gay soldiers, who will muster with everyone else, but only as ‘commuters’. They’ll be ‘amongst’ the soldiers, but not a part of them.

Hence, you can’t win.

I hope and pray we'll get a real American patriot statesman as president and these phony perfumed princes can be kicked out and go work for a defense contractor which is what most of them do....

who would want their son to join a group where homosexuals are allowed to roam around in showers and bathrooms.

then it will lead to a shortage of course...then the draft...and then good normal young men will be forced to be the eye candy for these perverts...

[circlecity]

"..he would not discharge gay personnel"

Man, that just sounds nasty.

[MSF BU]

Did it say “Hot-Bottom” issue? Some editor has a good sense of humor.

[mowowie]

Well i was just about to join the army but the thought of some guy staring at me in the shower and touching me at night while i’m sleeping doesn't sit to well with me so, Nevermind.

[ViLaLuz]

Disgusting. Extremely poor leadership.
