Depends on the superior. In this case I would be happy to see a fellow soldier identifying stupidity.
stand against this or it will become routine.
First Amendment rights baby! Take them to court wearing the us uniform.

Crap like this is going to drive conservative and Christian people out of the Armed Forces.
Another assault on religious freedom using military regulations as a cloak to hide the real intent. Although the anti-Obama bumper sticker is a bit confrontational, reading material by conservative authors is hardly a threat to military morale in any way. This none-too-subtle attack on a soldiers constitutional right to oppose ‘gay marriage’ using unrelated justifications to penalize him should not stand.
In clear violation of the First Amendment.
Wow. I can’t even keep up anymore. This is unreal.
And there’s that “ongoing investigation” statement again.
” Crap like this is going to drive conservative and Christian people out of the Armed Forces.”
It has.
“He was later summoned by a superior officer, who the soldier said is openly gay, and was told that unidentified individuals were offended by the tweets and some considered them to be racist.”
Nuff said..
The anti-Obama bumper stickers are probably over the line for a member of the military but reading material limitations are an overstep for the brass, IMO.
The original story was about the Master Sgt. catching flak for serving Chick-Fil-A and celebrating the DOM act.
It seems his Obama sycophant superiors have been busy digging up more 'dirt'.
Time to retire, Sarge. Tell them where to go, in a Christian way of course.
Out of the current US armed forces. This cant go on forever...
Once in the Military the UCMJ now has your rights in it. Your Rights are not the same as a civilian.
I remember basic training it is good to hold on to your politics but keep them to your self, Especially in Uniform as you Represent the Armed Forces.
> Crap like this is going to drive conservative and Christian
> people out of the Armed Forces.
This is precisely the desired effect.
Imagine a military filled with faeries, moslems and commies.
They would have no problems shooting their fellow Americans, because they really are not “us”.
When I checked in to boot camp at Great Lakes Naval Training Center in 1961, I was told that until we finished basic training we were only allowed two books; the Bible and our Bluejacket’s Manual.
I take it the Bible is out now?
Crap like this is going to drive conservative and Christian people out of the Armed Forces.
I think that’s the intended consequence...
Why would he be reading, in uniform and on duty?
I dont let my employees do that.
“If there is time to lean, there is time to clean”, and that sort of stuff.
