I can assure you, although never having served in the military, that homosexuals in the military have always been a rotten influence, it increased under DADT, and is now even more destructive that before.
Why do I know this? Because of reading articles by people in the military, comments by people in the military, and articles by experts on the military. That and knowing the nature of homosexual behavior and their agenda.
Homosexuals - iow, mentally ill sex pervets - do NOT belong in the military. The claim that “there have always been homos in the military” is specious. When George Washington was a general, a homosexual was caught trying to perform sodomy on another soldier. He was thrown out of the military that day - “drummed out”.
And that is how it should be.
I’m a two time vet, when people say that “There have always been homos in the military.”, then they are selling something, since they used to be rooted out if discovered.
Sure enough, we get the sales pitch “I served with some dedicated, patriotic and effective homos.”
They were supposed to be invisible, but somehow this guy was aware of a number of them, and of course they were “dedicated” and “patriotic”.
“DADT was just fine with everyone that was there as near as I could tell.”, no it wasn’t, it was one of the left’s greatest victories in American history, and naturally it legalized homosexuality in the military.
I missed all the homosexual glory when I was in, I couldn’t say that I ever served with a single one.
Is that another way of saying you don't know what you are talking about? That, perhaps, you're expressing an opinion on something you have no direct knowledge of?
Every service member I have ever known has known there were homos serving with them. As long as it wasn't "in your face", none I have met cared.
Now I'm sure there are those that DID care about it. I just never met one.
But I'm certain the fag shows have turned that corner for everyone. I'm betting there's a lot who care about it now.
