The Pentagon on Thursday lifted its ban on transgender service members serving openly in the U.S. military effective immediately, as Defense Secretary Ash Carter cited a need for clearer guidelines and the ability to maximize the military's all-volunteer force.

How does a weakened, effeminate, mentally unstable culture fight a terrorist infiltration? Give me an example from history.

The Yugoslavs outlasted the Nazis in WW2. Were never ever really occupied. The military fights them. Lots of citizens in this country still have the steel and will do their duty. We are headed for a day of reckoning anyway. There is going to a civil war over this.

Oh, I didn’t know the Yugoslavs had transgender soldiers, boy prom queens, cowardly sailors and a completely debased culture that says up is down and down is up.
Thanks for the update.

Our entire armed services has about 0.3% of the people you describe within at the maximum. To suggest that our fighting force as a whole is like this is completely and utterly ridiculous and shows that you do not know what the hell you are talking about. You are way too cynical if you feel that way and cannot bear it there is always hemlock.

And you are way too know-it-all not to know that for 8 years our dear leader has turned every institution in this country into a sewer. That’s not cynicism; that’s reality.

You are right about that and that is why it is now time to make the correction.

...legally retarded...that's the sort of thing that was going on - trying to fit people who aren't suited into roles they're not suited for is unfair to the organization and the person.....

The numbers are far, far, far, far fewer than 0.3% of the population.
It is more accurate to say the number of criminally perverse sexual deviants known to society might be about 0.3%, and their numbers dwindle rapidly after they are allowed into the general orison population.

Except when they flood an area - say, big cities where they take up a lot of air. (I’m talking about the gay community.)
