“And if you look at the medical disqualifying guidelines of the military that they use, we are medically reliant, and therefore disqualifies us,” he continued.“We are no better than diabetics. We are no better than asthmatics. We should be disqualified at enlistment because we are medically reliant,” stated Dixon.
He/She/They get(s) it.
An independent thinker where you don’t expect to find one.
I pray that this man gets his mind right about his sickness and repents of mutilating his body. In Jesus name. Lord heal this man
I like this guy. He’s nailed it. And he has his priorities right, and sees the agenda for what it is.
There are many gays and transgenders who,also do not see why the two groups are shoved into one agenda as they don’t have much in common.
Amen.
Nobody would think that such a person is fit for military service (or for much of anything else) because he would be an obvious risk and a liability. I fail to see any difference between the level of delusion between the guy who thinks that his arm doesn't belong to him and the guy who thinks that he's a girl in a man's body.
Actually I know a woman who thinks she is a boy and she is incredibly conservative and so are her strange millennial peers. They actually rip SJW s from end to end with their sardonic wit.
No.
They are mentally ill.
Instead of being helped their illness is being aided for the higher profit.
Guess who gets to pay for it.
That medical reliance to maintain their condition is exactly what I used to explain it to my college age daughter, who was worried about the “thousands” who were going to be out of work. I said, “What will a woman do when her meds run out, if she is in the wilds of Afghanistan? In a couple weeks, her muscle mass declines, her voice rises, her breasts start growing. All of a sudden, she is not the man her fellow soldiers were counting on, at all.”
The light bulb went on— “Oh, they basically take steroids?”
I think it’s fun to explain the real world to young people.
I agree. The medical concerns just add multiple problems for the military to deal with when they’re actually supposed to be winning wars.
I would add the entire lactating/pregnant female soldiers to the list.
Lactation station at the bunker on top of an Afghani mountain?
Let’s see, extra equipment, extra flights, extra packages sent home. It’s craziness.
But, they say, you can just declare her “non-deployable”.
Right. We need squads as less than full strength and we need some other soul to be deployed again because this one just can’t make it.
Not so much for profit as for political virtue-signaling and vote-getting. The actual number of transsexuals is probably miniscule - a fraction of one percent, so they're not a big voting block. However, because the media has turned their agenda into the trendy Social Justice cause of the month, liberals now use transgender bathrooms as a litmus test in deciding who to vote for.
A thinker where you don’t expect to find one...................
I think what he/she really means is, “We’re medically dependent”.
Or is it reliant as in “We rely on medications to stabilize the effects of our addadicktomy/choppadickoffamee”?
Anyway, if a service member requires refrigerated meds (including some diabetics), then he or she is nondeployable, never mind the wackadoodleness that goes with one’s self-imposed condition of being a heeshee.
Body dysmorphic disorder. And you are right. People go to South America and pay $20,000 to have their arm or leg removed and then come back here and you go on disability. Disability isn’t the reason they do it but it is what they end up on
Obama wanted to be the 21st Century Martin Luther King. The problem is, most professional victim groups had already been spoken for by some conman hero long ago - blacks, feminists, Chicanos, gays, etc all have their rackets going already. So Obama looked around and realized that there was one group that didn't yet have a political champion, and he found trannies. That was the best he could do to put himself into the pages of history books as a transformative champion of the "oppressed."
This person gets it. The army needs people who aren’t medically dependent, requiring ongoing care, like hormones, counseling, and ultimately surgery.
What’s not mentioned is that transgender transition isn’t an accident that comes out of the blue, like a war injury, or a disease contracted while in the service. It’s a known defect for the transgenders that have been incentivized to enlist for the purpose of completing their change on Uncle Sam’s dime. In the insurance business, it would be called a “known loss”, or a hidden defect.
If the military asked, “Are you considering a gender transition while in the service”, enlistees would have to lie in order to enter, or not be disqualified, under any sane (and now Trump’s) policy.
There are some serious wackadoodles in the Eugene and Portland areas, this guy just painted a big target on his own back. Considering how small the community of trannys must be you would think word will get around pretty fast on this guys betrayal of the pink wall they all hide behind.
