Space Force general decries 'anti-LGBTQ+' laws at Pentagon Pride event, claims they affect hiring decisions
Fox News ^ | 6/16/23 | Brian Gillespie

Posted on 06/16/2023 8:44:58 AM PDT by JonPreston

Lt Gen DeAnna Burt claimed such laws 'could be dangerous' for members of the military

Lt. Gen. DeAnna Burt, deputy chief of space operations, also claimed that such laws affect her hiring and promotion decisions, sometimes leading her to choose a "less qualified" candidate because of a preferred candidate's "personal circumstances."

"Transformational cultural change requires leadership from the top, and we do not have time to wait," Burt told those attending the event. "Since January of this year, more than 400 anti-LGBTQ+ laws have been introduced at the state level. That number is rising and demonstrates a trend that could be dangerous for service members, their families, and the readiness of the force as a whole."

She kept using the word readiness, while ranting that we absolutely need a horde of othersexuals in the space force ASAP.

So now military officers are free to criticize laws at the state level.
Good to know.

And when they finally get down to the township level, I hope General Burt will look into putting a traffic light at the intersection near my house. We really need one there.

"...more than 400 anti-LGBTQ+ laws have been introduced at the state level. That number is rising and demonstrates a trend that could be dangerous for service members, their families, and the readiness of the force as a whole."

That is pathetic and infuriating. These laws protect NORMAL people and their families from the outright depredations of the weirdos, freaks and kooks. They protect us from the cultural revolution that the leftists are fomenting.

That the Pentagon supports the weirdos, freaks, kooks and perverts and believes that making them a catered-to protected class increases our fighting effectiveness and readiness is insane and defies common sense. That the leaders in the Pentagon espouse this nonsense is really worrying.

There is NO EVIDENCE whatsoever that catering to perverts improves "the readiness of the force as a whole." NONE at all. They just spout that nonsense and expect us to swallow that swill. It's the very same swill recipe "diversity is our strength."

If a Guardian or Space Force officer thinks that their minor child should get irreversible sex-change medical treatment before they come of age, they are not fit to serve.

The Space Force has the most technically challenging mission of our armed services--they don't need nincompoops.

So these laws stop her from hiring her preferred candidates? Her preferred candidates are mentally ill?

China’s Army Is Comin’ To Town

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why (why)
China’s Army is coming to town

Gather round

They’re making a list
An’ checkin’ it twice
They’re gonna find out who’s naughty and nice
China’s Army is comin’ to town

They sees you when you’re sleeping
They know when you’re awake
They know if you’ve been bad or good
So be good for goodness’ sake

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why
China’s Army is comin’ to town!

………

And when I get excited
My little China girl says
“Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth”

The Nineteenth Amendment and women in positions of authority within the military are egregious errors that ultimately will bite our country on the butt in a severe way.
