And it doesn’t matter one damn bit what academics and squishy liberals think. A homosexual in uniform will be a dead homosexual, even if they don’t know it yet.
A very insightful comment. I served many decades ago and it was my observation that the troops will not tolerate homosexuals in their ranks. The troops' inclinations (for the most part) may be held in check while stateside but once they enter combat the bodies will start stacking up.
I don't think that I come under the classification of a homopsychotic personality since I don't see homosexuals as a threat. It's just that their perverted sexual practices turn my stomach and I don't want to be associated with them.
I am immensely glad that I'm not a soldier today. I don't think that I could tolerate showering and bunking with queers. I would have to leave the service.
The truly egregious examples I was aware of fortunately never happened when I was in that particular unit. The worst of them was not even involving homosexuals as such, but homosexual dominance rape.
I new member of the unit had been tied to a bed and the others were waiting in line to rape him. When the duty officer, a Warrant Officer, arrived at the scene, he could not believe his eyes until he saw one of the soldiers mount the other one, then one of them had the gall to invite him to participate. He arrested everybody.
That was one hell of a court martial. The instigator got five years, the typical, of the dozen or so, soldiers in line got 2-3 years each. The soldier on the bed got five years, for not resisting enough, I guess; and even the Warrant Officer got a year for waiting, instead of acting immediately. It was a hostile court, to say the least.
Far more typical happened to a unit I had just left, for which I am eternally grateful. A new private had been assigned, and his new friends took him bar hopping. He made friends with a local man, who invited him back to his apartment, where they did some things. But then the local man wanted the soldier to do some things he didn’t want to do, so he stabbed the man with a butcher knife repeatedly until very dead.
The police found the soldier’s name and address in the dead guy’s wallet. He gave the police and MPs permission to search his wall locker, where they found the bloody murder weapon wrapped in a towel.
Interestingly, he eventually got 5 years for sodomy, and 3 years for homicide. This made sense in context to the purpose of military law being to preserve good order and discipline.
