The problem is HOMOSEXUAL rape. Didn’t exist before Obamagabe sodomized the US military. The media never reports HOMOSEXUAL rape because they love sodomites and anything to do with sodomites.

Can I plead I like it?

[Buckeye McFrog]

We were a much better country when that had to do with a Betty Grable pinup.

There seems to be something liberating about ignorance and inexperience. You are free to believe whatever you want to, unencumbered by hard facts and, if you have political power, to impose your headstrong ignorance on those with first-hand knowledge.

Kinda describes the entire federal government....

[no-to-illegals]

To make clear ...

[jazusamo]

Correct, that is and will continue to be a growing problem.

Next? It describes an undressed dress? See throught?

What the heck? Cannot like a three letter word?

***what do you suppose is going to happen when men and women are in the same tents or trenches at night on battlefields thousands of miles away?****

They put women in the trenches with men under extreme stress of battlefield conditions, then tell the men, “Do not touch!”

It is like placing an ice cream cone in front of a child and saying, “Do not touch!”

[no-to-illegals]

We Bad? and nationwide!

[no-to-illegals]

It is a shine on the boots? Nationwide!

” A more insidious consequence of having ignorant civilians micro-managing the military is that the caliber of a nation’s military leaders can be affected when generals have to pass through filters for political correctness to reach the top.

That means losing people whose only abilities are in winning wars with minimum casualties, or preventing wars by knowing the right deployment of the right forces. Top military talent is no more common than any other kind of top talent — and the stakes are too high to filter out that talent with requirements that generals be able to pretend to do the impossible on sexual issues.”

Obama’s plan to destroy the military.

[Vigilanteman]

Didn’t exist before Obamagabe sodomized the US military.

It existed. Talk to a former submariner. But it was rare precisely because it could buy the sodomite a rapid Court martial and a DD. Or an informal "mattress party".

[no-to-illegals]

He cannot destroy what is civilian ...

[stephenjohnbanker]

Correct.

[no-to-illegals]

yea ... Set my soul on Fire or at least pour some water on me! Black Water ... purify my soul!

Slam dunk.

[jazusamo]

No doubt in my mind you’re right.
