Transgender SEAL to Trump: Tell Me to My Face I'm Not Worthy
Military.Com ^ | 27 Jul 2017 | Paul Szoldra

A retired Navy SEAL Team 6 hero who is transgender had a message for President Donald Trump after he announced the US military would bar transgender people from serving. "Let's meet face to face and you tell me I'm not worthy," Kristin Beck, a 20-year veteran of the Navy SEALs, told Business Insider on Wednesday. "Transgender doesn't matter. Do your service." Beck said Trump's abrupt change in policy could negatively affect many currently or wanting to serve in the military. The RAND Corporation estimated in 2016 that there were between 1,320 and 6,630 transgender people serving. Many of them just want to serve their country like everyone else, Beck said. "Being transgender doesn't affect anyone else," Beck said of the transgender ban. "We are liberty's light. If you can't defend that for everyone that's an American citizen, that's not right."

Honor, like anything that can be won,
can also be lost.

Get back to me when a woman can pass the SEAL team protocols. I suppose if we had a man who was a cross dresser, with his berries intact it could be done. I am talking about the old fashioned, real life woman with a Uterus, ovaries and not taking testosterone or shooting steroids.

The Secret Service should not allow a mentally ill person to get in President Trump’s face.

If you speak like this of you Commander in Chief you certainly are not worthy of our wonderful military

If he is collecting retirement pay, I think that could be in jeopardy. I don't know for sure, but I think it's not OK for retired GIs to insult the CIC, and do it publicly.

When he served, he served with honor. Sadly, gender dysphoria has taken him over.

I am sure, at heart, he is a true patriot. However, this disorder is just that, a disorder.

Unworthy and unfit are two different things.

Excellent point.

A better example is Private Bradley Manning.

Yes, a tranny convicted of six counts of espionage. Why wouldn't the DoD want more of them?

Maybe it’s that time of the month?
Or maybe he just thinks it’s that time of the month.
Or maybe he should pretend it’s that time of the month.
Or maybe his doctor told him it was that time of the month. Or maybe.............

Your post #43; as I was reading the excerpt about the transgenders losing their grip and blowing up at people, I kept thinking about weaponizing a somolian, handing them a badge, and having them patrol the streets of Minneapolis. Two different mental situations, but could end up with the same result.

“He wasn’t...transgender when he was in the Navy...”

Precisely. And he can’t maintain his transgender illusion without continuous, costly medical intervention. Just as I was not diabetic while I was in the Army and Army National Guard. Now I am. I could not serve (even if I was young enough) without continuous medical support. So, I am no longer eligible to serve.

He never said that transgender were not worthy. He said they cost too much and are detrimental to the effectiveness of the troops.

This is an implied contingent threat of physical harm to the President and should be investigated as such.

And in making that implied threat he has proved that people with gender dysphoria are mentally unfit to serve in the military.
