Don't Ask, Don't Tell is officially history!!

Are you this stupid? Could we not point out several examples of heterosexual "deviants"? How does one example of a gay man whose actions you disagree with make all of them equally bad?

So this particular weak minded homosexual is just a deviant? or is he a strong minded hero?

That's certainly up for debate (in another thread).

Homosexual servicemen and women are held to the same standards as their heterosexual counterparts. If they meet those standards, they should be able to serve. Any talk about homosexuals being weak is off base, as there are certainly both strong and weak hetero and homosexuals.

Do you really think that two gay men serving side by side wouldn't recognize each other as gay? Do you think repealing DADT will change how these individuals interact? How?

They seem to survive just fine. Just like other non-breeders in other populations.

From all the fuss you would think they are clamoring to kill themselves off in the military.

Why can't we talk about it in this one?

We aren't talking about physical strength when we speak of "weak minded."

Homosexuals are able to serve.

Make an argument, get called on it, backpedal to qualify, then claim it was the original argument all along.

It's always easy to blame others for one's inabiltiy to read.

Whose country?

Isn't the troops willingness to sacrifice their lives paying their own way?

IAll these anti-war people are clamoring for homosexuals to be openly gay in the military that they hate.

Being anti-war is one of the best ways to show your love and respect for our military. Disparaging anti-war sentiments shows a fundamental disdain for their lives and sacrifices.

That's a matter of opinion.

 

[One Brow]

homosexuals are a "population"

In what fashion, with regard to the principle of "survival of the fittest"? Because that certainly sounds like plain, old-fashioned ignorance.

Absolutely, as was the post to which I replied. To my knowledge, I am not constrained to only stating matters of fact.

I think the military should be able to make their own policies without the "public servants" in Washington butting in.

So, you would support the ability of thd Commander-in-Chief to decide this policy?
