Oh yeah because you're a "progressive."

In your mind my aforementioned statement is "racist."

Squirrel! *Snap* *Snap* HEY, the topic of this thread is about gay rights, you know the thing we're arguing about that you say they shouldn't be allowed to do.

The fact that you bring up some unrelated whine about the UNCF is a little bit alarming. You seem angry, maybe you should look into that.

I never claimed or even asserted that you couldn't debate the issue - what I CLEARLY said/implied is that the government has ZERO right forcing others to do as they see fit...

That isn't an opinion on my behalf - it's a Goddamn fact - a fact which in this situation violates the First Amendment...

100% false its not a fact no matter how many times you state this lie, why? because that is NOT what is happening here. Thats why nobody buys it. Please tell us some more fantasy though.

Once again, it's not my opinion but the nature of military command and specifically the DOD which is a political machine. Their reporting is always going to be political in nature. Even IF the figures contained in a report are dead on accurate, the conclusions are going to be politically biased to the current political environment.

I understand that their point of view is more political and much more susceptible to the orientation of an administration's orientation.

But what I am asking is (with what we currently know through empirical research): did the DOD and RAND come to the wrong conclusion about the impact assessment?

The answer to your question is that the conclusions they came to are wholly political. Whether they are wrong is hard to judge since that is a requirement of DOD reporting (public reports). Do I believe that allowing openly gay folks to serve negatively affects unit cohesion, the answer is yes. Do I believe gay folks should be allowed to serve, also yes.

I know this sets me up for, well if one negatively affects unit cohesion then why not allow the other even if it too negatively affects unit cohesion. I have Chirchill's answer to that, it's a matter of necessity and degree.

By George, I think you've got it.

Under the UCMJ, when your serving in the U.S. military, you no longer have any Constitutional Rights. Your ass belongs to the branch of service your serving in and the laws you live by are the Uniform Military Code of Justice.

Why do you suppose that's the way it's suppose to be ? Could it be from thousands of years of lessons learned from armies and navies fighting wars ? I believe so.

So why are outside agitators trying to use the military for social engineering experimentation and are ignoring lessons learned and are in the process of changing the culture, customs, traditions and even the regulations and the UCMJ ?

Right out of Joseph Stalins playbook when Barack Obama said he plans to change the face of the American military. "To redefine the purpose and character of the military." It was what Stalin did when he politicized the Soviet military during the 1920's/30's..

For the first time in America's history, the uniform military is being politicized, it even has political officers today just as the Soviet army had, they are known as diversity officers today.

Until we have solid data showing problems with the policy, we may as well just argue ideology, which is fine. We argue that it does good while it allows more people to openly serve their country. Your side argues one of upheaval to cohesion.

"Ever" is a long time.

But you may have missed this in my previous post: " On the other hand they may organize a BBQ at an individual home - which may be on base or off.

The issue isn't about whether the club "ever" holds an event at a volunteers home, the issue is about commands providing official recognition and command sponsorship to a Spouse Club which excludes spouses.

ernst barkmann said:

Click to expand...

The "club" does not mandate that Family "A" or "B" MUST hold an even in a home. Nope not done. Someone, in such a situation, may volunteer to hold such an even. If another person doesn't want a homosexual to attend and event in their home, or a black, or a Jew - they just don't volunteer their home. If they don't want to participate in command spoored events at on-base location or at other homes - no one makes them attend, they are free no to show up.

There is no "association in question", if you don't want to associate - don't go. Attendance is not mandatory, it's voluntary. If you don't want to join the club don't, people are free to start their own private clubs and invite whomever they wish, they just can't be command sponsored.

I spent 20-years, 66 days, and about 16 hours on active duty before transferring to the Fleet Reserve, as someone that did join the military - You are not in a status where "you have no rights anymore".

Your rights may be curtailed, for example, free speech that is prejudicial to good order and discipline may be restricted. You are free to go to a Klan rally if you want in civilian clothes, you can attend political fund raisers and events for candidates in civilian clothes. You can even speak at such events. You may not though wear your uniform at such events or project yourself as a member of the military or to be acting under military authority. Evey base I was ever stationed at, I could own firearms. When I lived in base housing I had to register them with security, when I lived in the barracks they were stored in the armory. If I had been arrested for a crime (which of course I wasn't) I still had a right to counsel, the right of non-incrimination, the right to a speedy trial, the right to a day in court, the right to question my accuser, and the right to challenge a conviction on appeal. Military courts are different then civilian courts, that does not mean that rights do not exist.

Curtailed or function differently does not mean that you have no rights.
