He covered my ass a couple times at Ft. Polk.

THE GAY AGENDA is just a fabrication of the far-right and that THE SCARY GAYS are just regular folks
Would've preferred this to come from the legislature, but oh well.

nah, regular gays are just regular folks...scary gays are still scary (ever seen a gay pride parade? fat dudes in assless pants...doesn't get much scarier than that. :lol:

This did just bring up an interesting sideline to the whole DADT debate. Assuming that it is removed, and gays are allowed to openly serve, they would, of course, be subject to the UCMJ just like any other member of the armed service. It bring up all sorts of interesting situations. They could date openly, but as gay sex is prohibited in the UCMJ, they would be unable to legally have sex. Course..it is illegal in many states too. So it seems that the definition of sodomy in the UCMJ would need to be changed if gays are allowed to openly serve. To allow them to openly serve, but tell them they cannot have sex seems a bit harsh. Can imagine the internal debate..Okay..I can serve my country, or I can have sex.....decisions decisions..
Congress has no authority over military regulations, either.
But most dont seem to get that those "scary" gays are not going to enlist. Are you kidding me? Combat boots dont come with high heels, and it is IMPOSSIBLE to get a pair of BDUs in pink.
← Read and learn.You state this as if I have a history of not being able to back up what I write or make a good argument. Are you new too?
And I was right. "Because I said so" isn't proof.Women have served in the Army since the 18th century. Over time they were being promoted to officer ranks and charged with entire units at a time when civilian bosses were still seeking to pinch them n the ass for their pretty dresses. It wasn't until well into the late Cold War era the first females saw "rank" in the corporate world.
Scary strights enlist. Why not scary gays?
Don't ask don't tell was a defense directive issued by the president. It had nothing to do with the military. Please dont act as though only the military decides wht the military can and cant do. Good god..You'll get Sarge going again.
I believe in military oversight by civilians as misguided and wrong they usually are. Just not the twerps I was engaged in earlier.
And it's MSgt

Carry on.
:lol:I gave you a fact and some common knowledge background. Use it to gain knowledge or swim in your ignorance.
:lol:
I'm a little worn out from swimming in your ignorance all afternoon.
I've said my piece on this thread. I'll leave you to hoist yourself up by your own petard yet again. Enjoy!
How dare this activist judge does what 75% of the country wants! How dare she stand up for free speech! This is an atrocity and will have severe repercussions! It will be massive sodomy throughout the ranks!
Really? 75% of the country wants that? When most every state that has gay marriage put to a ballot has elected to ban gay marriage?
Oh the things we do to appease 2% of the country.

Several reasons, actually. The reason you pointed out, along with unit cohesion, fraternization, sexual harassment. Yes, your addition to my comment is correct.
No, it's not. However, it is a part of DoD regulations, which no court in the land has jurisdiction over.
