How prominent are racial jokes and slurs? If they're as prominent as homosexual jokes and slurs, it probably wouldn't be a problem.
If opposite sex attraction challenged people are openly allowed in the military, I think there should be some changes in the lodging set-up. Everyone should get their own room when able.
Additionally some other rules should be changed: right now in some bases in southwest Asia, where thousands of military people are there on temporary duty assignments, it is basically a crime for a man to be in a woman’s room or vice versa. This is to prevent potential sexual relations from occurring, however, for opposite sex attraction challenged people there are no such restrictions.
Let the enlisted people aboard ship decide........Mullin is clueless......He does not have the same hardship and E1 thru E6 has.........He has his own stateroom and shower.............Not the same for enlisted personnel..
Enlisted people make decisins all the time........They are the ones the policy affects....they should have a say in it................
Any President can overturn DADT via executive order as his role as Commander-in-Chief.
Gays should be able to join the army because the army is the safe-guard of the nation, if you are denied the right to protect your nation, then you are consequentially denied the right to stand for your country, for your family, and for your ideas.
A president can not change a law.........That is what the congress is for.......
Its real big of all you lefties who are not serving dictate to the people who are serving......No skin off your ass........you guys should all join.......you might change your mind on the issue..........

I can't keep a straight face to save my life.I would but I cannot salute with a straight face.

absolutely correct, but you better have eyes in the back of your head."You don't have to be straight to shoot straight."
Case closed. :mrgreen:
The military does have a cure for that.I would but I cannot salute with a straight face.
Your right on the mark but, you forgot who they have to serve with meaning eat, sleep, train, fight together. On screw up and the homosexual references will be brought up with those who they serve with as being the cause. The desention amongst the ranks, distrust, predijuce, hatred etc. Then the next thing you know we have FF/frag in the field.I don't know how many times I have heard the expression "Let's let the generals decide this issue". Well, the top general (actually, an admiral - same thing), has spoken. He is not only an Admiral, but is CHAIRMAN of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Will I now hear "Let's let generals other than the ones who disagree with me decide the issue"? Or will I hear "Let's let some random privates decide the issue, as long as they don't disagree with me"? Or possibly "Let's get an opinion from military cooks, as long as they don't disagree with me"?
Here is the way I see it -
1) If someone wants to defend the United States against its enemies, I don't care if he or she is gay, or straight, or whatever. Besides, his or her sexual orientation is none of my damn business, unless he or she is disrupting other troops by hitting on them. There are rules for that already in the military for straights. They will apply to gays too.
2) If gays serve in the military, I will also thank them for their service, because I love my country, and I know they do too.
To those who don't like the idea of gays serving in the military, you might as well prepare to accept it. It is going to happen sooner or later, and it is going to be a benefit to our military, rather than a liability.
