YEE HAW!

There is simply no reason for gay men and lesbians to serve a right-wing country like the US that hates us, condemns us and denies us equal rights.

I’ve read that as many as 40,000 healthy young gay men and lesbians would sign up for military service if DADT were repealed. Keeping the ban in place saves their lives and prevents them from becoming accomplices to this nation’s lies and war crimes.

“One linguist was serving in Iraq with a Marine combat unit when he was discharged. A military source reported that he was known to be gay but was allowed to serve and was only formally investigated after an Inspector General audit obtained language from the computer chat rooms that apparently suggested he might be gay. Enlisted with the Navy, he was serving with the Marines in the 'individual augmentation' program, which allows the military to pull talent from whatever branch they need to, in order to fill shortfalls such as that of the highly trained Arabic linguists. Under "don't ask, don't tell," the military has fired at least fifty-eight Arabic linguists.”

Would you want to work for the Dept of Defense? Fuck them.

You order the military to do something, and only permit questions as to HOW they will implement it.

Understand, soldier?

Sir, yes sir!

and i basically have no religious beliefs, other than "the last thing this country needs is a stronger military".

this country needs a MUCH weaker military. about 1/3 to 1/2 as large.

and Reichert took 20 years to catch a retarded killer, so don't expect him to do much more than tie his own shoes in the morning.
