I apologize. I respect the US military and realize how politicians have misused it since Vietnam. But the fantasist in me can't resist the thought of a special gay Delta Force unit, for desert operations, operating behind enemy lines, seeking out some of those a*holes who beheaded hostages and caturing them and then BF'ing them into the middle of next week and filming it and then broadcasting it on a special US Army TV station, All Queera.
The US needs to get the lead out and do something about those boys and a gay unit would be the perfect weapon.
Maybe I'm ahead of the curve on this one.

Unconventional thinking is needed these days, and you sir are on the right track.

I don't think the troops need a lot of grab assing going on.
When I was in the service we did not have to worry about gays bugging us.
Its not good.
We need people that will kill the enemy, not check out their butts.
Does that mean as a man you have animalistic uncontrollable thoughts and actions when around women? That you cannot be trusted around any women because you may sexually assault or harass them in some way?
You make no sense. Just because someone is gay does not mean they will be attracted to you and checking out your arse.
I do not get the idea some have that people who are gay are a bunch of animalistic horny people who cant control thoughts, urges and actions. As if straight people are perfect and in absolute control of themselves at all times.

No difference in between gay and straight blood. Get your facts straight.
And just cuz someone supports the gays with their want of equal rights, does not mean we are gay.
Notice how DODT was passed with 70%?

Gays may not all be "animalistic horny people" - but they are indeed perverted people.

It's rapidly apparent that the scope of a front line combat soldier is beyond the basic grasp of several on this thread who have taken offense at anything beyond what their personal experience and wishes encompass.
When I think of front line combat troops, the Air Force doesn't exactly jump out at me, with one exception - Combat Controllers. Who are attached to Army combat units.
You go right ahead and think what you wish. It doesn't matter what your opinion is. The only thing that matters is those guys in combat mode day in and day out. They only have each other to rely on, they must completely trust each other, and individuals perceived as "different" will NOT be accepted, and will be gotten rid of - one way or another.
We've all seen incidents in civilian life of guys "rolling queers" and even murdering them.
Just wait until you put rifles and grenades in the hands of everyone, with testosterone flowing, stress that will linger in diminishing quantities for decades, and a desire to stay alive at any cost.
You don't think of what should be, or what could be. Your only thought is of surviving your individual fights before being forced into another.
Like I said, a known gay being shot and bleeding all over everything is a threat - real or perceived.
NOT something the other team members wish to be exposed to - even potentially.
In combat, all threats are removed as a matter of habit.
Political correctness be damned.
If our troops are to be thought of in the same ilk as some redneck who 'rolls queers', we have a far larger problem at hand than just gays in the military.
Course, anyone who is even half-educated wouldnt think of a gay persons blood as any more of a threat than a straight person, but hey, we do recruit the bottom 10% of our graduating classes, so you may just be right.

I believe the Archer has his facts STRAIGHT. AIDS and HIV is much more prevalent in gay men than normal men.

I get it. You want to make this political because you are all pro-USA good Christian, right? That is why my expressing my opinion on an internet forum translates to you as me pushing an agenda for which I should be removed from this wonderfully free country. Get over yourself. Do not interject things that do not belong. If people need to be killed, then fine. Sometimes that happens. But do not stand over a dead body and then tell me your bible tells you being gay is a sin.
GET THE DIFFERENCE?

I think the point of the post went totally over your head.
Never mind, at ease, as you were...sir, cap'n sir!

Hey genius, orders are not followed more than one might think.
Your intellectual shortcoming is in thinking that a soldier unthinkingly obeys orders just because they're orders. How completely ignorant - and that's what I've been saying all along.
Some here on this thread confuse their personal preferences with reality.
And for your information, genius, I don't much give a tinker's damn about who you want defending you or not as - since you aren't doing it - you'll take what you're given and like it.
Or not. But you will accept it.
See how that works?
