Combat troops to get gay sensitivity training

[Hoosier]

no, i am saying, where do you drawn the line? everyone gets to serve? wether they help or hinder the mission? fat people can be patriotic too. just because someone is a midget/dwarf doesnt mean he/she doesnt deserve to serve. just because a guy is in a wheelchair doesnt mean we shouldnt accomadate his limitations at the front. we should have two combat troops pushing or pulling this person, because they want to serve and feel that they are ENTITLED TO SERVE. just because someone is a devout muslim hell bent on killing Americans doesnt mean he cant serve in our nations forces. so, where do you draw the line?

We allready draw the line on ages that may serve. we dont let extreme fat bodies serve, we arent going to let a parapeligic into a combat unit. that is predjudice and wrong, right?

whats wrong with America today? Entitlement, and everyone wanting to be treated differently. if someone gay is going to serve anyway, why any special treatment or instructions by the military to protect the person. either it works or it doesnt. if everyone were treated the same and not special, it would probably work out.

still nobody has answered... does anyone have the right to serve in the military? is it written in some book, somewhere, that everyone regardless of race, nationality, gender, sexuality, physical limitation, mental limitations all have the RIGHT to serve? anyone? or is this really about pushing gay special rights? and not actual equality?


and to more directly answer hoosier... i think we should tighten up the ranks. less pussies, less panzies, stronger, faster, better. more dedicated, less limp dick sick bay commandos. this is what our nation needs. not more of less. and that goes for straight, gay, black, white, green. joining the military shouldnt be about needing college money or job. if those come as a perk, so be it. thats great, but joining for these reasons probably weaken the force, not strengthen it.

No, there's certainly no right to serve in the forces. If someone can't perform the job they need to perform, then that won't work. I don't think the gay people who are presently serving are getting any special treatment (as long as they don't mention it, if they do their special treatment was getting washed out). They're not asking for any special treatment, as far as I can see. Getting training to the troops isn't really special treatment, I really doubt there's anything in that training that isn't common sense. I'm sure the Navy guys got similar training when women started serving ship-board. Does that qualify as special treatment?

I think we'd have a better chance of getting our forces stronger faster better if we paid them better and gave them real opportunities to be a lifer and not have to be on food stamps.

As for fat asses (like myself) or paraplegics, and women, they aren't put into combat units. That doesn't mean there's nothing they could do in the service. What percentage of people in the service even know how to shoot (well)? Lots and lots of people are sitting in the rear filling out TPS reports to make sure the trigger pullers have the bullets they need. I'd have zero problem with a paraplegic or a fat ass sitting in that air conditioned trailer in Nevada in front of a screen with a joystick blasting bad guys with the MQ-9.

Anyway, what's done is done, and at least now we won't be kicking out hundreds of people who learned to speak Arabic because they likey the butt-sex.
