Transgenders not welcome

This no doubt will be the next challenge to face the powers to be that control our nations military. I guess he/she should have read the fine print before crossing over to the other side. Having allowed openly homosexual individuals to stay in the military I can't see how they could possibly deny a transgender person their right to serve. The govt. has opened up a huge can of worms here.

Moral relativity is a slippery hole. Getting harder to climb out of after every Dem POTUS.

Do NOT look at the article. Dude or chick, it's not pleasant. He/she should go to serve in the Salvation Army.

Is the Salvation Army still in existence? They were often visible at Christmas time, but I've not seen them for many years.

Is that a cross between "served" and "severed"?

Brilliant play on words, Big Teddy.

In what way does someone changing gender cause our moral values to decline?

A person cannot change their gender even with reassignment surgery; they can only change the outward appearance.

I know how all of you feel about COL Schoer, but is it relevant to this discussion? She wasn't attempting to join the Army. He waited until after his service was complete to become a she.

Depends on "our" means.

Libs embrace perversion, and don't consider a sexual deviant to be immoral, so their morals wouldn't decline any farther than they already have.

People who still understand the difference between right and wrong consider acceptance of this type of bullshit to be immoral because it naturally goes against that understanding.

It's hard for libs to understand, as they lack a conscience in many areas.
