"If a Marine spots two men in his battalion kissing off-duty at a shopping mall, he should react as if he were seeing a man and woman. "

But...... it's not the same

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

If a man kisses a women the it's natural but if a man kisses another man, can you really just tell people to treat this behavior the same way as the other they aren't the same and never will be..

now if a women kisses another women thats just fine by me, I would be perfectly fine with accepting that behavior (just call me Mr. Open minded), and invite my friends to watch with me

I like how all of the DADT briefings all start with "we are not trying to change your opinions or beliefs..."
"...ok, everyone has to support this because everyone has the right to be accepted as equals"

...ha, and the briefing usually ends with "NO, you cant use your belief system as a reason not to support the repeal of DADT"

Political semantics-nothing more nothing less. I wish people would stop trying to tell me they aren't trying to change my mind and just tell me the truth:

BOSS: "Here is your feces sandwhich, now consume it and STFU."
ME: "Thank you sir, may I have another"

Life in the military really can be just that easy if you just give clear concise instructions and dont try to bullshit your soldiers. Soldiers know what bullshit looks like. They know it smells and they know it tastes like shit. Soldiers also have a strange way of doing marvelous things when you are straight with them. Our leaders in DC haven't been "straight" (pun intended) with us in a very long time.

I am going to do whatever the boss tells me to do and I am going to get good results doing it regardless of how unpopular the program may be. I just wish everyone would stop pissing on my back and then trying to convince me that it is just a warm spring shower.

You should consider yourself lucky: there's people who pay for those warm spring showers you keep on getting for free...

Geeeeze, how about focusing on important stuff instead of these silly matters?
These "month of" nonsense do not mean or change anything, they're only a way of pampering idiots with too much time on their hands...

Just spent four hours attending the Army sexual harassment and sexual assault prevention class and on-line training. Take away lesson: Don't let your buddies get drunk and have sex. Wow.

Multiply that times roughly 600,000 Army soldiers and civilians, meaning that we spent 2.4 million man hours on this "training" and consider the fact that the dumbasses who are violators will not learn anything from it.

I also work in a job with zero females present. I guess the mandatory acceptance of gays could make that less relevant, but at this point, I am underwhelmed with our leadership's decisions on how to spend our training time.

I'm afraid America is starting to lose it's way......... Since "O" has been in office he has manage in less than 4 years to screw up this Country so bad it is going to take a lot of work to get us back on track again............ Hopefully he won't return for another 4 years,however if he does I fear he'll have our Country so messed up no one will be able to put us together as we once were.........It just boggles my mind how he continues to have support from people who believe what he's been doing is good for this country.......
