Nah, Fox News usually starts with a real story before twisting it, not just making it up outright...

[QUOTE=NO ONE;27137440]Didn't know that existed. Thought the military actually would not have some sort of way to counter act with stuff like this. Interesting![/QUOTE]
Actually it's just a class that says to respect them, regardless of their sexual orientation.

Nah, they're closer to a mix of Weekly World News and Stormfront. Daily Mail is pretty much the BBC next to WND

Their new uniforms.
Just to make sure your squadmate is gay.

Ugh, people like this make me ashamed of our military. Even though it's one dude. At least most of our military supports a repeal of DADT so it just makes this guy look like an out of touch bigot.
so now the non-bigots can die in the desert because the rednecks will stop enlisting
damnit
If you dun like et you cun GEEET OOOOUT
Good, ruin your career over it, get out.
as long as the guy beside me isnt staring at my bulge and is pulling the trigger, i dont give a fuck
Posting this again, but it's more relevant in this thread.

that is actually comical
I don't blame him
I don't have a problem with this. It seems like the best possible outcome; if he has a problem with homosexuality in the military, it seems best that he simply exits himself, rather than staying behind and being a destabilizing influence.
Hang on...What do officers do in the national guard?

I knew you were a shit poster, but I didn't realize you were this bad.
This was bound to happen, everyone knew there would be some people who would simply outright refuse to accept gays having equal rights in the military(I'm assuming there are going to also be alot of people who just use that as an excuse to end their Enlistment/Commissioning term early). However, being upset that gays now have equal rights in the military is your fault, not the U.S. Military's so I can't imagine it being grounds for an honorable discharge but they should allow people who want to resign a chance to do so. Better off purging the bigots out of the military now then ending up hearing about some fucked up "friendly-fire" incident someday.
great article! not biased at all!
so wait you can just resign over something like this?

He can't resign the Military completely until his term of service is up, but he can request to be relieved of command of his unit.

I agree with TwinkieHouse. What the fuck? I would call religious bigotry a personal trait. If a gay person was shot on the battlefield would these dickheads help him? There might be a small problem with repealing this law if there are that many bigots in the military that think gays are something that should be wiped off the face of the globe for being sinful, in that the squad might fuck off without their gay squadmate because he's gay. Great.
Oh and by the way isn't it strange how close Catholicism and its need for gays to be shunned is to facism? 'All gay people like to fuck the same sex, but I like the other sex so they should to'
Nice... we do need to get rid of these homophobic people in the military, they got two choices at the matter, force to deal with it, or get out of there. I think the repeal is a good thing as we can now have more people to sign on in to join the military, and gays can defend their love ones.
What the fuck is with this website? :gonk:

Play poker and bum each other I imagine.
:smug:
Interesting to note the homophobes rating dumb and disagree, but putting forward no counter-argument of their own.
[QUOTE=Nikota;27140215]Hang on...What do officers do in the national guard?[/QUOTE]
Well, the lead and command? Just like any Army/Navy/Airforce/Coast Guard/Marine officer would.
Wow, like gays going to suprise hump their squadmates in the middle of battle, i don't see any gay people who trying to hit on every other man they see so i don't understand "people who are so self-centered that they put living their lifestyle out in the open".
they're taking over
I would expect this from enlisted men or low NCOs, but from officers? How could such a man be put in charge?
I propose we segregate the military. "But that's unzeke of you, zeke" you may say
Well not at all! We'll put the gay soldiers in the positions of intelligence officers, pilots, commanders, stuff like that. The bigots can be the grunts! (The super-bigots can be the guys who defuse landmines)
