I am all for making our fighting force as effective as possible. As such, if you are the best of the best and are gay or female, good for you. But I've heard that having OPENLY gay guys causes a morale problem. I'm sure there have always been gays, but maybe just keep it part of YOUR life. Same with the girls. I've heard a lot of them can't pass the basic tests or that they've softened the training to help get them through. Girls are fine so long as they can pass muster as part of the best, and DO NOT create too much of a distraction. Pretty hard to imagine girls out there fighting with the guys and there not being a little hanky panky. If you are in the Service, I want you there because you are damn good, not out of some sense of political correctness.
Is it the gay people who are causing moral problems, or is it the straight people causing the moral problems? I'd say it's the latter.
Since the vast majority of soldiers are straight, then are you suggesting we get rid of all of them and enlist only gays? BTW, it is a morale problem, nor a moral problem.
What? I didn't say that at all.
So no, that isn't what I'm suggesting.
