Take enough surveys and you can generally find one that supports your agenda. Anyone wanna’ bet whether Bonnie Moradi and Laura Miller are gay or straight?

If they(gays) are creating such controversy, simply stop taking them as enlisted personnel or in the R.O.T.C., or at the military academies. The military does not operate under the same rules as a civilian corporation. Estimates of practicing gays in the general population are in the 4% range. Their absence will have less than zero impact on the U.S. military and depending on which survey you choose to believe, their absence may have a positive effect on morale, all the way from the unit, platoon, brigade, battalion, right to the top and the Joint Chiefs. Why let political correctness have any impact on military ops, real or imagined? Eliminate the question…

As an aside, The Roman Catholic Church is drumming homosexuals out of seminaries, and not accepting gay applicants, in order to end the widespread homosexual pedophile problems in the Church which has drained finances and resources, and forced entire dioceses into bankruptcy. The Church did not want to believe homosexuals in their priestly ranks was a problem either, just like the politically correct libs don’t care to admit it’s a genuine military problem.

there is no prob in the mil concerning gays or heteros …….. for the vast majority of any group. the prob is coming from that irritating lone fly that just keeps things muddied and the slop jar politician only interested in scoring points. they both need swatting.

then there are the ones that can’t cut it and use their whatever as the excuse.

Oh, James! Your experiences are about civilian life, where there is no “don’t ask, don’t tell” rule, right?

I understand exactly what you mean. I suppose most people have had a work experience with someone who expects “whatever” because of “whatever.” Comes up a lot with power elite white guys.

The problem with DADT rule is the rule itself. I’d like to find someone who can argue FOR the rule just to hear the reasoning.

I guess no such person exists in “real life.”

Nice conversing with you.

Thank you for the comments, I have worked with many of all persuasions, and in my experiences, each of the individuals that experienced problems, had been the ones to make an issue of their preferences. Those that did not say anything, but rather just went about their business, did not have the issues. Some even went so far as to tell the others to remain quiet about their preferences. Afew did, others almost demanded that the rest of us give them a wide field because they were special or deserved special rights.

I am not passing judgement here, but merely stating what has happened in my career. The average person seems not to really care what happens in your bedroom, but rather what is happening on the job, whatever it may be.

Caring is good. Speaking for others…who can speak for themselves…
Sorry to hear about Carrie, I’ll tip one to her memory.

Just a person who cares about people. The reason I bring up these questions is to find out the experiences of others so I can better understand the situation.

BTW, Carrie Nation is dead.

I’m sorry, James. I must have worded that poorly. The idea that gays and lesbians are announcing their preferences and getting the boot is what I meant is wrong. It’s incorrect. It’s not true.

These people are performing their job tasks, not expecting anyone else to do their jobs, keeping their sexual preferences to themselves, living their lives however they wish. Sexual preference is, obviously, not something that can be left “at home.” They are discharged because someone else was the “teller.”

Judging what you experience in your own life is totally out of my realm, not to mention none of my business.

All perform admirably, no problems. Five ‘man’ team becomes two, any way, shape or form, you’re usually dead. Keep dreamin’ winnie. Hope this was a training exercise.
