Don't ask, don't tell thingy.
You probably have to suck a guys dick as proof.
I still don't get how they KNOW. How do you not just say, "I'm not gay"?
One guy was discharged after two fellow soldiers hacked into his email account and found correspondence between him and his partner.
ask me no questions,
i'll tell no lies
but if you get hit
with a bucket of shit
always close your eyes!
That makes no sense though... I mean, if someone hacks into your email account and finds that kind of information out, doesn't that kind of automatically exclude you from having any sort of 'tell' in that regard...

No.

64 grand to suck a guy's dick just the one time, hell yeah I would. It'd be the best damn blowjob he ever got too!
You don't get the 64k, Nate; it's already spent by the time you are mustered out.
But you go right ahead.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Oh nooo! I'm not falling for that again!

Something tells me that you'd be awful at sucking dick.
64 grand is a helluva incentive. fuck you! I'd be a great cocksucker!
no wait...
More than that. One of my advisor was a Clinical psychologist in the Navy. He has seen tons of openly gay men in the military. San Diego/ Hillcrest is full of gay military men from Coronado or Camp Pendleton. It's not a joke.
Well hell. I was going to make a joke about the disproportionate number of gay marines. But you beat me to it. There's a saying: The marines are a department of the Navy. The MENS department. And don't they just look fabulous?
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.

I'm thinking about sigging this...
a bunch of us were sitting around at work one day trying to decide what the lowest amount was we would suck a dick for. a bunch of fags were all like "I'd never do that" but the rest of us were more realistic. I think I finally got down to 30,000.
But if someone showed up with a suitcase with 30Gs in it, i'd then try to haggle them back up to 40-50 thousand. because if someone is crazy enough to pay 30 thousand for a blowjob, surely they'd be crazy enough to pay 50!
I guess go try to get a bank loan or a bunch of credit cards or something.

Are gays naturally no good at shooting a guy? Like they'll be out doing army stuff and shooting guys, and they'll see a guy they think is hot and they'll be afraid to shoot them? I'll bet that's what they're trying to avoid.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Zero percent child abuse rate with lesbian families....just saying.
Just sayin'?
That raises so many questions right there.
Who conducted the research? Who funded it? How big was the sample?* What's the margin of error?
Zero percent, like 100%, is simply not possible.
*This is your key question here.
This is why we can't have nice things.
obviously, the sample was 2.

the average number of hands a person has is less than 2. How about that!
Google is great for finding who conducted what research. DADT is like, separate but equal. What if you had three hands huh? They would separate you from the ones that have two.
I don't think we should let three-handed freaks in the military either!
Yeah, that was a stupid analogy. People with flat feet can't join the military, why would people with three hands be allowed to join?
I guess it could work though. it's one extra gun being fired.
How about this? We get the Geneva people to draw up new rules for warfare. whenever two armies are fighting, each side lines up, about 100 yards apart or so. Then they all start pissing towards the other side and start marching towards each other.
There's a constant supply of reinforcements drinking beer or whatnot so they're ready to replace anyone that's done peeing. then the closer and closer they get, they start peeing on the other army. The "winner" is the army that stands there and takes it the longest without running off all grossed out.
Yeah, that was a stupid analogy. People with flat feet can't join the military, why would people with three hands be allowed to join?
So you hate gays.

I think it's pretty clear from my posts not only in this thread but all of the website that I'm for repealing DADT, for legalizing gay marriage and for legalizing gay adoption. Just because you make shitty analogies doesn't mean that I'm homophobic. It means that you make shitty analogies.
I don't think it was shitty. I just showing the ridiculous of it.
Also it was a joke!
what if you are gay AND have flat feet! That's double jeopardy. they should let you in.
Gay people who can't take being unaccepted shouldn't join the military in the first place. How you spose to be a good killer if you're crying about shit like that? Can you imagine a squad of crying fags with hurt feelings in a battle zone? That who you want defending your freedom? Fuckin' Perez Hilton? These liberals, I swear, they want us to lose.
i can't stop picturing perez hilton in WWI trenchwarfare, with the helmet tipped a bit to the side, wearing the little doughboy uniforms with some rhinestones bedazzled on.
I can't comment on how the rest of the armed forces works. However in the Airforce DADT never stopped anything. We could still be open about who we were. We just couldn't walk up to a Colonel and be like hey! We love Dick!!!! But, who in their right mind is going to talk to a Colonel about that shit anyway. The DADT repeal has literraly changed nothing. Gays still don't have rights for their partners. Can't get married, Can't get their significant other medical benefits. They still can't talk about their sexuality in the workplace. (but, neither can the starights) It just went ahead and took a "ban" off it.
I think the main thing is that it pretty much is disqualifying them as human beings. In England the legal age of homosexual consent is 18, as opposed to 16 for male and female. There isn't even an age of consent for females. Isn't that in turn suggesting that lesbians do not exist? Taking away basic human equality and stuff.
Also it appears that there is some fair generalisation to homosexuals in this thread. That they are all your typical flamboyant type, which isn't true. Obviously some are, but thats like generalising any race. I think it's great it was repealed. A step in the right direction that they can now serve their country. If they want to do that, as well as on the side have a relationship with anyone in their same gender, why shouldn't they be able too?
About 14% of men and 11% of girls in America have homosexual activity before the age of 15. Pretty much never leads onto homosexuality in later life. Is also reported among different animals, so when people say it isn't natural...
You look like the type of guy / gal, who would like:
I still say we oughta have an All-Gay Brigade or something.
You know how they give out medals and whatnot for doing a good job? Whenever someone in there does something brave or worthy of merit, they can give out different colored little curved bars. And you stack them on top of each other on your uniform. So the highest ranking dude would be whoever has the biggest rainbow on their shoulder/chest.
Thats gay talk for sequencing.

Squads of only gay guys worked for the Greeks.
I was in the army almost 20 years ago and remember three openly gay soldiers. They didn't try to hide it, EVERYONE known, and, to my knowledge, no one really gave a shit. If one of the gay soldiers brought a lot of attention to themselves, I'm sure something would have been done. But, then again, anyone that brought a lot of attention onto themselves usually didn't get along real well.
From what Jon Stewart said the don't ask, don't tell bill was mixed in with a few other bills that were not appealing therefore when you voted for the things the voters didn't want they were also upholding that policy because there was no other choice.
Something like that... Does that happen a lot where bills big people in congress don't like wind up in sort of a mass bill with a ton of other things that are undesirable and somewhat offensive / conservative / liberal?
From what I understand, politics blows.
Jon Stewart's funny but probably not the most reliable source for how government works. This is how a bill becomes a law:
DADT was actually introduced as a part of a larger package. It was part of something that had to do with the Defense Department. I don't know if it was funding or what not, but Jon Stewart, while sarcastic, does not, as far as I'm aware, ever give misinformation since that's what he is so openly against.
But yes, I believe that happens a lot. There is always a lot of haggling and negotiating going on, and legislators will try to get something included in a larger bill that has a better chance of passing than if the issue is brought up on it's own.
you do know that "homosexual" refers to both males and females, right?

How in the world does it cost anything to fire someone, let alone 64 grand? Do they give them a 64 thousand dollar severance package or something? Because if they do, I'll join the army and then say I'm gay just to get the money.
I believe that figure includes money they already have spent on recruiting and training them and stuff...
