anything dealing with something gay, the op will start a thread on. I get the feeling gay "issues" are his number one priority.
Its not that, everyone has his/her favorite issues. It is the pattern of starting threads and then the name calling the OP onesidely participates as a result with anyone posting anything but cheerleading for said pro-gay activist thread.
Big deal, so have I.
Doesn't mean anything, really.
Strangely, at the time, it did for me. I thought I was doing something important. I was connecting with my heritage. That's the way it is for most southerners.
We're involved in 3 wars, the cost of oil and gas is rising, there's a crisis in the Middle East, the poverty rate is increasing, the federal debt and deficit is rising at unsustainable levels, we have an incompetent president, the value of the US dollar is falling, stock markets are overinflated, we're in severe danger of this 3 year long recession worsening, the housing market is experiencing a double dip, millions of families are struggling financially and you're worried about the military learning to "accept" gays?
It's called social engineering. And it's probably pretty important to the op. I suppose if I were gay I'd prioitize on it as well. As it is I have my own concerns, like the proper functioning of the us military. In a world filled with people who like to target and kill us civilians a functioning military is probably important, for some of us.

I'm not gay and I think that it's in the best interest of a government, and a nation, to accept all citizens equally.
I believe that it hurts everyone when discrimination is practiced.
I believe in inclusion rather than exclusion.
Yeah, but this is the Holy Grail of liberal social engineering. Since this effort depends on suppressing dissenting views, only the military can provide the correct environment for forcing homosexuality on people who might otherwise express disapproval. For the left, the military is the next best thing to a true totalitarian police state complete with thought crime laws.
Look for education to be next. My state arkansas, a democratic party property for all intents and purposes, has now signed on to adopt national standards. I fully expect to see similar social engineering curricula to crop up there at some point in the future. All hail our glorious leaders.

Identity politics has little to do with inclusion/exclusion and more to do with political patronage. The homosexual lobby just got rewarded for it's political patronage. The american military has just become a part of the political spoils system.

There is quite a bit of accuracy to this, no matter if you agree or disagree with homosexuality. After all, if you're going to force a group into acceptance of an idea, the military would be ideal because as I stated before, as a Marine, you follow orders or face UCMJ.
Instead of gay acceptance training they should be doing combat and safety training.....you know, things that help you fight and defend.
Again, it's a matter of political patronage. The gay lobby just got paid off for years of monies and votes. I just can't wait to see what they'll offer the mexicans next, maybe mexican mre's. That might get the democratic party members a few percentage points boost in the polls.

I seem to remember just how big the military was on following orders as a simple seaman.
'I hate to point this out but you do realize those nations in blue generally speaking have barely functioning militaries don't you. '
You do know that "Gays" have been serving in the Military forever, right?
The Israel Defense Forces are barely functioning?
Their stats show open sexuality has had NO effect.
I was well aware of that when I was there. In regards to israel. It is a different culture than mine. I care little what they perceive to be right or wrong. It doesn't affect me.
In regards to their military, yes they've been very successful at defending their people. My hat's off to them. However, this wouldn't have happened without the us.
As for the european militaries, they barely exist. Just take a long hard look at what they have, and what they do with it. That would be nothing and nothing. The europeans managed to outsource their defence to the us decades ago.
