No moron...it's all about the "freaks in foxholes" aspect that is problematic. You LGBT people have a hard time understanding that.
Just for the record, some of the biggest freaks and perverts that I have ever met have been straight, male, military members.
Can't wait for the first one that want's "Trans-Species" surgery so they can look like a cat.

I can see it now. A battalion of juiced-up cat soldiers. That would scare the hell out of me.

Just for the record, some of the biggest freaks and perverts that I have ever met have been straight, male, military members. So I think that argument against transgenders serving in the military is flawed and does more harm to the logical argument over why there should be restrictions.
The logical argument is simply the ability to perform the mission. You have to take into account what would impact a combat mission if the necessary medications were not available. I do not know the answer to this. What are the effects of a sudden removal of hormones on one's physical well being? I suspect it isn't good, which is why the decision is being made.
The message could be presented in a more logical, and rational way. I think the tweet was a bad idea, but we'll have to wait and see how it all shakes out.
LOL..I will have to concede that point. I work with some of them.... ;-p
I'm going to disagree with this. The GI bill is a great incentive to join up if you can't afford college.Private companies can spend their own money in any way they want. The government is spending OUR money, all of us who pay taxes. And I'm not saying I'm against the military providing that education benefit for serving; I'm just saying I have a problem with people that join solely for the sake of getting the free education money. I've seen it over and over, most times than I can count, folks coming in getting their degree, then getting out. There is not commitment anyone has to promise beyond their enlistment for getting a free education.
That is absolutely untrue. Can you prove that allergy sufferers are barred from
All forms of military service?

Right now the Army alone estimates between 50,000-100,000 (numbers depend on the source) un-deployable soldiers with only 10% of those expected to be fit to serve in the future. If war readiness and deployable status is truly the issue at stake, then we should get rid of them all, not just transgendered persons, but ALL OF THEM.
And I bet that most, if not all, of those soldiers are at one phase or another in being transitioning out of the military. Going through MEB and/or PEB.Right now the Army alone estimates between 50,000-100,000 (numbers depend on the source) un-deployable soldiers with only 10% of those expected to be fit to serve in the future.
