The LGBT community in your country (you are American, I assume) is large, obviously larger than you care for, and does wield considerable political power and influence.

Why is that information any more or less wanted than when it is a gay who wants to sleep with the same sex. Who cares. Just do it and leave the rest of us out of it.

LGBT people's preferences only becomes your business because you, and your hero, have made it so. Equal rights means equal rights for everyone; regardless of their race, colour, creed, sexual preference or sexual identity. Something you and your hero obviously believe. You said earlier that no one has the right to serve their country by joining their country's armed forces; and maybe you are correct. But only a bigot could say that someone should be denied doing so purely because of their sexual preference or identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do your service." "Beck was a Navy SEAL for 20 years, serving with the elite Team 6, among others. She was deployed 13 times and served in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan, according to Business Insider."

Andaman Al Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 16 hours ago, Caps said: The BBC are also mentioning that the US Military have spent $84million for treating erectile dysfunction in contrast to the spending on Transgender medical treatment, must be all those special forces If you spent 4-6 operational tours in close quarter combat listening to the sound of artillery , seeing mates blown up, shot in the head or belly you would have erectile dysfunction as the MINIMUM of your problems. It is almost impossible to return home from that and live a normal life again. Not everyone gets erectile dysfunction or PTSD but a huge amount do.

ELVIS123456 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Many Trump haters are just using this 'anti-Liberal' move as an excuse to complain and abuse Trump. I will leave the debate with them to others who are doing very well. In my view this is a correct decision by Trump (yet another). Just like the idiotic liberal regulation passed by Obama allowing males in females toilets, the removal of the ban on Transgenders in the Military by Obama was liberal lunacy.The issue has nothing to do with discrimination, it is about not allowing certain people with certain 'issues' to serve in the Military. It is about many things from morale to costs, but it is not about the person. Being too short or too tall, having diabetes or skin disorders, flat feet etc. are just some of the many many reasons why some people are not allowed to serve. IMO what happened is that the Generals (all) approached Mattis and asked him to withdraw the Obama rule because it was causing lots of problems and was getting serious. Mattis put a temporary ban and took the issue to Trump, and one month later he decided to remove the Obama regulation. Seems to me that was the right decision - and if any of the senior Generals comes out and states that he disagrees with Trump, I will stand corrected (extremely unlikely). And therein lies the truth of the matter - Trump did what the military leaders wanted having assessed the issues, and Obama did what they didnt want and ignored their issues. Trump IS the Commander-in-Chief and unlike Obama, he is very much in support of the USA military and what they stand for and what they do. The list is below - it is not discrimination - it is rationale. http://www.military.com/join-armed-forces/disqualifiers-medical-conditions.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny then how the Pentagon knew nothing about it until Trump tweeted. You say 'all' the Generals approached Mattis, do you know how many Generals there are in the US Military? And if they 'all' approached Mattis how come the Pentagon spokesman said they knew nothing about it? Edited July 27, 2017 by Andaman Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andaman Al Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 The cost of any transgender issues to the military - what was it 2.4-8.4 mill a year is going to be NOTHING compared to the class actions that will follow. The lawyers will be rubbing their hands together already. This decision will cost hundreds of millions to the military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
