Lifting Ban on Gays in Military
As an active duty naval officer, I am shocked--but not surprised--that Clinton, pandering to the homosexual lobby that voted en masse for him, proposes to allow homosexuals in the U.S. military.
Close-quarters shipboard life is totally unsuited for homosexuals on heterosexual ships. This situation would not only decimate unit cohesion and “good order and discipline” but would create other problems. What about separate bathrooms or sleeping quarters?
Homosexuality is a behavioral problem, and the American military is not the place to experiment with social engineering or politically correct thinking.
The silent majority in the military are against gays in the service.
