The "tools" are not used to remedy the drama, but to discharge gay service members for being gay. Discharge straight service members for the same drama and you might have a point, only problem is you can't kick somone out for the petty drama shit that you brought up. Double standard indeed.

Depends. Some units and their barracks are male only, mainly because the units are all males - all squad bays are male only, females are usually not with units that would be in a squad bay anyways. But for the most part there is not seperate barracks; however, there are barracks where females would be on the first floor only.

I agree, but that bridge was not leading anywhere. The sexual attraction arguement has some merit, imo, but comparing the physiology of a woman to a gay man is hogwash - not that you did that. Fight, fuck or reach for your gun - DOD was doing nothing to address these issues that you brought up. Repelling DADT is better than not doing anything at all.

No, I asked what someone's military status has to do with their opinon on the subject? Does it lend their opinion any credibility? I did not "jump" on your back. Gay dudes handle it just like us straight folks. True, but I think it has more to do with the physical make-up of men and women. Men can go from 0 to 60 much faster than women and are better suited for the physical demans of combat. Do a little research on SNS and PNS levels. But we're talking about gays here, not women in combat. If it lends any credibility, after 8 years in the Marines, 30+ countries, and a few deployments, I've fought along with gay Marines and soldiers who stood their ground with the best.

What does that have to with his opinion and observation? Santorum said "any type of sexual activity has no place in the military" ....so a troop can't bang his spouse or bf/gf? Pretty sad indeed that the soldier got booed and Santorum got claps.

+1 ooooooo[process what just happened]oooooohhhhhhhhh

I've always thought the last meal to be good, sort of like offering someone a smoke before the firing squad, or asking if they have any last words.

As a family member I would probably take the gun. However, if I were a cop I think I would need more of a reason other than the fact that he's hearing ET. Is he waiving the gun around? Pointing it at others? Finger on the trigger? Is he responding to commands? If he's not looking at me funny I wouldn't feel as threatend. If he is looking at me with that glare of intent I would probably have the guy drop the gun while I talk to him and guage his current mental state. If needed, take the guy in. But I think the real issue is with the system and the courts, not with someone temporaliy disarming someone with reasonable cause. Also, if the law did take away the gun, there's should be a streamlined process to return the gun pending a psych review, assuming he's found to not be a threat. He should not have to battle the courts/system for years to have his right reinstated when there was never an official pysch review that determined he was a threat to anyone. It is not as black and white as you make it out (mental issues = should not have guns). There is a gray area (like with your question).

It is an amazing story. Hats off to Dakota.

There is an easy way to rack up view counts on youtube. I'll let you figure it out since you said time is not a problem.

The replay on that pass was amazing! Straight corn holed it!

Bama beat Penn State

Skydive Orange is a fun jumper oriented DZ. Its a member owned club, safe, good people, twin turbine, good times all around.

I don't think that statement helps your case

Ice is back with my brand new invention

Cock holster = mouth Cum dumpster = mouth Pitbull eating mayonaisse = going down on a dirty chic Warm grill cheese sandwhich = the reason why females shouldn't be in the field Fag tag = those stupid glow belts and reflectvie vests WM, Walking Mattress = females with a bad rep

I think all militaries are ran that way, even the U.S. military during WWII. So during WWII the Marines and Navy were not schmucks because they fought the Japs who attacked us, but the Army and whoever fought in Europe were schmucks because the Nazis didn't attack the U.S? Is that right? Only since WWII, eh? It's been that way for much longer than 60 years. Was he fighting the Japs or the natzees? Schmuck or not. He signed up today and is already in country? Wow, that must be the new online boot camp. Are all people in the military schmucks? Or just those who have deployed to the middle east?

+10+987256456 I'm not just saying this because I'm a die hard Bama (see my avatar ) fan, but all in all, Bama has the best defense and a stellar offense on par with other stacked teams this year. This is going to be a great season. Billy, are you going to the Iron Bowl this year? I'm gonna try my best to get good seats and make it to the game.

That was pretty deep. Thanks for sharing.

This made me curious, so I looked it up; and (at the risk of offending the OP) I think your figures may be high: By salary: http://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=United_States_Postal_Worker_%28Carrier%29/Salary By vacation weeks: http://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=United_States_Postal_Worker_%28Carrier%29/Vacation_Weeks I'm not exactly sure and can't google it right now, but does USPS employees get COLA and other "monetary" benefits similar to most federal employees? http://postalwork.net/pay_scales.htm

Search Youtube, it's there. That's a classic Carlin rant

Best of luck wherever you go!

Saying you don't like Christian music cause it sounds like shit, or it is not your genre is one thing, but saying it is bad because it does not "praise" the lord or honors God is total BS. So what kind of music praises the lord? What kind of music does God like? Personally, I think he likes ZZ-Top and STP. Maybe even a little CCR or skynyrd
