This lady has no clue about what transpires in the military judicial system. I've worked in a civilian DA's office as well as served as a military prosecutor. The military prosecutes cases that a civilian DA would not dream of taking to trial. Her comments are ignorant and insulting to the commanders, military lawyers and the great majority of Marines, Sailors, Airmen and Soldiers that serve honorably every day. Her extreme comments don't do justice to the military or the public they serv

<3 SB Could not of said it better. I like to add - What if it was you?

Stand up for what is right and stop being a coward. Stop perpetuating the violence and attitude that leads to the violence. I am not the wrong gender and this was not my fault. I fought for my life and everything I knew to be right, but its my fault for being patriotic? I should have known better than to go in a mainly female MOS... whatever. Mr guns and patriots you are wrong and you give gun enthusiast and patriots like me a bad name. You are the disgrace!!!

Stop the violence and stop perpetuating the attitude. How would you feel if it was your wife, sister, daughter, or mother? Would you then blame her too or would you become angry and say this has to stop? The fact is women are allowed and that won't change. So help us stay safe. Help men and women stay safe while we defend your right to spew vile ignorance. Stop thinking we don't belong because we do. People like you need to change your way of thinking!!

That was the guy from guns and patriots magazine or so he said... this is the exact kind of discrimination I faced in the military for being a woman. Apparently we belong @ home pregnant and bare foot. Anyone who does not fit the "normal" profile is subjected to assault and rape. Rape is about power and control which the military is control oriented. This is just another condoned method of controlling the troops male or female. Here's a thought STOP BLAMING ME. Help us....don't be one of them!

If I were a male, I would be highly offended by the last guy to ask a question, as he implies that any and all males will commit rape if women are present and in close quarters...
