Please explain, how is allowing open gays to murder and kill in the service of this stinking empire a civil rights victory????

[cornbreadjtm]

@tertommy I'm not for the war sir but I think that as americans you should have respect for the military maybe not for this bullshit war but in knowing that in a seconds notice they did have to fight for your freedoms they would. i let this comment in to tell you that.

[killingkarma]

ha ha....i laugh. all this is unnecessary. besides, you make everyone's life a hell of a lot more difficult cause we have to take some stupid sensitivity class so we don't upset you.

[cornbreadjtm]

@killingkarma No one asked for a sensitivity class we just want to be able to serve I would actually take the sensitivity classes as an insult if i were you they don't think people are professional enough to handle it and i know for a fact that people can there were people who knew i was gay and if they gave me a hard time about something i gave them a hard time about something else i can take a joke its the military you have to be able to. but there is a line of respect that can be crossed.

[killingkarma]

@cornbreadjtm agreed. unfortunately they already started implementing this. there are still mixed feelings on DADT. people will be professional to you on duty, but more than likely will continue to talk smack when off and amongst friends. oh well, i wish the best.

[cornbreadjtm]

@killingkarma And that is totally ok all this basically comes down to is that you should be able to do what you want to in your personal life as long as it doesn't hurt other people. and some ones sexual orientation has no bearing on work ethic or on anybody esles life. crack all the jokes you want to with your friends as long as it doesn't affect you work it's ok people are allowed to be as intolerant, ignorant and mean as they want.

[cornbreadjtm]

@VeteranConservative mainstream mental health professionals agree that homosexuality is not a mental illness and in 1986 homosexuality was removed from a the list of mental illness'. You cling to a report that has since been dis proven as i'm sure you cling to your bible to to make yourself feel better about the peoples lives you make hell becaus

[cornbreadjtm]

@VeteranConservative and of course when science proves you wrong you try to appeal to the normality of it let me assure you that it is totally natural for me and all of the other gay people i know. Also if you consider being prejudice, ignorant and intolerant you would be correct. out of you and me i think most would agree that you have the mental disorder.

[dunndaily]

Thank you for your service, screw everyone that tells you anything else. This should be the only thing they say. You are the one that was willing to risk your own life so they can have the stinking right to tell you that you are a bad person going to hell and is unnatural. It's bullshit...I support you!

[TOTCD]

DADT has been repealed will you re-enlist?

[Rolandapowell]

Glad people can now be open about who they are vimeo dot com /rolanda

[johntakai8429]

What a bummer. Now that it's repealed I hope you can get back in. But I know they probably won't. Bureaucratic policy sucks!

[IsmailaGodHasHeard1]

I used to support DADT until someone told me about people like you. Then I started speaking out against that horrible law, making some of my so called friends angry. I will never support that law again. As a Christian I believe that all people are precious in God's eyes. God bless you, and may you go far in your career. Hoorah.

[diepiriye]

Sorry to hear that you were made victim of our manic country. I love America, but rights for gays has to be the most recent example of just how far off our path we've gone wit ideals of freedom.

[rachelkui]

DADT has been repealed now, so you may try getting enlisted again if u still wanna be a sailor.

[MegaRoFLL]

Wait they take u out from beeing a soldier because you are gay? Sorry english not so good sorry for you bets of luck, remember some sides world some other gay get killed

[MrFeyerwire]

Well buddy, best advice as I can give you is file and appeal since the rules have changed you may have grounds to turn your discharge into an honorable one. Aside from that wrong place wrong time in regards to your discharge.
