But hey, way to judge me, lump me in with a population that you have extreme bias against, without even knowing me. Kinda like the bias Trump expressed toward transgender service members he has never met. It sucks when we are in the group which is the target of unfair bias. RE: Trump bans transgender people from serving in U.S. military 'in any capacity' - Bengalzona - 07-28-2017 “You don’t need to be ‘straight’ to fight and die for your country.” “I don’t care if a soldier is ‘straight’, as long as he can shoot straight.” - Sen. Barry Goldwater ®, in reference to the debate over letting homosexuals serve in the military.

No, that does not apply. Trump is a public figure, I am a mere private citizen.

Trump is a public figure, I am a mere private citizen. My point was we don't like it when we are the victims of unfair bias so we should guard against doing it to others, private or public figures.

Well, when it comes to myself, I have to draw a line somewhere. Being "classified" as a "holy roller" and part of the "religious Right", is where it ends. The guy (ballsofsteel) doesn't know a thing about me, in reality. Fact is, I haven't even practiced organized religion in over 20 years. If it continues, I'll have no choice but to consider it a personal attack without any basis or foundation.

Its just that I assume that anyone who defends a certain population multiple times must identify with them. ![]() RE: Trump bans transgender people from serving in U.S. military 'in any capacity' - TheLeonardLeap - 07-28-2017 (07-28-2017, 07:29 PM)Matt_Crimson Wrote: Wait, when did you become a mod?

Not sure he is the best judge of who can or can't serve in the military.

Defeating the English, Independence, meh. But reviving the good old days of transgender discrimination, that's true greatness, that's what history will forever remember. Except for fake history, of course. Yes Trump as "The greatest president to have ever lived" does sound a bit far fetched to say the least doesn't it? I'd just though I'd reciprocate all the ridiculous and exaggerated anti Trump remarks with ones 180 degrees the opposite way.

Who are you saying "intentionally" misquoted AR 40? Regardless, I don't find it funny at all. Reference paragraph 2-27(n) in AR 40-501 and let me know what you think. RE: Trump bans transgender people from serving in U.S. military 'in any capacity' - Vlad - 07-31-2017 Now soldiers can go back to pretending to be trans to get out of the military!..lol. ![]() RE: Trump bans transgender people from serving in U.S. military 'in any capacity' - oncemoreuntothejimbreech - 07-31-2017 (07-31-2017, 01:49 PM)Vlad Wrote: Who are you saying "intentionally" misquoted AR 40? Uh . . . (07-28-2017, 12:51 PM)Vlad Wrote: There is a stark difference between trans and gay. A gay may like the taste of dog food, but a trans thinks he's a dog. It seems you are confusing gender dysphoria with transexualism as interchangeable synonyms. Would you like me to explain the difference? I don't think the President publicly discriminating againt a group of service members is funny, either.

I already covered this on the previous page to include the correct quote and an explanation of the different clinical terms. |
