When the drill instructors came in at 0430 screaming at everyone to GET UP!! GET UP!! GET UP!!, this guy started shaking. He shook so badly, he couldn't even stand at attention. He shook for about a week and they sent him home. I couldn't imagine what his life must have been like before he joined. There was a time when the drill instructors were supposed to shake out the weaklings; what do they do lately? Are they not permitted to be tough on the recruits? <br /><br />A woman once asked me why the drill instructors acted like that. I had to explain to her that the idea is to eliminate the ones who can't take the (relatively mild) stress of boot camp, because they would surely break under the stress of real action.

That "policy" as was so many of his policies and directives, nothing more than a giant middle finger to Americans. It's like he tried to figure out ways to irritate the hell out of us, flip us big one, and his enablers in the media and democrat party (and about five of the Repubs in the senate and a few more in the house) did what they can to help. I'm talkin' about you ABCCBSMBCCMMAFPReutersAP and so forth. Plus you Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Ms Murkowsy and the gentlewoman from Maine, I think it is. Plus Boener (thank God and greyhound he's gone), plus many others who claim to be on our side but merely lied to us for votes from 2008 on. (Spelling of names may be erroneous, but I don't care enough about them to look them up.)<br /><br />As for bona fide wimminfolk wanting to go into special operations, they'be been case officers for years in the military and the clandestine civilian service. I wouldn't doubt if some have completed the CIA Operators-type courses, whatever they call it. They should check with CIA and see how women operators are doing there, and maybe join them IF that's really what they're looking for and not juxg badges, buzzers and whistles on their uniforms, or to force a point.<br /><br />Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13668828493801753456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-71305260777420604912017-07-28T14:10:57.725-05:002017-07-28T14:10:57.725-05:00More along the lines of Major Nidal: You know the...More along the lines of Major Nidal: You know the trans is going to be untouchable.

Anyhoo, My favorite Uncle who landed on Guadalcanal the day I was born told me, as has been stated here a few times, "The military's job is to kill people and break things". He's also the reason I became a Marine. A transgendered person evidently is confused about weather they are a male, female, or some other entity of living creature past, present, or future. I can envision this scenario; Gunny screams out "Alright you bastards, everyone out of your foxholes and attack". The tranny yells "Oh, drat, I broke a nail. What shall I do?" And that's only one of about a million scenarios I can envision.

For what it's worth, the links are ALWAYS the same: you can just enter the URL StiltonsPlace.com whenever you want and get here.<br /><br />And like you, I'm tired of hearing about the trans issues. Doesn't mean I'm entirely unsympathetic, but I <i>do</i> have a sense of priorities and an exhausted sense of patience.<br /><br />@Judi King- I'd like some real science to back up the claims made by transgenders. It seems distinctly lacking so far, which doesn't necessarily mean it's not out there somewhere. Heck, we don't even know why some people are Gay. But <i>until</i> there is solid science, we shouldn't be fooling around with institutions like the military. And indeed, as I pointed out, even if we're 100% sympathetic to transgenders, they're still medically "high maintenance" and should reasonably be rejected just like others with medical conditions which might impair their ability to perform.<br /><br />@Alej- I also read that post-transition (ie, after surgery) the new genitalia needs constant maintenance because the body believes it's a wound that should heal back into it's original factory configuration.<br /><br />@Ruggles- A demonstrably high percentage of transgenders have psychological issues (which is hardly surprising, and which I don't condemn). But again, the military has a hard enough job without needlessly adding problems.<br /><br />@Tracy Evans- Funny you should mention Napoleon. I believe part of the male-to-female transition surgery consists of taking the Bonaparte. (Okay, I'm going to PC hell for that one...)<br /><br />@Geoff King- Only French military vehicles need to go in reverse. (grin)<br /><br />@Rod- On the one hand, it's probably useful for Trump to stir the pot and have us discuss these issues rationally. On the other hand, it's now looking like he may NOT have "consulted with (his) generals" and <i>certainly</i> sprang this policy move on them without warning, creating considerable confusion and disarray which is - in the short term, at least - more distracting and counterproductive than having the transgenders continue to serve.<br /><br />I do my level best to be supportive of Trump here (as evidenced by today's cartoon and commentary), but <i>damn it</i>, I wish he'd at least let up on the <i>obviously</i> boneheaded and or untrue tweets. <br /><br />@James Daily- I'm personally willing to stretch the definitions of "normal" quite a bit, even though some folks will only get under the tent flap as "normal-<i>ish</i>." But that being said, the military doesn't need the hassles and headaches.<br /><br />@rickn8or- You're quite right that such "special" individuals would be fast-tracked into leadership positions rather than have anyone risk their own careers by seeming <i>insensitive</i>. That's how Nidal Hassan kept getting promoted while talking about beheading American soldiers and pouring boiling oil down their throats...before he massacred more than a dozen of them when they were unarmed.<br /><br />@Alan Mcintire- Exactly. I'm just shy of 65, about 80 pounds overweight, and have the muscle mass of a gummi worm. But I <i>identify</i> as a rip-snorting all-American death machine. That does not mean I should have the right to endanger all those who would be depending on me to carry a weapon more than 50 feet without stopping to wheeze.<br /><br />@Stan da Man- Perfectly summed up!<br /><br />@John the Econ- Great post. And yes, I've already seen accusations that straight white guys are bigots if they're uncomfortable dating "chicks with dicks." It seems like the Left just wants to turn all rational thought (and biological realities) into a great, gray soup that they can redefine to their liking at any time.<br /><br />And I agree, this is how you get more Trump.<br /><br />@Shelly- Well said!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-47112058343508731482017-07-28T10:23:39.606-05:002017-07-28T10:23:39.606-05:00The cloying suffocating doctrine of political corr...The cloying suffocating doctrine of political correctness and social justice warrioring has already gotten people killed in our fighting forces.

Clearly, these people are not big on science.<br /><br />As @Stilton points out, there's a long list of conditions that will deny you entry into America's fighting forces. The rationale for this should be obvious; they military isn't supposed to be a social welfare organization. Their job is to be ready to kill people and break things, and dealing with with individual cases of gender dysphoria does not forward that goal. It's also maddening to note that this seems to be the priority of many people while countless veterans who have already served and sacrificed in our armed forces <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/4/phoenix-va-builds-new-backlog-200-veterans-die-wai/" rel="nofollow">are shunted off to waiting lists until they eventually die</a>. Our military has enough to deal with without taking on board people who's lives are already a disaster before the bullets start flying.<br /><br />Also missing from this debate is the question of <i>just how many people are we talking about here?</i> Out of about 1.5-million personnel in the forces, a couple hundred? Dozens? Does this really warrant the kind of hysteria it's generating?<br /><br /><b>Or is this really about the pushback that the left is finally getting after over 25 years of converting our military into a grand, dysfunctional parade of Progressive social experiments?</b><br /><br /><a href="https://spectator.org/the-lefts-breaking-point/" rel="nofollow">The American Spectator had an great take on the whole transgender movement earlier this month</a>, suggesting that the left has finally jumped the shark. Having successfully shoved so much of it's social agenda down America's throat over the last 8 years, it's possible that they've finally overreached, and the pendulum is on its way back:<br /><br /><i>"What I’d like to leave you with is this — can there be any more mind-blowing overreach than for the Left to present this to the public? Is this not the exposed flank from which the rout may commence? <b>Let’s start asking Democrat politicians if they think straight men are bigots if they don’t want to date shemales.<br /><br />Stop laughing for a second, and think about this. We’ve now stumbled on what might be the greatest wedge issue in modern American political history. How are they going to answer the question? If they repudiate the transgender movement, they also repudiate the tactic of shaming as intolerant those people who reject the latest fad of social radicalism, and how far back can that be rolled?<br /><br />But if not, does the entire Democrat Party not fall off the deep end to the disgust and rejection of the American public?</b>"</i><br /><br />In other words, <i>"Want more Trump? Because this is how you get more Trump".</i>John the Econnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-75107701794035012292017-07-28T09:01:51.753-05:002017-07-28T09:01:51.753-05:00Air Force wont let me fly jets due to my eyes.
