If allowing Homosexuals to be open in the military makes folks like varrus & Alma want to leave it...

Well, that's a win-win situation if there ever was one.

I feel safer already.

Did you have a real question? One actually about the topic at hand? Because we weren't discussing child rearing or making lunch. Maybe you meant to start a new thread. I hope you weren't standing there with a hungry child waiting for my response all this time.

Or maybe you actually tried to create some lame reductionist argument where complex topics are turned into "DO WE EAT COOKIES?" because your actual argument can't stand up to any sort of scrutiny. Man, now I'm hoping you DO have a hungry child next to you because that'd be less humiliating. Oh well, let me know.

Sooooooo.. are you going to answer the question or not? It appears that you realize the point and refuse to answer the question because you know that you're wrong. That's ok, but you should at least man up about it.

WTF are you even talking about. The US military is the best because its equipment is the best. The personnel themselves have nothing to do with it. The US military is decades ahead of most nations, and is close allies with the nations that are even in the same tech generation. (britain france germany primarily).

Anyone can be trained to fire a gun, drive a tank, fly a plane (ok maybe not anyone as pilots generally are small in stature) etc etc so on. Be them male, female, she-he or he-she. (granted most nations limit females in combat), gay, lesbian, transexual, bi, hetero.

The US is not the best because of the people, they are the best because of their equipment.



That and ****** have been in the military for ever, the only thing that is changed is that they allowed them to say they are *****. That is it, and most probably won't go around talking about it, because douchebags like you will more than likely treat them like ****. Even if they were your best friend foe years.

You hate ****. Its ok you are allowed to, just don't be naive and pretend that they magically poofed into the military because DADT disappered, nothing has changed, and you will likely never find out who is ***** or not. Hell you might even be *****.

Im late to the party I guess. TBH i skipped most of the thread once alma got involved because it is generally just a mind **** trying to decipher his terrible analogies and god awful narratives, and there are much more enjoyable ways to **** with my mind.

I'll answer the question once it's a question about DADT and not about feeding children. Surely you're smart enough to ask about the actual topic at hand, right? And if you feel the characters in each scenario are directly analogous, you can just ask the question using people related to DADT, right?

If your plan was to just keep saying "You won't answer because you know..." and I was supposed to feel shamed that I won't answer a reductive and flawed question about ham sandwiches asked by a guy who's too afraid to ask about DADT, you might want to take it back to the drawing board.

If you're too dense to understand a conceptual argument, where you're making literal comparisons, then you have no one to blame but yourself and maybe your education system.

If you believe that nonsense, then not only do you fail to understand the military, but team work in general. Just because you throw together an all star team, doesn't mean they'll win a game. It takes discipline, training and team work. All of those factors are mutually exclusive of equipment.

I'm not a history buff, but I thought the colonies "army" was inferior equipment wise in comparison to the British.

If you don't want to answer and want to play/be dumb, then fine, but don't act like what I'm saying is irrelevant.

Ya the team doesn't always win (vietnam) but when you give your team the best equipment available they tend to have the best opportunity to win. America hasn't really been in a War with a relevant nation since WWII vs Japan and Germany. Your team is just people just like everyone else's army in the world.

But when that team can drop a missile into the ******* of a flea, its usually an indication of being better. If you think it's because of teamwork, discipline, and training you are a ******, that stuff doesn't cost 500+ billion dollars, your equipment and technology does.

Also if it means anything, **** have been there every step of the way...icky I know.

Ok, here. As a mother, if my child asked for ANY kind of sandwich before dinner, he would be told no. Feel better now?

Actually, I'm sticking with my "punch him in the face and ride off on a walrus" answer.

Once Alma wants to define exactly what the child, sandwiches and parent represent, I'll define what the punch and walrus represent. Until then, we can just assume that my answer directly and properly fits his question.

500+ billion dollars mean absolutely nothing if you fail at discipline, team work and training. I know that you think the U.S. wins battles by simply pressing a single button, but I assure you that isn't the case.

You must have gotten lost in translation. That's kind of how we got here. I made direct comments to DADT, you didn't understand. So, I took another avenue by explaining it in a conceptual argument that's easy to understand and can be applied to this scenario.

Obviously you finally understand and as opposed to manning up and saying "my bad", you want to act like it's irrelevant. It's nothing new. It's the same strategy. Call every valid question as irrelevant as opposed to just answering the question. You spent way more time not answering the question as opposed to just answering the question.
