i understand where people are coming from with DADT, but why would you want to join the military if youre openly gay? i feel like bashing/hazing is imminent even if youre not homosexual, and the military is ground zero for homophobes.

If you are brave enough to join a group of largely homophobics in a historically homophobic environment go for it, I just wouldn't be too open about it.

we should put all the openly gay soldiers in their own little army and just send them in first in high risk situations. *


*DISCLAIMER: I am not a homophobe and i was making a sarcastic joke.

Who's joking? They'll peer through their headrags with their sand-laden eyes and let out subtle guffaws that we'll mistake for their herp derp language..

when really they just think it's funny our soldiers wear nail polish, ya digg?
