| Message | 1: Do we really need to know if somebody's gay? Also it may lower the morale of some troops who know that one of their platoon mates is gay. 2: National law is more important that what some foreign bigwig thinks up. |

| Message | Well it could be expected from gays if not for the 'don't ask, don't tell' policy... :-P Btw, I've invited some gay friends over to my place last week, and they really weren't the pussy's you'd think they were. They tied me up to the bed really hard, and man they had muscles! Luckily the wife came home soon enough to scare them all away. I think you guys really are troubled with a stereotype view on gays, guys. |
