I've heard of stop loss and I live in the UK and am not particularly bothered about the issue. Wasn't there a movie called Stop Loss?

[Dinner]

I was stop losed for over a year by the Army and was really happy when they finally let me get out.

BUT YOU CAN'T HAVE BEEN! IT DOESN'T EXIST ASHER WROTE THE WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE ABOUT IT!

Jeeze Oerdin, you're such a liar.

[Dinner]

I know.

Considering he cited the Fort Hood episode, I'd say he thinks having gays openly in the military will cause them to shoot other soldiers.

If you read what I wrote the fact that Hassan was promoted despite saying that he wanted Americans to die in Iraq, I can see the same thing happening to gay people who sexually harass other members of the service.

Wow does it make you sleep better at night to believe that conservatives are ignorant. Yes, I know about stop-loss. I don't see what it has to do with DADT. Perhaps Asher can explain his non sequitor?

As much as I would like to continue this argument.....
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU"RE TALKING ABOUT ANYMORE.

You said there wasn't any issues with enlistment. If you knew what Stop-Loss was and the purpose it serves, you'd understand.

There's not enough soldiers to go around for all the wars the US is fighting.

You're not fooling anyone. You had no idea what it was and now after everyone plainly points out it's real, you're changing your story again. An honest man, you are.

In the bunghole

Really, who but the desperately and illogically homophobic wants DADT to continue?

Yes, that's right. If you give those queers an inch, they'll take a mile and start playing grab-ass with their fellow soldiers. Then, emboldened by the tolerance of those actions which somehow necessarily follows from axing DADT in your mind, they will start shooting up the place.

Do you read what you just typed before hitting "post?"

[rah]

The answer to that is obviously NO.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Ben, obviously, has no intention of being intellectually honest. Either that or he's a Grade A moron. Or both (that's what my money is on).

[rah]

But please, don't insult S Palin's kid by calling him retarded.

You wouldn't believe the number of straight men I have raped over the years at work, where gays and lesbians are protected from discrimination.

[rah]

Darn, now BK is going to use that as proof that he's right.
