Isn't this the guy who dressed up in his mothers clothes and stabbed Janet Leigh to death in the shower?

...the Abu Gharib photos?

I wonder if what offends him is that there is either a gay soldier serving with the support and blessings of his fellow troops of if the soldier who raised that flag is straight and is showing his solidarity with the gays in his outfit?

Either would serouusly piss off all of the tony perkins types to no end. Good!

PEACE!

while in uniform. If I were there as his squad leader, I would definitely make him put this away.


but dont worry, I would have sandbag duty, extra PT and extra OP rotations for the soldiers who make any discriminatory comments. Gotta be fair!!

I remarked about that possibility in my earlier response. THAT may piss the perkins types off even more. If it does, than good.

PEACE!

they like to think to make themselves feel better. remember all the crap about how people will want to leave the military if DADT is repealed ?

but look this soldier that is straight and married to a woman is showing his support for gays serving. i guess he doesn't think his marriage is over now because of the gays.

...just why the bagger/fundie/rethug crew thought that if gay people married, than their marriage was in danger.

One of the reasons I could never understand it is because no bagger/fundie/rethug has ever been able to give me an answer that wasn't insensible BS.

PEACE!
