No, not the Britcom.
People in our armed forces. Heterosexual men in our armed forces.
The same concerns over allowing people who are same-sex oriented to serve mirrors the issue of women serving in our armed forces. The issue is, who does one blame when someone behaves badly.
Do you blame the victims, or do you hold anyone, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, accountable for their actions? Do you require culture of responsible behavior, or do you tolerate a culture of sexual misconduct?
Jon Stewart got to the point last February, commenting on another Fox News Culture War on Women incident. Seriously, the right wing extremists keep trying to deny there is a war on women, but THIS makes sense to them. Boys will be boys........????????????????????????????????
No.
Wrong.
Bad.
If the culture of our military needs to be changed, then CHANGE IT. Don't exclude women, don't exclude gays. Our military has been reduced to accepting convicted felons. We have separated people in key security skills, notably Arabic language translators, because they were gay, when our national security depended on those skills. Gee........do you think accepting criminals might be part of our problem with conduct in the military generally, as well as our problem with rape of women personnel or sexual harassment of women personnel in a way that allowing gays to serve would not be a problem?
Samantha Bee delivers the sarcasm, undiluted.
