Finally: Ash Carter Announces End to Military's Ban on Transgender Recruits

Now, you have nothing to worry about from ISIS, which isn't an "existential threat" and whose monthly slaughters of innocents just shows how feeble and desperate they are, but you should know that if the US military does not begin enlisting transgenders, it would be a bleeding gutwound to the Constitution and our ever-evolving values.

The Pentagon said Thursday it was ending the ban on transgender people being able to serve openly in the U.S. military.

The announcement -- which removes one of the last barriers to military service by any individual -- was made by Defense Secretary Ash Carter, who had been studying the issue for almost a year. The decision comes as the military has witnessed major changes in the role of women and the inclusion of gays, lesbians and bisexual service members in recent years.

"The Defense Department and the military need to avail ourselves of all talent possible in order to remain what we are now -- the finest fighting force the world has ever known," Carter said Thursday at the Pentagon.

The big winner? Bradley "Chelsea" Manning, the Rosa Parks of zir generation.

Transgenders need to be on medication constantly. There was a guy in my husband's unit who had to go on his overseas tour unaccompanied for 18 months because the military ruled that the medical care in that SE Asian country could not take care of his wife if she had an asthma attack. We won't be able to send transgenders anywhere without first-world medicine and therapy. So, they won't have a "normal" military experience and will cost more than they can give in service.

231 Thousands of mourners have gathered in the Judean town of Kiryat Arba near Hevron on Thursday afternoon, for the funeral of Hallel-Yaffa Ariel, the 13-year-old girl murdered in her sleep by an Arab terrorist.


Rina, the mother, spoke at the funeral. "God, Father, how do you give a eulogy for a 13 and a half year old girl? I had the merit of giving birth to you and from that moment on my life was filled with light. For 13 and a half years you gave her to me for safe keeping, and now I give her back to you. But Father, there's no more room up there in heaven, the people of Kiryat Arba have already filled it.

"Sarah, our mother, hold her close up there, even though it's crowded. Hallel has gained a mother and father in heaven."

Hallel's mother continued: "I want to address the mother of the terrorist who did this. I teach my children to love and you've educated yours to hate. God, take her, she's yours now, I've finished my part."

Rina ended the eulogy with the Shema prayer.

Tesla Draws Scrutiny From Regulators After Autopilot Feature Linked to a Death

Fatal crash in semi-autonomous Model S first known of its kind, Tesla says

...
U.S. auto-safety regulators are investigating Tesla Motors Inc.'s autopilot feature after a motorist using the system died in Florida, ratcheting up scrutiny of the Silicon Valley electric-vehicle company's highly-touted technology and driverless cars more broadly.

...Regulators opened the probe after Tesla alerted them to a fatal highway crash in Williston, Fla., May 7 in which a 2015 Model S was using the autopilot feature. The crash occurred when a tractor-trailer made a left turn in front of the Tesla car at an intersection of a noncontrolled access highway, the agency said, citing preliminary reports. The driver died in the crash.

I disagree. I never really cared what someone's buying motive was for joining the military. As long as he or she did their job and could be trusted, I was fine with that and so were the troops. For many the college fund/GI Bill was their only way into school. For others the training was a direct link to a great job afterwards. Some Union certified. For others yet it was a family duty and a sense of patriotism.
But everyone knew, in most units too, not just mine, that our business was success in war. And that's what we trained for.

I knew a couple of guys like that when I went in (c.1982). I'd say the redemption rate was +50%. A lot of them were disciplinary issues and got d-charged. Some straightened up and were career soldiers. Probably saved some lives.

Times change, a college diploma didn't used to cost $250k and providing free health care was not nearly as expensive as it is today.

It's becoming awfully expensive to lure these people to serve, maybe we need to look at a smaller force.

"Tranny" has usually meant "cross-dresser". The number of transsexuals has always been so small that "tranny" was never really applied to them. It's only now that the Left has pushed the word "tranny" to mean both transvestites and transsexual. ANy little bit of confusion helps the Left's cause.

318 The announcement -- which removes one of the last barriers to military service by any individual -- was made by Defense Secretary Ash Carter, who had been studying the issue for almost a year. The decision comes as the military has witnessed major changes in the role of women and the inclusion of gays, lesbians and bisexual service members in recent years.

If only. Our military continues to discriminate against felons. They refuse to teach ex-cons the ways of war. Just think how useful those murderers and rapists could be if we would only weaponize them.

Before gays were allowed to openly serve in the military, there was fraud. People would train to become doctors, the military would pay for it all,and the day they graduated, they said they were gay


Free medical school. We would get dozens of those a year. Then came "don't ask don't tell". Being gay was no longer disqualifying for service. So then, the moment these doctors graduated, they declared they were conscientious objectors.
Again. Free medical school.

I predict the following. Trans people who cannot afford reassignment surgery will join the military, get their treatments and surgery for free. The moment they have transitioned, they will seek discharge. I have zero doubt about this

Now DoD has said the military member has to have 18 months of service behind them before they will begin transitioning. I am sure they are thinking that with the com commit mental health issues, it will be difficult for these people to put 18 months together

I think they are wrong. First, the message is out that they get special treatment. You don't give it to them, you are the bigot screwing up your career. Second, someone will sue about the 18 month wait saying its discriminatory and no one else has to wait 18 months for medical treatment

And then the mission of the military will change, especially the medical personnel


It's terrible. It has nothing to do with readiness. It is a fertile area for enlistment fraud. Stupid

It depends on what you mean by "work".

If you follow the normal Soviet penal battalion practice of placing NKVD troops with machine guns behind the penal battalion to shoot anybody who turned around or advanced too slowly and issue ammunition to every body but only give rifles to every third member of the penal battalion, you are likely to get the sort of results you might expect.

We can still have police, since the government needs someone to collect taxes from speeding, jaywalking, and making left turns in NJ. No guns needed for that. The military can replace all the weapons with a bunch of daisies to stuff in enemy rifles.

Meanwhile, I will be at the surplus auction bidding on a tank and some other goodies.

358 Our military is in the worse shape it's been since the post Vietnam 70s and this is what these fucking idiots do. So how's this going to work? What physical training standards do the tranny troops have to adhere to?

Someone please tell me one other functioning country that lets he/shes serve in their armed forces.

I just read the new "regs" and it is worse than you think. So much is left vague that it is going to be a cluster fuck of mamouth proportions .

361 I always get peeved and then feel guilty that maybe something bad happened to the person, which it never does. That shit only happens in the movies.

Believe me when I say this! I made a similar assumption about a co-worker. Don't make any assumptions until you know for sure that nothing serious has caused a delay or absence!

365 Thank God the wars of the future will be fought by robots, and the military's job will be to fix those robots.

Seriously, why can't Lockheed just manufacture a T-1000; I mean, it's gender neutral.

366 JJ Sefton @ 4:24- 72nd anniversary of Uncle shot to pieces on Saipan.
The 21st of this month marked the 72nd year since my old Pappy got shot to pieces at St. Lo. The deliberate destruction of our military by this regime in particular. And yeah, it does make a person want to cry, and cuss, and break stuff, and hurt (some) people.

369 Predicted leadership ability of these folks--zero. As to this statement:

"The Defense Department and the military need to avail ourselves of all talent possible in order to remain what we are now "

well, there's a pretty good case study out there saying Democrats don't actually believe that, now do they?

373 So recruiting will be more expensive now to meet the requirements for a transgender to join the military. Also, they will cost more due to medical requirements. If my daughter decided to enlist, I would discourage her even though a retired Marine. There is a good reason why there are so few transgender people in Law Enforcement; the majority can not pass the psych exam.

377 Well, June was my first month of post-military life. I served for 23 and a half years and seriously considered giving it until Feb 2017 just so that ass-hat's signature wouldn't be on any of my official documents. Now, I'm thinking I may have really dodged a bullet. I can always wipe my ass with the paper, but there's nothing I could do but laugh (and be reeducated afterwards) when my peers start showing up in skirts with 5-o-cock shadow.

I read an article the other day that they're considering a program that would take civilians with no prior military experience and bring them in with ranks as high as O6 (colonels). My last commander was a colonel; she was sharp as a tack, had the years experience behind her to back it up, and was a great leader. I just don't understand how someone could be brought in and learn her 20+ years of military experience in less than 1 and make an effective leader.

Actually, I understand fully what the intent is, I just hate to think of it.

384 The Pentagon, Washington, D.C.) Coming on the high heels of the decision to fight our wars with the Bruce Jenner Brigades, President Obama today made another historic choice preference decision he was born that way.

"Today, I am removing the last barrier to military service by any individual for a group that has always demonstrated a keen interest in our military and an unquenchable desire to serve on the battlefield."

"We need to avail ourselves of all talent possible in order to remain what we are now -- the finest fighting force/social lab rats/jobs program the world has ever known. That is why in the spirit of inclusion, we must finally allow these dedicated people to serve openly in the U.S. military."

"I mean, of course, Gitmo Detainees."

"Think about it; they've been studying us at Guantanamo, their commitment is lifelong and you can't keep them from returning to the battlefield," said the President.

Sec. of Defense Ash Carter said the new Gitmo Brigades would be run out of the Mohammed Atta Memorial Wing of the Pentagon where arrows would be painted on the floor pointing to Mecca "because it's so easy to get turned around inside that building!"

385 So in a night club filled with hundreds of patrons from the LGBT community they are unable to take down a lone gunman, motivated by his religious fervor even though there were several opportunities to do so are now going to be the primary defenders of the country against an enemy whose allegiance is to this same religious ideology. What could go wrong?

Also message to straight men, we don't need you.
