"Because attraction reduces battlefield efficacy. In Israel they tried to integrate their military force with women, but they found that men behaved erratically to save the women that may have endangered themselves. Here it will be the same story, but with gays trying to protect other men. The battlefield is tough as it is - why put gays through it? Why put straight men through it?"
I couldn't refute his point. Anyone care to take it on?
How would that be any different from how it is now? Gays can currently serve in the military, just not openly. They're not being integrated into the military, they're already there, this bill will only make it so they won't be discharged if they are revealed as gay. You like what you like whether you say it or not.
