Please. That's fricking retarded. You're denigrating Marines because you don't think they're capable of self control?

Women are currently, according to the law of the land, accepted into military service. If anyone doesn't like that, they should change the law.
That said, the military should respect women as fellow service members. The US military has a long and very proud history of integrating all varieties of citizens (and non-citizens) into service and meeting its mission requirements (which don't and shouldn't include social experimentation for political purposes). It has not always been perfect but, at the end of the day, the US military offers supreme examples of how to bring units into cohesion, regardless of the make up of a unit's individual members. Not that this process has always been expeditious or perfect but it has set standards that other organizations pale against.
Beyond all that, there should be a single set of standards for all soldiers relative to the roles they are asked to undertake in service of their country - no exceptions - and those standards should reasonably reflect the requirements of the given job. If anyone -male or female- cannot meet such standards, they can't -and shouldn't- have the job.

LMAO. What kind of operation do you think the Marine corps is running?
They aren't choir boys. They don't want choir boys. They want killers. Their purpose is to break shite and kill people.
And you're snowflaking out over dudes being dudes
And you're confusing disciplined killing machines with highschool dropouts carrying guns
Strange that Marines tend to do quite well in the civilian world after they separate.. and somehow manage to avoid rampant sexual abuse and rape
Get rid of the bad apples.. make an example out of them.. and let the Marines keep on doing what they do. That's how you deal with this shite. You don't deflect the blame to the women serving their country or make excuses or justify their poor behavior.

Then be happy with getting rid of the fricking retards who are too dumb to not get caught.
Like I said.. the bar is being set awfully low for a once prestigious branch

I'm going to agree with everything you said. And very well said at that.

you cannot expect that force to be the same force and act as efficiently as they once did.

What about the women Marines that willingly shared their pics?
Posted on 3/21/17 at 11:10 am to WhiskeyPapa
How about only allow men into the Marine Corps

You are late.
