re: US Navy Fleet Oiler Named After Gay Rights Activist

Plenty of ships are named after politicians. Reagan never served in the Navy and he only made training films in Hollywood during the war and gets stuff named after him in the Navy.

He was also a Commander in Chief. There's a little bit of a difference there.

You do realize that a lot of gay men and women have served in the armed forces since the Revolutionary War and have served honorably and heroically.

Irrelevant. The criticism is twofold:

1) He didn't earn a ship.
2) He's a known child molester.

Would you support naming a parish in Boston after Shanley or Geoghan? Would you support naming a high school in central Pennsylvania after Jerry Sandusky? Would you support ba!ing a boat or federal building after Eric Massa or Mark Foley or Dennis Hastert? Would you support naming a Hollywood award after Polanski?

More sickness and brokenness from the Left.

It's a really bad brand. Pedos, deviants, degenerates, liars, masculine women and effeminate men.

Nobody loved semen more than Harvey Milk so I suppose it's fitting

So they should stop naming ships by your irrelevant logic right?

Don't know why I'm even bothering to respond, but my point is that the military should not be focusing on trying to appease every voting demographic. Name ships after US cities and states, presidents, and great military leaders.

While I'm at it, I'm bothered that it was named after somebody just because they were gay. I'm bothered that the gay person the Navy chose was a pedo. I'm bothered that it was even news worthy just because he was gay. I'm bothered that anyone that disagrees with the current naming convention is considered an unintelligent homophobic racist. If we want to name ships after people that had a great impact on improving people's lives, let's have the next ship be named the USS Billy Graham. I guess that would be offensive to liberals, so I won't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.

Fair point. But our post wasn't about naming a ship after a pedophile it was another hate filled anti gay statement that made no sense except in exposing your ignorance that is. Being gay isn't a social experiment unless your telling me you can choose to stick your dick in a guys arse and love it

Right.

So anytime someone does something abnormal, its because they couldn't help it? If that were the case, then criminals, drunks, addicts, wife beaters, rapists, etc could never be 'rehabbed'. Ever

The military has become an avenue to promote social agendas. Why ignore common sense and results of studies ordered by the military for millions of dollars that point out that women should not serve in combat roles? Study Why push to have transgender people in the military when it is a mental disorder (gender dysphoria)? Why put people in combat roles that may develop a sexual attraction to each other and have to live with the consequences of the associated drama that can lead to poor decision making?

It is another example of pushing an agenda at the expense of military effectiveness.

Milk served in the Navy and was an assassinated politician which is good enough for a little boat n the Navy.

No, JFK served in the Navy and was assassinated. Milk served in the Navy and got shot. He was a malcontent who made his preference for cock sucking the central thrust of his entire life. Nobody loves huge tiddies more than me but I don't make it the central theme of my life and shove it in every man, woman and child's face that I meet. That's the difference.

Yep it's not like the Army is forcing cadets to walk around in high heels
to promote sexual awareness Not a social experiment at all
