Reply to Gays in the Military? I honestly don't see the problem... in Current Events JoeUser Forums

My solution - Spartan regiments. Every man or woman in it is gay. No one has to worry about communal showering then, and relationships within the regiment will make them better fighters. I applaud the idea actually but I think that current gay culture int he Us would actually tend to blow the second part of it out of the water. Even units with large per

Gays Are Already In The Military & Telling : The Pokekorean in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Sugar-High Elf asked what the problem would be with gay folks being in the military in this article . Rather than glom up her commentary with a long post I just decided to write a response. The problem is not "gays in the military" as there are plenty already serving. The problem tends to come about when gays (particularly gay men ) "c

What about GM and cloned meat? Read any Jared Diamond? Alomst every single crop or animal we have today are the product of GM. Mendel wasn't the progenitor of this by any means. Diamond makes the case that progressing beyong hunter-gatherer society is not possible without the GM of plants and animals.

Penn and Teller really hit this issue hard in one of their first episodes of Bullshit. They focused on Norman Borlaug , who realizes that using inefficient food production methods is just wrong on a commercial scale.

Sure, but the leadership didn't take that into account when requesting the initial surge? Dude, have you ever talked to an officer? This suprises you still?

Reply to Army to Inject Soldiers with Liquid Kevlar in Humor JoeUser Forums

but the military issue versions rival Storm Trooper costumes for bulk and annoyance! Yes the difference is the ability to protect against large 7.62 rounds. Only the bulky, heavy, and hot ceramic strike plates make the body armor anythig more than a flak vest. Personal protection under suits is deisgned to protect against small caliber handgun

Of Battles and "Battle Captains" in Politics JoeUser Forums

Fact 1: There are very few Warriors who actively fight the enemy in armed combat in the Army. I would put this percentage at 15% or less of the active duty force and I frankly think that is an overestimation. Fact 2: The Army is full of pogue retards who desperately want to be thought of as Warriors. they often seek to associate themselves with the Iraq or Afghan Wars by using lots of jargon like "Battlespace", "Warfighter", and give their pogue staff titles like "Battle Captain"

Reply to Women and Video Games : Game Devs Hate Chicks in Gaming JoeUser Forums

No One Lives Forever was a great spy/FPS game with a female protagonist. I think more games like that one might be what the industry needs to give the genre a better light to those women turned off from the rest. Perhaps, but I think the industry would be better served by simply allowing more features for people whose wife

Regardless of everything that lead up to it, he's the one that's taking the fall he is taking the fall for lying to a grand jury. The same Grand Jury that Cheney testified in front of and didn't lie to. I think he was convicted because he had a shitty memory and the jury wasn't really sure what he did but seemed convinced that he needed to be

Males are most likely to do the most exciting things. I.E. war, fighting, racing, scifi type stuff. so ladies, get your asses into jets, strap on guns and kick Captain kirk ou of his seat and well play games about you, maybe I think you have just illustrated the problem (albeit unintentionally). This is the attitude that many ma

Reply to How long can this go on? in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I agree with Dr. Guy here... it can and likely will go on for a very long time. When it does come to a regime change it is also unlikely to make any difference whatsoever.

For most commenters: RTFA. Not talking about gamer girls here at all. Not a bit. Most of commentary here seems to have completely missed that point. Actually, Rainbow six is accurate (well, liberally.) Most world military powers still don't allow females in special warfare units Accuracy is not the issue. Fun is. Additionally the artic
