    Instead of taking the bisexual, gay, and lesbian forces who are quite capable of conducting themselves properly under strict military rules and discipline, some less than scrupulous recruiter enlists a kid with autism. Instead of allowing brave gay men from joining the ranks of the military, we would rather allow felons, autistic folks, and skinheads in the service. Obama must see this for the crisis in our military that it is.

      I can't believe that knowing he's autistic, they are moving forward with charges against him. What a bunch of dumb f**ks to be in powerful positions within our military. When are we going to demand that fools like that be held accountable? When?

        Here we go again...making something then punishing what is created by someone...and that is not Judicious...it's a sign of the unintelligent.

          ExclusiveOne, comments like that will swiftly get you blackballed here at Propeller. See, in Spinland, we frown on people using that term in such a derogatory fashion. Furthermore, the word is "Autistic" not artistic. Are you only 12? Really, you should leave the discussions to the adults.
