but are you saying that if he's not in the military, the thread isn't worth your time?
i'm just assuming you are, because every time there's a thread criticizing the military on pretty much any forum i'm on, the military guys all act that way.

It's just a matter of how I will word it, and how much I will have to explain.

It would be a waste of my time to over-explain things if it is not required.


Sorry, but you're not going to fit me into your ignorant stereotype quite that easily.

you're free to spin your post how you please.

but since you ARE actually in the military, i'd like to hear your opinion anyway.

More importantly, to me at least, do you know of/have any military law experience? Only reason I ask is because JAG may be in my future, and I want to know how far off I am in my reasoning.

I think the op was just asking questions, not necessarily arguing. For people with little to no experience with the legal system, these type of things are extremely confusing (not that having experience helps all that much!). They are tough to explain, and even tougher to comprehend.

I wasn't saying anything about DADT. I was saying that DADT is not part of the UCMJ. It's a separate law. For him doing a compare and contrast between the two is a fallacy of logic.
