Who cares if it's a penis or a vagina behind the trigger??

It shouldnt matter whats behind the trigger. Just how well that penis or vagina shoots.

funny you'd put it that way - women are almost always better shots.

(reference: time spent on precision target rifle team.)

Just because you are good on the range doesn't mean your as good a shot when the bullets are flying back.

Or that you are willing to kill.

[Triggar]

Do you think that there aren't men who shit their pants when bullets fly towards them?

Do you think that there aren't any women who wouldn't throw down in a combat situation?

Haven't you ever seen Full Metal Jacket? Remember the sniper? IT WAS A WOMAN.

I didn't intend it to sound like only women would lose it when they face combat situations. Hell maybe I would maybe I wouldn't no one ever knows till they face it.

This should be moved to political debate

[Triggar]

I was just trying to make the point that it isn't a gender issue. And shouldn't be.

[Everay]

but it is, thats the thing, and you and a army of supporters wont get the brass to change their minds till they do, i personaly, think it should be tried out like the black aviators and buffalo soldiers were, they started off as experiments and both groups proved to be some of the best combat soldiers or aviators ever.

[Disconnections]

One flaw in that plan Everay:

The army no longer makes divisions based on gender or race. An all female division cannot prove themselfs for equal rights because they never will create a division like that. How many all black army divisions are out there in service again?

[Red October]

Too old.

If I wasn't, I come from a long line of reletives and religion with a 10 mile long file at least flooded with our people's military prison records. And for those who tell us to leave...many have actually told the judge that they are willing to accept permanent exile and loss of citizenship from the United States. So far its been pretty unanimous by the judge's.....prison.

[Triggar]

So would integrating women into the basic structure of the armed forces.
