		<description>To my mind, there is absolutely nothing special about being a gay male as there is nothing special about being a lesbian. The rules and the laws should apply to straights, gays, and anyone else. In Canada about  160 men have been killed while protecting us from agressors in Afganistan and only 3 or 4 females have passed away. Sometimes I think the gender odds are even higher in the Unated States. I&#039;m fed up with this nonesens. That girl made a choice- so, please,  deal with it. She might be returned back to the US.</description>

		<description>I do not understand why people who have joined the military then expect after being trained and paid to do so expect not to go to places where they might get shot at! The military is not a welfare job! If you don&#039;t want to go to where bullets fly then plain and simple- don&#039;t join!!!!- DUH- No playing the gay card- nobody is fooled!</description>

		<description>Of COURSE marriage equality leads to incest. Marriage equality results in easier adoption by same-sex couples, which leads to Billy and Jenny Smith getting separated at birth, which leads to Billy getting adopted by Eve and Evelyn, which leads to Billy and Jenny hooking up their senior year of college at a pro-choice rally. It&#039;s that simple.</description>
