"..when there's nothing wrong with people having sex in the military?


Do your research as there are rules and a lot of them. Take for instance the Navy rule of while you are on a ship or any rule of fraternization among enlisted and officers..... I know you think you know about the military but let me tell you, those rules that govern a civilian society are all thrown out the window when you are in the military. Get caught doing these as a male or female and more than likely you will be kicked out of the military....now see a reason to scream "rape"? Did you know that in the military if you are married and get caught with someone else other than your spouse that you will more than likely be kicked out? Please educate yourself, GOOGLE is your friend.

I see that it is obvious that you have no clue in what rules are set forth by the military, if you are gonna try and make your argument you should really familiarize yourself with the various military laws that govern sex and sexual contact....you owe it to yourself so you do not come of as appearing ignorant to these rules/laws.


"I'll even go one further that you brought up that some of these alleged prostitutes are charging $200 a pop as though it's a fortune when it's INSANELY cheap because you wish it could be you making that"

Wish I could be making that? I sold a business and retired at age 40. My wife is a Director over 31 hospitals....do I need to say that we are "doing OK?" Raise yourself up above this type of argument it's not very progressive of you.

"As you indicated clearly in another post on this subject, you're alleging that there is no rampant sexual assault in our armed forces"

Let's see anywhere I indicated that clearly? Or will I receive yet another apology? Not one single time in any of my posts did I even mention anything that should made you come to this conclusion. Again, it's all about comprehension....you can not win an argument so you pull things out of thin air, things that you "want to hear" vs what was said....try and keep up.

"What the hell do you care if there's prostitution going on anyway? It should be legal and regulated".

Again, educate yourself on this subject matter that you know nothing about when it comes to our military rules, you are diggin a hole with this argument and have no clue of the rules.

"Since we established that the alleged problem of rampant prostitution is caused by the demand side (the male buyers) then how logical is it to want the females whether their prostitutes or not out of combat troops"

You have only established this in your own mind there is no "we" in there, the only thing I see in there is a "you think you have established this". How sexist of you to not even lay any blame on the females?

"you make up sexist bullshit to try to claim that not only are these women "whores" but completely illogically crying rape when caught having sex that is the reason for the rampant claims of sexual assault and even that rather than the EVIDENCE"

Um the only ones I called "whores" are the ones that were selling sex, if your touchy side would rather me call them "prostitutes" then I will as I know it makes you feel much better....look up either word in the dictionary and I am sure you will get the same definition.

And continuing on....where did I mention once again anything about "sexual assault" and any statement that I made regarding it in any of my posts...which should I ask for this time? An apology? Or ask you to quit painting in your head what you think you hear...words to not lie they are there for all to see and yet you see them so different? Again, it's all about comprehension.


"I know why you think sexual assault claims by women are magically "different" then any other claims of crimes against people as you've made it abundantly clear."

I do not think this at all and I still do not know where I addressed this anywhere in any of my posts. Another apology coming my way?


"If you said anything else just as stupid and disgustingly sexist I'm not addressing it since there's only so much of that shit one can reasonably take, and I've hit well past my limit."

Ah you have no argument, misconstrue everything and then you want to take your ball and run home with it....you are no better than the OP.


and with all of this said I will leave you with your own statement you used and I ask that you "think about it":


Do you see the problem now of pulling really idiotic crap out of one's own butt without a single thought to what one is actually saying?

You used a fetus in the womb for a photo of the child? Why? blm May 2014 #41
The photo is from Telemundo LA 951-Riverside May 2014 #42
No - the photo of the fetus in the womb is not there. Your OP uses a photo op image blm May 2014 #45
It's there look at the first link 951-Riverside May 2014 #48
Doesn't come up when clicked. The other photos do. blm May 2014 #51
They probably removed it from the page sometime after OP grabbed it. stevenleser May 2014 #56
With all the other photos, why grab that to show the 'murdered' children? blm May 2014 #57
Are you referring to the OP or Telemundo? stevenleser May 2014 #58
