Jeez. I just saw this subforum.

Y'all may not know it but I'm retired Air Force having been raised a Brat and lived and served all over.

Now I'm living off the gubmint tit (ugh) with 100% VA disability. I also counsel and assist vets (especially homeless) in getting SS and/or VA disability benefits. Obviously I'm a huge advocate of veteran's rights (and gay rights but y'all already know that :)).

Thanks for helping fellow vets. I was on active duty for 13 years and ended up retiring out of the Naval Reserve. In about 18 months I'll collect my first retirement check along with TriCare. Kegger at my place. Woot!

How is it a 14th amendment issue? What the $#@!? We have rights that we are born with. The Amendments are just prohibitions on government.

Agreed. That's not the problem. The problem is our government passing laws that give special rights to some and denying those special rights to others.

One example would be Affirmative Action. Another would be the 1138 Federal rights and benefits granted to married couples.

Not all veterans qualify for all or any of the plans. Most chronically homeless, be they veterans or not, are mentally ill. Unless a person is a danger to themselves or others, it's not illegal to be mentally ill. Therefore many homeless vets won't even apply. It's like Catch 22.



There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orr_(Catch-22)) was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he were sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to.

I'd like to remind the forum feminists who continue to fall over themselves in praise of this guy that if he is indeed retired career air force - meaning he spent at least 20 years in there, he had to follow the code of conduct in order to last that long including while he was on duty and on base and while wearing the uniform of the United States anywhere else in public.

Although I myself have serious reservations about his claims, it's important to realize that if indeed he is retired military and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt to make my point, that while he served, he was a soldier - or whatever they call them in the air force, and not a homo sexual activist.

That's how he managed to arrive at his pension and for no other reason.

I too am a vet though of but 2 years active as a draftee. Clearly I was not interested in some low paid job as a career.

We thank guys like me and the rest of the Vets but don't thank Congress, our mayor, etc. They served too.

When we are told we served, we were full time robots for the military.

I told Sgt. Dodd, then the first Sgt. of my unit we were denied freedoms enjoyed by the rest of Americans.

How far do you want the Fed to go into the personal lives of American citizens?

Do you really think that if a brother and sister was incestuous that not being able to marry would stop them?

Best, IMO, to just pull the Fed out of the marriage business. No special rights and privileges for married couples therefore no Constitutional conflict. Does this sound good to you Bob? If not, why not?

I say again, homos want this for FED benefits. State benefits really are not why they want marriage.

So, stop having the FEDS promote marriage of any form.

The constitution does not give married unique benefits. Tax regulation is where that comes from.

I am speaking of the fed only as to benefits.
