Military Homosexuals Denigrate Army in Rally for Publicity

As framed by a self-described member of the military “LGBT community” (a moniker that technically includes violators of military regs, since the “T” is banned from military service) took to the internet after an affront by Army Public Affairs.  CW2 “Tania D” sent a message to “Have a Gay Day,” asking them to promote a photo that was presumably ‘censored’ due to “discrimination:” 

I need your help. I am trying to get a photo circulated. The photo is of two women kissing goodbye, prior to a deployment to Afghanistan. The Soldier who took the photograph was not allowed to use the picture in her article for the Fort Stewart newspaper, because it shows two women. A year after DADT, LGBT service members, and all of us in the LGBT community are still facing discrimination.  Will you please share this picture on your page? I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your time and consideration.

For what its worth, the story the photo presumably went with seems to have done just fine without it.

Photos are approved, or not, for any of a variety of reasons.  It is possible — even likely — that a Public Affairs Officer wanting to avoid the picture becoming the story (rather than supporting it) would choose another picture.  All you have to do is look back to the rampant publicity over the other two homosexual military pictures published (in the Marines and Navy) — which clearly drew the focus to the pictures, not the story.

It is notable, too, that these accusations of illegal conduct by the Army are being spread through homosexual advocacy organizations, complete with servicemembers’ ranks and service used to support their allegations.  The fact that it isn’t “discrimination” is surely a minor detail. (For what its worth, the picture was “shared” by military atheists, some of whom have a similar habit of denigrating the military in while shilling for publicity.)

Public reaction?  Noted.
