Family Research Council fellow: Allowing women in combat is 'tragic' and 'immoral'

[ck4829]

On her radio show this week, Janet Parshall spoke with Robert L. Maginnis, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and the current senior fellow for national security at the Family Research Council, about the Pentagon’s recent decision to lift the ban on women serving in combat units.

Maginnis, who recently wrote a book on the topic, said that allowing women into combat goes against science. He called the situation “tragic,” “unnecessary,” “immoral,” and “un-American.”

Maginnis: I’m concerned about the direction of my country. I see this as a tragic mistake that’s going to weaken our fighting forces, compromise the battle proven standards that we’ve shed a lot of blood over the last couple centuries for. And also it’s unnecessary risk for the people that ultimately are pushed into this environment. And finally I think it’s immoral and I think it’s un-American what these people want to do.

Parshall, for her part, blamed the decision on the “radical feminist movement,” claiming the policy change would not only “push women” into a situation that they don’t want to be in, it flies in the face of God and what is “natural.”

Oh no guys, war is now tragic and immoral, thanks to women in combat, and will we ever go back to it being natural? Can we go back to the time when MEN fired chemical and biological weapons at each other? You know, natural.

1. Now get back into the fucking kitchen!

Laundry room, bedroom, etc.
Enough said?

Oh, just in case...

2. Too bad, so sad. I consider

the very existence of the "Family" Research Council to be "tragic and immoral." Along with a host of other adjectives that would turn this site a very deep shade of midnight blue.
