You think like a traitor and you probably would have ended up in a military prison. These women are enemy combatants--period.
I was unsuitable because of a lifetime of bullying prior to going in. So basically you are a sexist, in saying men are not allowed to show vulnerability? I was not mentally fit, but that has nothing to do with being a traitor.
Your attitude is why, even for those who do make it past basic, come back with PTSD and commit suicide or worse kill their spouse or others.
So your attitude is that girls are weak and men have to be Rambo?
So you have a problem with me admitting someone like Tammy Duckworth could do job she was mentally fit to do, and handled it, is less of a woman because I couldn't do the same thing? Was she playing the female card when she had her legs blown off?
Again, GENDER HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ABILITY.
I am not ashamed of not being able to serve. Anymore than any female or male should be ashamed of any mental illness.
Anyone who goes off to join ISIS is an enemy combatant, regardless of gender. You don't get to come back with lame stories about having been brainwashed.
