Lt. Col. Christopher Downey is trying to overturn his conviction for violating the regulation that ended the ban on gays openly serving in the military. In 2012, he tried to stop lesbian officers from 'prolonged French kissing' at a military ball.

Isn't this a PDA issue and not a LGBT issue?

I've seen the same correction made with heterosexual couples getting too intimate at military functions. Its a matter of appropriate behavior and has ZERO to do with sexual orientation.

We talked about this at work today. It shouldn't have mattered who the couple were - gay, straight, etc. - it was an inappropriate PDA, and the LTC was right to correct it. He probably could have corrected it with a little more finesse, but still.

This is politics, plain and simple.

This PC crap has got to stop! Its getting ridiculous to the point where the only thing offensive anymore is being white, male, successful, or having any manner of authority. This is how you undermine a society and allow to to crumble down to nothing, you turn everyone against those with authority, success, or are in a majority of some kind until every minority feels entitled.

This LTC did entirely the right thing by regulations and it had nothing to do with the sexual orientation of the soldiers.

I also have to say that I have not seen a poll on here that seems to be 100% in any one direction.
