Biden is pussy-a-fying the military

changing genes is wildy unpredictable. we don't know a tenth of what the human genes do, let alone know some functions of the human body.

i read a short story years ago about the dangers of gene alterations. don't remember who wrote it, i've forgotten some details of the story. in this particular future, the population of earth was wiped out by a gene virus that got out of control. People were altering themselves in different ways, remains were found with tails, others with wings, etc... I think it was some explorers who found a monument erected by the survivors.

As long as they can pass the same fitness requirements as the men, and acknowledge they're gonna get raped if taken prisoner, then by all means, have a go

The problem was/is that they generally can not, so standards are lowered for everyone. If there’s anywhere that needs to be a pure meritocracy it’s the military. The left will do whatever they can to oppose that, which does nothing but make the country and our interests less secure.

My brother hadn't shot a rifle in decades. He picked up my AR15 and shot a inner bull at 50 yards on the first shot. Granted, the rifle was scoped it and he was seated.

Women can't pass the men's standards. They've hand picked women to try and last I saw they all failed. It's easy to shoot a rifle accurately. It's harder to tote it 10 miles and shoot it when others are shooting back. Has any woman passed sniper school?

Why even have "a maternity flight suit?" If you're flying Eagles off an aircraft carrier 7 mos preggers, you've got a major problem that a flight suit isn't going to fix. Maybe if your flying some type of transport but the risk is definitely increased. Hell, they will ground you even if you have the smallest amount of ***forbidden subject*** in your system.

OK, Tomcats, not Eagles.

Your politifact article is hazy at best. Other than "the initiative" started under the Trump administration, it says little.

It use to be before CRISPR, now the ability to change genes is only limited by medical ethics.

CRISPR technology

is a simple yet powerful tool for editing genomes. It allows researchers to easily alter DNA sequences and modify gene function. Its many potential applications include correcting genetic defects, treating and preventing the spread of diseases and improving crops.

Asimov, or Heinlein?

That is what you Bidenphiles voted for.
But hey maybe we will get that cancer cure
