Delegate: No Gays in National Guard
By Advocate.com Editors
The U.S. Senate voted to repeal “don’t ask, don’t tell” over the weekend
, but a Virginia delegate wants the ban against gays and lesbians serving
openly to stay in place for his state’s National Guard.
According to the Free-Lance Star, Del. Rob Marshall of Prince William County
, who may be interested in the seat of U.S. Senator Jim Webb, plans to
introduce legislation in the 2011 General Assembly that would make the
discriminatory policy the rule in the Virginia National Guard.
”In a written statement, Marshall, a conservative Republican who was the
sponsor of the bill that banned gay marriage in Virginia, said allowing
openly gay people to serve in the military ‘will weaken military
recruitment and retention, and will increase pressure for a military draft.
“‘After 232 years of prohibiting active, open homosexuals from enlisting
in our military, President Obama and a majority in Congress are conducting a
social experiment with our troops and our national security," he said.
A spokesman for Governor Bob McDonnell said he disagreed with the proposal
from Marshall because the governor believes that Virginia should adhere to
the new standard set by federal law.
But Marshall argues that Virginia may set policies for its own National
Guard, regardless of the federal law. | g********d 发帖数: 4174 | 2 反扑开始了,可惜这件事扑腾的空间不大,这些人吐啊吐,很快就会把吐的再吃回去的
