In my 8 years of reporting in DC — oftentimes about the military and “don’t ask, don’t tell” and trans service — the one thing clear to me throughout is how seriously the leadership of the military takes implementing such changes once the decision is made.

The clearest example was the Marines and DADT. The Marines, up through the leadership, were the least supportive of repealing DADT. Once it was repealed, though, they *aggressively* worked to implement repeal the best.

In short, not only is this tweet appalling, it also shows a complete lack of understanding about how the military approaches such things. (And is part of why Trump’s had such a tough time reversing Obama on this; the decision was made and they were moving on.)

She appears to be a paid troll or something. 722 followers and rarely has a single like. She mass tags people and annouces ridiculous things like it's a news story.

I can't like this tweet. Utterly despicable and nauseating.

Whoever
@AZroadunner is, she appears to dedicate a lot of her day to desperately tweeting at the same group of people hoping to get noticed. Seems maybe she’s not the brightest crayon in the box.pic.twitter.com/kNgE9ICLHc

Did I hurt the Tranny's feelings? Put your safety pin on and go quickly and quietly to your safe space. Maybe someone will make you cocoa and marshmallows.

“Liberals are a comedy show. LOVE making fun of their craziness!” I don’t know,
@AZroadunner. Your comedy game is pretty tight. I mean look at you: “Friendly Fire”...”cocoa and marshmallows”. Super hilarious, for sure.

Makes you realize how many anti-transgender learning impaired people there are in the world. I hope they get help for their mental disability.

If someone threatens you in uniform, creates a hostile work atmosphere write them up. Report them. You can also report to base security

This is so sad, thank you for posting. It goes to what we have been seeing increase over last few months.

It's doubtful. You don't want to be in Military Jail. Years ago the military was much more accepting of LGBT members even before DADT ended
