Pentagon Confirms It Sought To Build A 'Gay Bomb'

[RiverStone]

No, this is not from The Onion --- sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Put down your weapons and have sex!

CBS 5) BERKELEY A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."

Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project, had used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

I wonder, if somehow this "weapon" accidentially went off in a major population area, what would happen? If straight people became gay, would gay people become straight? Or would we all just become super horny -- walk away from our jobs --- and go at it in the streets - a giant mass love-in!

:loveya:

Make love - not war!

6. AHAHAHAHA!

:rofl:

That would do him good, wouldn't it?

3. This is too much! Yet this administration seems to argue for the

most part that homosexuality is choice and not genetic! I confess I dont have the answers to this, but I think it largely a combination of both; that is, multifactorial.

A sex bomb! what will they think of next?

[seriousstan]

14. Which administration are you talking about? The study was 1994.

4. Now I can truly say I have heard

it all.

5. Most soldiers I knew were more interested in love than war

They weren't gay, at least none would say so in the middle/late seventies.

The idea that a homosexual soldier is less dangerous than a heterosexual soldier is pretty silly. Do these guys really believe their own propaganda? I thought it was part of the teaching os Leo Strauss that the Golden Race didn't have to believe the bullshit that the rest of are supposed to believe.

7. I saw that movie

Does it bother anyone else that the Pentagon is getting R&D ideas from Maxwell Smart movies???

:crazy:

8. The US Military Must be a Bunch of Wackos

Psychic remote viewers, gay bombs -- they will give money to just about anyone with a half-baked idea.

9. Being a straight guy *clears throat* I AM A STRAIGHT GUY!!!

I laugh when we heteros project onto the gay community.

They just assume that if you are gay and the guy next to you is gay you will just f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck all day long. No worry about survival or your mission or any of that just f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck all day long. No mention here that you can't do that all day every day-no one can- but I guess this is macho Generals and such all just figuring that IF they could they indeed COULD f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck all day long. Clearly there is no accounting for taste or connection or anything as far as they know it is just f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck

Also-as I always say when some idiot starts off on how gays give them the creeps and how they couldn't shower with one even in a gym setting or be around them you know because all they want to do is f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck anything that moves ....I always say this and it tends to shut them up, "Women don't find you attractive what makes you think gay men would?"

[Cabcere]

18. LOL!

"Women don't find you attractive, what makes you think gay men would?" :rofl: :spray: :rofl: Excellent. :thumbsup: I'm going to have to remember that. :D

10. yeah, but the project was abandoned

17. They don't want queers in the service, but they paid for that video?

Don't tell me, the Navy was part of the crowd that didn't notice how FLAMINGLY EXPLOSIVELY FLAMBOYANTLY GAY the village people were?


Jesus, I was only ten when they were big and I could tell - and I didn't even quite get how "gay" worked, but I knew they were gay, so did everyone else my age.

11. I have to wonder wonder what it'd take to make young guys "more interested in sex than fighting."

Oxygen? :eyes:

[Solly Mack]

Can only shake my head

in wonder at the stupidity of it all

12. "Flesh Gordon" is the source of the Military's R&D

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068595/

"Emperor Wang (the Perverted) is leader of the planet Porno and sends his mighty "Sex Ray" towards Earth, turning everyone into sex-mad fiends. Only one man can save the Earth, football player Flesh Gordon. Along with his girlfriend Dale Ardent and Professor Flexi-Jerkoff, they set off towards the source of the Sex Ray, unaware of the perils that face them."

Saw it at a drive-in in Florida in 1977. The next feature was "Barbarella".

13. What if...

They succeeded in doing it. developing a hormone that made people want to be gay. Technically, that would be a chemical or biological weapon. would it be ethical to use it?

16. Why would they have to be interested in sex with each other?

Why not just try to find a love potion so strong it would send them off the battle fields and in search of whatever sort of significant other they are into?
