The Obama queers miscalculated. They tried to force acceptance
of themselves on real men via "policy", and it failed because of natural
heterosexual tendencies anyway.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Marine Corps is investigating allegations an
unspecified number of military personnel and veterans allegedly shared
nude photos of female colleagues as part of a perverse social media
network that promotes sexual violence.

The allegations were first reported by The War Horse and published
Saturday via Reveal, part of the Center for Investigative Reporting.
Potentially hundreds of Marines may be caught up in the scandal, which has
shaken top Pentagon officials and prompted death threats against the
Marine veteran who disclosed it. An undetermined number of nude photos
were distributed online by way of a Facebook group titled Marines United,
according to the report. The community has nearly 30,000 members, mostly
comprising active-duty U.S. Marines, Marine Corps veterans and British
Royal Marines.

The unseemly episode, which has played out almost exclusively online, is
deeply embarrassing for the Marine Corps and the Defense Department, proud
institutions that, like many college campuses around the country, have
struggled to curtail widespread problems with sexual assault. At the same
time, it exposes an unsettling rift within a segment of American society
consistently regarded as reputable, honorable and trustworthy.

A Marine Corps spokesman at the Pentagon confirmed that an investigation
is underway, telling Marine Corps Times on Saturday night that military
officials are uncertain how many personnel could be involved. The
spokesman, Maj. Clark Carpenter, referred additional questions to the
Naval Criminal Investigative Service, but that agency's spokesman was not
immediately available.

The Marines' top general, Commandant Robert Neller, declined to comment
specifically about the investigation, but he condemned the behavior that's
been alleged. "The success of every Marine, every team, every unit and
command throughout our Corps is based on mutual trust and respect," Neller
said in a statement provided to Marine Corps Times. "I expect every Marine
to demonstrate the highest integrity and loyalty to fellow Marines at all
times, on duty, off-duty and online."

Senior Marine Corps officials are circulating a 10-page document outlining
the allegations and approved talking points about the service's effort to
investigate them. Marine Corps Times obtained a copy early Sunday.

The news report was authored by Thomas Brennan, an Iraq and Afghanistan
combat veteran and Purple Heart recipient who founded The War Horse in
2016. The nonprofit news site focuses on military affairs and tales of
combat heroism.

After its publication, several members of the Facebook group lashed out at
Brennan, making threats against him and his family. One suggested Brennan
should be waterboarded, a cruel and controversial technique used for a
time by American military and intelligence operatives while interrogating
suspected terrorists. President Obama condemned the practice, while
President Trump has said it should be reinstated — against the advice of
his defense secretary, retired Marine Corps Gen. Jim Mattis.

That some U.S. Marines would suggest another deserves to be tortured or
murdered is perhaps more troubling than the salacious allegations Brennan
exposed in his reporting.

There's a "bounty on pictures of my daughter," Brennan told Marine Corps
Times. "It has been suggested that my wife should be raped as a result of
this, and people are openly suggesting I should be killed. ... Can you
imagine being one of the victims?"

The story was "exhaustively researched," he added, noting that the Defense
Department is conducting an investigation "to ensure the victims receive
justice" and no one else falls prey.

"As a Marine veteran," Brennan said, "I stand by the the code: honor,
courage and commitment. This story was published with the intention of
standing up for what is right and staying true to the leadership principle
of looking out for Marines and their families."

His report includes a number of disturbing allegations. It suggests some
women were stalked while others may have taken the compromising photos
themselves, intending them to be private, only to be betrayed by whoever
shared them with the Facebook group. Most troubling is the claim that
members of Marines United proudly advocated for one woman to be sexually
assaulted, an unidentified female Marine who was secretly photographed,
according to the report.

The Marine Corps — perhaps more than the other military services — has
grappled with social media malfeasance for years, both within the ranks
and among its veteran population. Members of Congress, including Rep.
Jackie Speier of California, have been after senior leaders to get tougher
on confronting cyber bullies. That makes these new revelations all the
more discouraging.

At its most disgraceful, the online bullying targets racial and religious
minorities, those who are overweight, homosexuals, transgender people and
women, whom social media trolls readily condemn as inferior to men and
unworthy of the service's coveted Eagle, Globe and Anchor device intended
to be a symbol uniting all Marines.

Former President Barack Obama's order to open ground combat specialties to
women, an edict several Marine Corps generals have publicly opposed, seems
to have fueled the offensive discourse online. Army leaders, by contrast,
have welcomed the change, raising questions as to whether the Marines'
institutional resistance to gender integration within its principal war-
fighting units has unwittingly exacerbated the struggle with reducing
deviant behavior.

Marine Corps officials are encouraging victims to report suspected crimes
via NCIS, which has several means to contact law enforcement anonymously.

"The Marine Corps is deeply concerned," Capt. Ryan E. Alvis, a Marine
Corps spokeswoman, told Marine Corps Times. "... This behavior destroys
morale, erodes trust, and degrades the individual." Alvis indicated the
allegations, if proven true, would violate the military's Uniform Code of
Military Justice and could result in criminal charges. The Marine Corps,
she added, has various resources available to those who believe they were
targeted.

"In addition to the chain of command, resources include, but are not
limited to: Military One Source, Inspector General hotlines and military
chaplains," Alvis said. "Individuals can also report the incident to local
authorities. Efforts are underway to notify commanders and other resource
providers."

The top enlisted Marine, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps Ronald Green,
said there is no place for "this type of demeaning or degrading behavior."
He issued an emotional written statement encouraging Marines to come
forward and expose the wrongdoers. It's their responsibility, he said.

"Stand up, speak out and be a voice of change for the better," Green said.
"Hold those who misstep accountable. We need to realize that silence is
consent — do not be silent. It is your duty to protect one another, not
just for the Marine Corps but for humanity. ... I need you with me on
this."

"Ultimately," he added, "we must take a look in the mirror and decide
whether we are part of the problem or the solution."

Oh, Jesus fucking Christ on a crutch. Stop making it out to seem like that
bullshit is the norm on that page. The very few Marines who did threaten
murder and rape were dealt with in house. And I couldn't help but notice
how you didn't include in this article how MU has been instrumental in
keeping an uncountable number of veterans from committing suicide. You're
painting MU to be some mysoginist and racist page when that couldn't be
further from the truth.

Yes, but journalists don't care.... they need the power rush from
exploiting people's emotions. They certainly don't care about justice or
anything like it. It's a ratings and readship issue for the authors. Plus
these stary eyed people think the barista at the local coffee shop can do
what Marines are asked to do for this country. Could either one of these
writers fight face to face with a knife and kill for their country when
asked to? No, they relegate that to their military and then rather than
treat the military with respect and wait for it to allow justice to be met
under military rules, they make a scandal .... for their own
gratification, not for justice.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party has run out of gas.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for ending the disaster of the
Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.

“&” is an infamous and anonymous internet troll. He launches
scurrilous, defamatory, trivializing and false diatribes against
Men’s Rights activists and their posts and against Men’s Rights
organizations. He therefore, has as his goals the disruption of
soc.men and the thwarting of the legitimate goals of the men’s
rights movement, and the denigration, trivialization and discrediting
of the leaders of the men’s rights movement and men’s rights
organizations.

:) Not by the real Turin an' not who Turin is. The people using this
tactic are a gang of cyber criminals, here's a borrowed quote wrt to
some of their other activities:


"...a gang of online thieves who do specialize in identity theft and
forgeries among other cyber activities.

The purpose of this post was not trolling or fun or personal vendettas.
It was gang intimidation oriented toward facilitating criminal
activities; which, includes the trading of drugs, pornography and
copyrighted works. This group uses "alt.usenet.kooks" as an operating
base on Usenet. They are well known for stalking and intimidation of a
much more serious nature against targeted individuals.

You are encouraged to report such behavior to federal authorities
whenever it is encountered."
