Okay, boys and girls, it's time for yet another griping session about equal rights or whatever...
St. Louis' Fox affiliate, on their Facebook page, claims a recent report says women should be allowed on the front lines of military combat. They then proceeded to ask if this is a good idea.
My initial reaction: since when are women not allowed to serve on the front lines? I may not know everything about military protocol, but I'd think all soldiers are given equal opportunities. But, I forgot, this is 2011. Americans still don't have much of a grasp on the concept of equality.
I have a question: how are women unfit to be on front lines? Don't they go through training just like the male soldiers? If a soldier can't pass training, they don't go. It's that simple. Gender is irrelevant. Why are we still discussing what rights women should have?
