Neo-Nazi? Sure! Completely unable to understand the implications of military service? Come on down!
Into community theatre? Get thee back, Satan!
Okay, I'm making this up. Well, not really -- just the part where I imply that it was the community theatre participation behind the army's dismissal of this decorated sargeant and -- argh, the stupidity, it burns -- Arabic language specialist. No, it wasn't that.
He was -- gasp -- gay.
I'll pause for a moment while you fetch your smelling salts.
Here's the part that would be funny if it wasn't part of this enormous pile of stinking ratfuckery:
On Dec. 2, investigators formally interviewed Copas and asked if he understood the military's policy on homosexuals, if he had any close acquaintances who were gay, and if he was involved in community theater. He answered affirmatively.Well, we can't have that. And you know, he was just an Arabic linguist -- not like he was proficient in a language that might come in handy or anything.
But here's what I want to know. It's been almost ten years since I've acted in community theatre. Am I still gay?
