I guess former Marine and now-Congressman Duncan Hunter has had enough of Navy Secretary Ray Mabus and his blind headlong plunge into social justice warrior mode calling Mabus “a greater threat to the Marine Corps than ISIS”. Mabus has been altering the culture of the Marine Corps which has been winning our country’s wars for hundreds of years just so Mabus can have a SJW legacy to point to on his Wikipedia page. According to Politico<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Particularly, he’s taking exception to memo Mabus sent to the Marines Corps this week, instructing it integrate Marine boot camp, which has been separate for men and women, and change job titles so they\u2019re gender neutral.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are long lasting,\u201d Hunter told POLITICO. \u201cThese changes that they\u2019re making are not thought out, they\u2019re not researched, they\u2019ve not been debated. The American public has no idea what\u2019s going on \u2026 It\u2019s going to get people killed.\u201d<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Mabus declined to comment on Hunter\u2019s remarks.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You might remember that the Marine Corps was the only service to try out segregated units and Mabus, the surface warfare officer whose only experience in the service was on a ship that spent most of his time aboard in the Boston shipyard going through repairs, dismissed the Marine Corps’ report on the experiment out-of-hand and presented no real reason to dispute their efforts other than the fact that it didn’t fit his view of the controversy.<\/p>\n

In Hunter’s opinion piece on Fox News<\/a>, Hunter warns against changing the time-tested combat-oriented standards;<\/p>\n

What cannot happen \u2014 as many are rightly concerned will \u2014 is that the services will be forced to lower various specialty standards, in order to remain \u201cgender neutral.\u201d That is something the services must resist at all cost\u2014as Congress should too. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s imperative that each job maintains the highest standards and continue developing the highest quality personnel, regardless of gender, quotas or any other benchmark.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

The White House evidently picks and chooses who it listens to when it comes it comes to the military. <\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

{T]he Marine Corps and the special operations community…are among our fiercest fighters and it\u2019s foolish not to take their concerns seriously.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, obviously, Congressman Hunter isn’t taking into account that he’s talking to a bean counter with virtually no experience in being a leader of folks in uniform. Like Ashton Carter, Chuck Hagel and Leon Panetta, Mabus was hired because he’s a good little minion social justice warrior.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
