I’m really terribly offended by this story:
Not by the fact he was unfairly treated, you see. That’s just life. I’m offended by the fact that the headline could have used a much more inflammatory double-entendre for shock value. A few samples:
AF Gives Decorated Pilot the Shaft
AF F*cks Decorated Pilot
AF Tosses Decorated Pilot
AF Blows Off Decorated Pilot
AF Sucks: Decorated Pilot
Decorated Gay Pilot Forced to Pull Out
Decorated Gay Pilot Forcibly Removed from Cockpit
I have to take a sec and say I kind of feel like an asshole for making these jokes; I might even be contradicting the Don’t Be a Dick rule I just visited upon the world. This guy’s been in the Air Force for 18 years, and for that I salute him. I’m sure he’s a great guy.
For this comment however:
"I wanted a quick, quiet, fair, honorable discharge."
I LOLed.
