in a nutshell: the american government spent 7.5 mill on trying to develop the “Gay Bomb,” which will make enemy soldiers more interested in… lets say ‘each other’, than shooting at them. 
They weren’t the first people to think of love as an alternative to war.
What about a love bomb - and drop it on their own side too?
that is unbelievably stupid to quote the article “Throughout history we have had so many brave men and women who are gay and lesbian serving the military with distinction” why would it make a difference and (if they made it) how would they control the chemicals spreading if they fired into the wind it would effect there own soldiers not the enemy. what will they think of next 
Imagine how awkward veterans reuniouns would get.
I think the primary action of this weapon was to make the enemy soldiers irresistably attractive to one another. Since most of them are probably men, the only way to do this would be to make them somehow “gay” (not truly gay, but gay whilst exposed to the chemicals, I guess).
I guess in this case the proposal looks like the original plan wasn’t “Gay people won’t be able to fight”, but rather “If they’re too interested in their attraction for each other, they won’t be able to fight”. I guess if the military were 50:50 men and women then a “straight bomb” would have worked just as well…
This is not to say that some elements of the military weren’t being homophobic. But I can see how the concept mightn’t be homophobic in itself… It’s still a pretty dubious concept on many levels, though!
The Gay Bomb is real!
and the majority of parents dread it.
You’re not supposed to be so rational in your analysis of this. You’re supposed to react the way the gay community activists do. Quoting the article:
You may find yourself attending some re-education if you continue thinking rationally like you are. 
Of course something like the “gay bomb” isn’t going to permanently change someones sexual orientation. But changing sexual interests temporarily could be worth investigating. We use chemical agents on insects and animals that affect their behavior without killing them. Why not pursue the same ideas on humans?
We need to get creative in researching and developing nonlethal ways of handling people. Both militarily and for the police. Current nonlethal ways of getting someone out of a house who it barricaded in and holding hostages is not always effective or nonlethal. Current methods of dealing with crowds and riots are not always nonlethal. We need alternatives and that is going to require some open and creative thinking.
does anyone remember ‘The Nude Bomb’?
I think i may just have missed it.
I dont think something such as ‘the nude bomb’ would be all that easy to forget.
Haha, T’was a movie starring Don Adams, reprising his “Get Smart” character/role of Maxwell Smart, agent 86!
That’s those bead necklaces that are handed out on spring break. The video footage shows that it works quite well.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Christianson,
We regret to inform you that your son was involved in an extremely friendly, friendly fire incident. He is OK, we are all OK. In fact as unit commander I am proud to inform you he looks absolutely fabulous, particularly in the white suit with the black leather shoes…
In addition to a variety of tactical uses, the gay bomb would be a potent long term strategic weapon. For example, instead of invading Iraq, we could have secretly disbursed the chemical to a large portion of the populace. Repeatedly doing so would of course cause the birth rate to fall below replacement, and in 50 years there would be very few Iraqis left.

…k…
I don’t think genocide is the best idea
but, ya know… that’s just me…
Better that they die of old age in their beds than be blown up or shot. Nobody would suffer, people would just stop having children.
but we’re not trying to wipe them out.
i’m not sure why were there…
but i think its mainly neutralizing hostiles and trying to restore order (that aint gunna happen)
but out goal is definatley not to kill off the cilvillians, thats just not right…
and they will all be beaten for being gay… although i do not know who is going to administer the beating.
MuniAddict, i have put that on my: things to hire out once i find that 40yold virgin DVD and p[ay my huge fine list.
Damn i missed some good things being born when i was.
I’m not advocating killing anyone.
mmmm… fair nuff
