If you have 'flat feet' you aren't accepted into military. Many Things keep you out. My dad had a heart attack & couldn't serve in WW2, a friend had TB as a child couldn't serve. NO SHAME in that, just a FACT of LIFE. GET OVER IT BOYS! Precedent is set! YOU'LL LOSE!

HIV infected soldiers could be used a biological weapons which is strictly against UN guidelines.

They should be discharged. It's about social utility at that point.

Or it could be considered reckless endamgerment giving the violent nature of theyre jobs. If they get hurt and they infect someone on a battlefield that could be considered premeditated because hiv could potentially be a death sentence.

Rules we don't follow no stinking rules, that's just for other to do.....

I’m sorry but this is not Unconstitutional, it’s because these 2 Servuce members are sick, my nephew had Leukemia and he was Honorably Discharged for having it.

Here is a question. let's say you need blood from gun shot wound, you are about to die, Maybe, you think you might die, but the ONLY blood you can get is from the person with AIDS! would you take it or hope you LIVE?

This reminds me of 20 years ago when some idiots were afraid to touch someone who had HIV. Sadly, with the Trump administration nothing shocks me anymore.

What? I seen them drain a swimming pool because of blood, Med people ware mask and gloves because of blood, PEOPLE are trying to make you bleed with bullets, if your next to me with AIDS and your bleeding. Say Good-by my friend also Snake bite, there will be NO Sucking the Blood

Yes they can be discharged.

Don't waste my time. Get rid of them. They were discharged because they are not the people we need to protect our country.

Yeah let's have a bleeding HIV patient laying on the battlefield for everybody to get it

Government shutdown negotiations appear frozen in placeCNN News, delivered. Select from our newsletters below and enter your email to subscribe. 72,000 Dead Americans in 2017 according to the CDC...the drugs don't care what color you are. We are currently paying billions daily for food, court costs, housing, schooling, not to mention the real cost of women and children dying, being trafficked, or being abused during the journey. In my eyes 5.7B is a very small price to pay, DEMS really need to start negotiating It's amazing how America's still running... Guess it sometimes takes a lil' detox to realize/convince yourself that you are able to live without certain things that you never thought you could... Hmm. (We should really look into the parts of the gov that literally aren't open)
