cbs5.com - Pentagon Confirms It Sought To Build A 'Gay Bomb'

(CBS 5) BERKELEY A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."

Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project, had used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.

"The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soliders to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviwing the documents.

"The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay," explained Hammond.

The Pentagon told CBS 5 that the proposal was made by the Air Force in 1994.

"The Department of Defense is committed to identifying, researching and developing non-lethal weapons that will support our men and women in uniform," said a DOD spokesperson, who indicated that the "gay bomb" idea was quickly dismissed.

However, Hammond said the government records he obtained suggest the military gave the plan much stronger consideration than it has acknowledged.

"The truth of the matter is it would have never come to my attention if it was dismissed at the time it was proposed," he said. "In fact, the Pentagon has used it repeatedly and subsequently in an effort to promote non-lethal weapons, and in fact they submitted it to the highest scientific review body in the country for them to consider."

Military officials insisted Friday to CBS 5 that they are not currently working on any such idea and that the past plan was abandoned.

Gay community leaders in California said Friday that they found the notion of a "gay bomb" both offensive and almost laughable at the same time.

"Throughout history we have had so many brave men and women who are gay and lesbian serving the military with distinction," said Geoff Kors of Equality California. "So, it's just offensive that they think by turning people gay that the other military would be incapable of doing their job. And its absurd because there's so much medical data that shows that sexual orientation is immutable and cannot be changed."

theres no such aphrodisiac or hormone that makes you gay. that is stupid.

Talk about a "global destroyer." If everyone chose the same sex, our species would gradually come to an end! It would be the first free-willed genocide.

That's worthy of a southpark episode with the ATF - i can see it all going wrong and blowing back in their faces like the mustard gas LOL.

why does that make me laugh? LOL.

I know this must be taken as a joke and I have nothing against homosexuals as long as they don't try to apporach me but that's the last straw. That's even worse than trying to approach me, that's like force. How the fuck does some one even have the fucking balls [no pun intended] to say "we're gonna make a gay bomb" ? Basically saying we're gonna make you gay rather you like it or not. It even said gays laughed at the idea and finds it offensive. Who ever is the originator of this idea needs to have his head fitted in a slip knot and tied extra tight and I hope he pisses blood and shit stomach acid when he kills over on that rope. If they are serious about this, that shit better not affect me in any kind of way.

When I heard about that this morning on the radio, all I could think of was Electric 6's "Gay Bar". :-P

Yeah I seen that video in school. That was a strange fuckin video man I never thought it could kill some one.

First of all, who/what is "CBS5"? I'd like to know if my source is credible.


anywhoo, I don't buy it when people purport that you can't change sexual orientation. I know that's the politically correct answer, but lets face it, EVERYTHING that drives you is just chemicals. Both homosexual men and women have a hypothalamus that's half the size of a strait man's. I'm pretty sure that gay men have heightened estrogen levels, and even if not it still stands that estrogen and testosterone, as well as dopamine and seratonin production in the right areas of the brain, all determine who you're sexually atracted to. Or did you think it's a mystical "strait/gay" energy implanted in your brain by god?

i dunno who cbs5 is, this was posted on another of my forums (which technically i'd trust that forum before thi sone for correct info... those guys are pricks and love to point out any 'flaw' anything that's said... it's not a cannabis board so there are alot of non-peaceful know it alls...)

even so, it wouldn't/doesn't suprise me that this is/or if it weren't true... wouldn't be the first radical thing the govt. tried to do o.0



err.. ok it just appears it's a CBS company, where it originates, is probably CBS channel 5, just like our local fox station is FOX26

CBS 5 is definately credible
they are one of the biggest news stations here in the bay area

It is still better than nerve gas..

OMG all i can think about is a group of terrorists planting an IED then they start to bump uglies

why dont they just load a bomb up with downers so they can just run in and take the enemy as pow's? it seems a bit more realistic..seeing as theres no such chemical that will change your sexual orientation.

:wtf:...although it probably wouldn't work on the French. :s2:

Thanks,,,now I know what happen to the food network...

hahahahaha thats hilarious man

wasn't that funny

Just a moot point, I'd rather have an enemy soldier shoot me or bomb me, if the other alternative was to stick his stonker up my starfish, just something to ponder on.

Cheers

bump uglys? That saying is so unappealing.

a great non-lethal bomb would be one that explodes and sends fat joints flying in every direction. noone would want to fight :jointsmile:

That would be one fight in which it would be very important not get captured by the enemy
