President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he won’t allow transgender troops to serve in the military in any capacity. Celebrities and social justice warriors were quick to give their opinion.
But Wounded Warrior J.R. Salzman fired back at the wannabe “experts.”
George Takei doesn’t know better?
Salzman was injured in Iraq in 2006 when a vehicle he was travelling in was hit with a explosively formed penetrator.
He lost his right arm, below his elbow and his left hand was pulverized.
And suddenly thousands of people who never served a day in the military will become experts. https://t.co/0NwuCPOdqU

Wanna go through life confused about whether you’re a man or a woman? Go for it. But you don’t get to be a distraction in the military.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
There’s no such thing as an army of one. You stow that individuality BS and become part of the team. You’re either uniform or you’re wrong.

The same people who think a “woman” with a penis should be allowed in group showers are saying Trumps move degrades the military.

Want to see a lot of pissed off soldiers? Tell 150 men they have to share two porta-johns at air assault school while 5 women get their own
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
My air assault school. We were told men and women are equal, except when we’re not. Now give a special one to the “woman” with the penis.

I served in Iraq in 2006. For the first five months I was on a 12 man firebase out in the middle of nowhere in the desert.

Everyday was Groundhog Day. Wake up and do the same patrols, the same shifts, every single day. It was so damn hot. 150° in the gun trucks.

Tracer fire would go overhead occasionally at night. IED’s on the road were a daily threat. We got resupplied food every 8 days.

QRF was an hour away. After they made the minimum three gun truck rule after the guys got kidnapped, life got harder.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
The stress of being out there and doing the same job every single day eats away at you. The younger guys had problems with that overtime.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
Any tiny little personal issue they had suddenly became a mountain. And that shit came out on that fire base. And they snapped mentally.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
After stepping on each other’s nuts living in the same can for five months, guys were at each other’s throats. The stress made it worse.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
Guys would literally snap over a dear John letter. Their personal issues came out and they were instantly combat ineffective.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
Now take someone confused about whether they are a man/woman. Take those psychological and emotional issues and put them in that environment
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
Take someone who is right off the bat not uniform or part of the same team. Give them special treatment because of their identity.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
Take that person, put them in that stressful war environment and watch what happens. It’s a fucking ticking time bomb.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
You have to be incredibly tough mentally, physically and emotionally. War is not a fucking video game. It tests every ounce of your being.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
You can’t teach someone to be a fearless warrior in a fucking PowerPoint. You either have it or you don’t. You can hack it or you can’t.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
We had guys who couldn’t. When faced with combat situations they crumbled. They had mental and emotional issues. They were a liability.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
To be successful at war, you have to become a warrior mentally, physically, and emotionally. You can’t fake it and go through the motions.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
In war if it comes down to kill or be killed, and you hesitate, you’re dead. It’s a simple as that. It’s not a fucking video game.
— J.R. Salzman (@jrsalzman) July 26, 2017
War is no place for people who are mentally, emotionally, or physically confused or in turmoil. You have your shit together, or you don’t.

Enough for now. This one armed veteran has a business to run. Unlike Iran, the country that took my arm, Obama didn’t pay me millions.
