This is too funny not to mention here

(Thanks, Scot, for pointing this out.)

Apparently, it has come to light that the U.S. military tried to make a "gay bomb" that would use some kind of chemical/pheromone compound to make enemy soldiers irresistibly attracted to each other. The idea being that they'd become ineffective because they'd make love, not war. Apparently some people are offended by this notion. I think they're making a bigger deal than needs to be made, though. If I understand correctly, the idea was not to find some magic gas that will fundamentally change people's sexual orientation; rather they were trying to find an aphrodisiac that would make the soldiers so horny that they'd have sex with whoever happens to be present. Which, sure, raises some ethical questions, but it beats the hell out of killing them.
