Someone Asked - They Shouldn't Have Told

This is so hard to believe that I would have thought it the stuff of comic science fiction. As late as 1994, the Pentagon was developing a weapon designed to turn the other side gay. I shit you not:

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 soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another,' Hammond said after reviewing the documents.
What's next - a killer joke?
