WATCH: LGBTQ Indoctrination of Military, Chaplaincy in Overdrive but Navy Secretary Slips, Says Homosexuality is a Choice

Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro told an openly gay chaplain that homosexuality is a choice during an online town hall event that took place on Monday.

“Understand that the battles that you face, the challenges that you face every day and trying to make the world a better place, are not easy. They’re defined by your choice to be homosexual, and that we’ve got to work together and have hope and that we will, you know, continue to make progress in time,” Del Toro said in the video. . .

A Navy official who requested anonymity to speak frankly about the encounter told Navy Times that Del Toro meant to say that a person revealing their sexuality and coming out is a choice.

Del Toro echoed that sentiment in a statement to Navy Times in the late afternoon Tuesday.

“I am and always have been an unequivocal supporter of the LGBTQ+ community,” he said. “My comments regarding choice were referring specifically to an individual’s deeply personal decision to share their sexual orientation…As a father and Secretary, my actions, words, and policies have been consistent in treating everyone with dignity and respect.” (Read more from “WATCH: LGBTQ Indoctrination of Military, Chaplaincy in Overdrive but Navy Secretary Slips, Says Homosexuality is a Choice” HERE)
