We're a bit hesitant to post this directly after that video, but we've got to tell you that Air Force Captain Devery L. Taylor has been sentenced to 50 years in jail after being found guilty of raping four men and attempting to rape two others.

In honor of his conviction, Taylor released a written statement:

I want you to know how much I have loved being a part of the Air Force and serving this country. It has been difficult for me to be a part of the military and be who I am, which is a homosexual.
Taylor also said that he originally lied to prosecutors because he feared being caught in a "gay round-up".

I was raped while in service in 1970...no one even cared then-as a matter of fact I was told to get used to it by the investigator that interviewed me the morning after it happened...I was in a detention barracks-I had just gotten there 12 hours earlier and in that time I was beaten and assaulted. Also-I had done NOTHING wrong,and two months later I recieved an HONORABLE DISCHARGE.
Whats 'fair' mean?
