“Answer a question for me, if a gay person goes to battle for this country and dies in the process, is his sacrifice less than a heterosexuals?”

Of course not..that is never been an issue except maybe to people who like you that are clueless. Gays already serve, honorably. DADT means they do not sit around and discuss buggery and how they buggered their boyfriend last night! Much like I do not discuss what my position from the Kama sutra my wife and I prefer.

We discharge senior enlisted and force Officers to resign for having sex with Juniors. That is forbidding under the UCMJ, as is sex in the barracks (generally by local orders) and sodomy and theft and polygamy and...need I say more. These laws are there for good order and discipline in the military. Military members live under laws far more restrictive than civilians, we all give up some rights in order to serve. Gays included. DADT allowed those gays willing to serve under the UCMJ the ability to serve.

Service in the military is NOT a right. Fat people cannot serve, people treated with mood altering drugs for any disorder may not be allowed to serve. Handicapped people cannot join nor can felons or know gang members.

NOBODY is kicked out for being gay, they are kicked out for perform gay acts or admitting to them in violation of the UCMJ. If gay acts are performed in the privacy of their own home or a motel it is rarely reported and is generally of no concern. On base or post that is a different subject. You really must stop lecturing someone who has served has gone to war and has seen over 30 years of social experiments in the military not all good. DADT limited the number of homosexuals to only those willing to remain circumspect and follow the rules.

Well stated and completely true.

Having served 6 years in the silent service I can only see problems with this. It is bad enough that these idiots push for women on submarines expecting no problems. I see many problems coming not including those unintended that these clueless social engineers without any perspective could never imagine. It is always the same with these elite types who 'feel' they know better how to dig the ditch than those who actually are in the trenches breaking their backs doing the work...
