Let me first state that I am in the military. Air Force to be exact. I've been in for four years.
Second @ Gamahiro. xd shush. you should not say such things. lol. telling where secret bases are. xd
now back to the matter at hand.
Sigh. I see that some of you lack the full understanding of the concept of Don't ask dont tell. It is a policy set in place so that gays, while serving their country, cannot participate in any gay activity (be it *** or parades or what have you) openly. To do so means you will be kicked out as have hundreds and thousands of people that have already.
Is this right? I say no. It is wrong, and as DOD posted earlier, Unconstitutional. However, as Gamahiro posted, The Patriot Act is a counter balance to that system that overrides it.
I shall also add this. Gays know of the policy before they enter. If they had a problem with it, they should not have entered. As they entered, then they obviously have to abide by the laws set or face the consequences.
They take the chance knowing the law as it is. They choose to obey or not to obey. They choose to reveil their sexuality to others or not. They run the risk of getting kicked out.
A person's sexuality and what they do in their bedroom however, runs no bearing as to how well they would perform their job, or defends their country.
Question for all you people that are for the dont ask dont tell staying in place. Will you step up and serve your country? I don't see you doing it.
Also if you had a big brolic Terry Crews looking gay dude behind you with a gun and you are serving in Iraq/Afghanistan, would you be more concerned with him, or the Iraqi people that have bombs strapped to their chests, that just finished setting up roadside bombs that will kill you and Terry Crews, and wont hesitate to blow you AND themselves up at a signal?
Im looking at Terry to help me get out of this mess, not to wonder if he was staring at my @ss.
Better yet. If he was to get my ass out of that mess, I would be the first to sign his wedding book album. First to do a video. Shit I'll be his best man if he let me.

Hey, speaking of shit-filled sewers..... did Feed The Children give you the .76 cents that I donated? I wasn't sure, because I was supposed to get a photo and hand-written letter from you. :|

Did you not read from the beginning before you posted that? sigh
State if you believe the Don't ask, don't tell Military policy should stay in place or be taken away. Then give a reason as to why.

Speaking as someone who has fell victim to this policy, I say it is time for it to be repealed.As previously stated we know the risk going in , but how ever this policy is nothing more then a witch hunt. I never once revealed to anyone my sexual orientation , but was outed by my then partner. Now official policy states that any soldier may not be questioned about there orientation , and if the commanding officer suspects he does not have to power to pursue and or harass the soldier. This is usually not the case though. Even if this policy can not be repealed then I recommend a revise of don't ask don't tell don't pursue don't harass. Maybe something along the lines of in order to be discharged the soldier has to confront there commanding officer and directly inform them of there orientation and can not be outed by any third party. Personally I would love to see this repealed , but if not I would be happy to see a compromise. Further more I served as a Calvary Scout and was damn good at my M.O.S. I believe my Drill Sergeant said it best you do not have to be straight to serve in the military you , you just have to be able to shoot straight.
