DADT Done

Lifting Don't Ask Don't Tell (DADT) from the military should be simple. What could be easier than saying stop kicking people out for being gay? You could do it with a text message.

Many, if not most of the homosexual people I know (at least those over 30 years old) have served in the United States Armed Forces without incident. Several of those friends are in their 80s. Gays have always been in the military. Trust me, there will not be a big "coming out" event when the policy is lifted. It will be business as usual - except people won't have to lie if they happen to get discovered.

Gay people join the military to serve their country - Period. Just like everyone else.

Gitter done!
