Overturning “Don’t ask; Don’t Tell”
Why is a person’s sexual orientation so important to the military? Why does it even matter? It doesn’t. The controversy in overturning this ridiculous law/policy is absurd. It’s common sense that it’s none of the military’s business if a person is gay or lesbian. The truth is, that we are all the same and part of the human race. The time has come to STOP this idea of separation and segregation within this subject and many others. Sexual preference doesn’t matter! People matter! Being able to stand in your truth matters. Mutual respect of each others values, beliefs, and preferences matter. It is actually hypocritical that the military is meant to defend/uphold freedom and yet when it comes to sexual orientation they have taken away servicemen’s civil liberties. Just absurd!
