DADT is done. Just a quick note to say how thrilled I am about this. Now remember that when Don't Ask Don't Tell was signed into law, it was actually a step forward. Instead of an all out ban on homosexuals in the military, the law was meant to say it's none of our business, but please keep it under wraps. Huge step forward at the time.
Unfortunately it ended up discharging even more men and women than before the ban. Not to mention it was incredibly hard for men and women to serve silently.
But now it is all over and there is much to celebrate. This is a big step forward, though we are still far behind many other countries and gay men and women still suffer a number inequalities under the law in the US. Any thoughts on how long until Federal Recognition of same sex marriage?
