1. I very much hope President Obama repeals this policy.
Discriminatory and completely unnecessary.

4. They just said that recruiting standards in the past
were lowered to include convicted felons to meet quota... what the hell is wrong with this country that the military would accept felons over openly gay people? People seriously need to get over their homophobia. :mad:

5. The Gay-Bashers in the Service are the same as in civilian life.....
..A good percentage of them are ignorant Rednecks.
And Yes...I served and I'll say it again (even Worse)..
