bruno Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I win...time for my parade now Gay pride? That's just fabulouz! Hell, it's a parade... Yea, and the best thing about it is you can 'walk on both sides of the street'. Serious question Army Husker, what do you think of the possible removal of don't ask don't tell? I actually had to chapter out an E-5 when I was a 1st LT, guy was a great tank gunner. As an officer in the United States Army, I would say that I will fully support and obey any legislation passed by Congress and signed into law by the Commander in Chief, my boss. B) Yeah.....we had to tow the same line as well. But I did it with pride and the best I could. Yeah yeah yeah AH, I got all that. You are allowed to still have a personal opinion on something, you may not be able to demonstrate but they still let you vote. Anyway good luck if this happens, will be a morale nightmare in some sectors I think. That it will...I like the if it ain't broke, dont fix it approach. If you like people of the same sex, I don't wanna f'in hear about or see it...just get the job done when you're at work. Right now, a majority of people as a whole don't look too kindly on gay people, which would cause disruption at work. Disruption affects productivity, and not to sound cliche', that could cost someone a life. Unfortunately, personal opinions in this job take a back burner to mission accomplishment. I trust that a right decision will be made and regardless of whether or not I agree with it, I will abide by that decision. You can well bet though that situations of a possible hostile work environment will be a key negative factor that will keep the don't ask, don't tell policy intact. Guess that's my opinion.

It should be noted, however, that those same arguments (or variations thereof) were given for excluding blacks and females. One of the wonderful things about the military is the ability to assimilate disperate individuals into a cohesive whole - and in doing so, remove much of the stigma that was originally associated with "others". The truth is that allowing openly gay individuals would work the same way. Those that are "flaming" would wash out pretty quickly - or more likely won't elect to enter the service. The remainder would fit in. Would there be problems? Yes, initially. But as with minorities and women, they would be overcome. Quote Link to comment
