Why doesn't the U.S. allow gay people in the military? ?

Just curious this country is already a disgrace this just adds to the list. I'm doing a paper on this btw. Any answers would be helpful.

"Don't ask don't tell" is a joke! Gay men and women still cannot serve in the miltary while being open to themself!

Who would WANT to fight for a country that doesn't even accept them!

This country is a DISGRACE!


    




Cassidy :P
because they are idiots.

You are mis-informed.
President Clinton cleared the way for gay people to serve on a "don't ask, don't tell" basis.
The military isn't a dating service, or a political movement - so the policy don't ask and don't tell applies to most political issues in the military.

Never heard of don't ask, don't tell? How could they possibly keep them all out? There are gays in the military.

Military tradition.

Connor A - Screw you, this country is not a disgrace.

If the country is such a disgrace why don't you get the hell out of it?


MeHoo
They technically don't keep them out, they just don't ask, and as long as gays dont' tell, they can stay.


Ibredd

gays seem to have lower immune systems, a fighting force needs to be able bodied.

Yo, I get that you're up in arms about this issue which I gather matters mucho to you, but let's reflect on how long it took black people to integrate into America.



Done?

Stuffing drastic change down people's throats is rarely ever a good idea.

Here's why: because the combat units are all male and they work excellently now. But if you throw openly gay people into the mix how will that effect things? No one knows and as someone else above pointed out, a time of war is not a time to conduct social experiments in the military.


Phil K
Well little boy when you grow up and become a man you might understand that the US Military is not a place to perform social experiments. Its purpose is to protect. Any social engineering done should only be done so as to improve their readiness.

They are people whatever their gender, equality is the word you are looking for.

Whoa James Bond has spoken, watch yourself dude!

I don't know why, but if selective service came after me and said I had to go to war I'll just tell them I'm gay. Hopefully that would work so I wouldn't have to go.


Eric
Our country is full of ignorant people.


Crazy Pats
they might rape the other dudes that are straight.. lol
