Don't ask, Don't tell.

I can't begin to tell you how heated this new "repeal" gets me. Okay, so it's officially okay for our gay and lesbian friends to be open with their sexuality in the military. So, it's officially okay for gays and lesbians to fight and die for our country. Okay, that's great. We're making progress. But I am the only one that thinks it's a little effed up that these people can now die for our country, and yet their partners will not be awarded the same benefits I would if Dayton died in the service? That's not right. It's okay for you to be gay. You're good enough to fight for us. But you're still not good enough to share the same rights and equalities as the rest of us. Sorry.

Please. Start legalizing gay marriage so these people can have the same benefits that the rest of us are entitled to, and I'll be proud.
