Don't Ask, Dont Tell: Removed from DoD?

[Matt308]

Just read an article from the local Washington District 9 Representative, Adam Smith, Member of Congress, that indicated that the US majority democrats are likely to revisit the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy for gays in the military.

Current policy is that if you refrain from flaunting your bedroom habits in your military professional career, you will not and cannot be subject to being singled out. Sounds right, doesn't it?

As much as I love the forum, I'm not about to express my bedroom picadillos to you bunch of dirtheads. Nor would I expect you to do the same. IF YOU DO, you are subject to my ridicule and judgement of said bedroom practices as they must be your minimal defining qualities.

This change proposed by the US majority Democrats will allow any and every fetish to become front page accomplishments on military MOSs.

"Lt. Dingleberry has completed three years of NAS Whidbey service as a mechanic. Lt. Dingleberry enjoys S&M, rear window and being the catcher. He has received 3 unit accomodations."

What are your thoughts?

While I usually don't hold back my personal opinions, I'm not going to bite on this one. I will say that DoD doesn't go by the "don't ask don't tell" thing of the past. The policy has been revised. Current DoD policy maintains that homosexual conduct, not being a homosexual in and of itself, goes against good order and discipline and is incompatible w/ military life. There are strict guidelines and policies regarding the enforcement of this policy.

Good for you. The internet is NOT a private forum. And NEVER forget that.
