If I Had To Choose.....

Between keeping either a gay soldier or a bigoted one....I'd say goodbye to the bigot.

At least the gay one won't embarrass the country, cause drama in the ranks or create international incidents that inflame the populace our units are stationed in on overseas deployments like the bigoted one would.

Remember Abu Ghirab?    The idiot in Iraq that used a Holy Quran for target practice?   A white soldier that deliberately shoots a fellow Black soldier in his unit.     Sgt. Dwayne Cole was shot in the neck and survived it, but is paralyzed him from the chest down.

So yeah, keep the gay ones, kick out the bigoted ones.

Repeat DADT.   Let everybody in the GLBT community who wishes to serve the country do so openly and honestly, including our trans brothers and sisters.
