Don't Ask Don't Tell.

I just learned that DADT has been repealed thanks to a tweet by Lady Gaga.

Can't hold back the tears+pride. We did it! Our voice was heard + today the Senate REPEALED DADT. A triumph for equality after 17 YEARS.

I never really cared about DADT because it's never going to affect my life or my rights in any way, but it's good to know that the Senate finally voted to repeal it.
Apparently homosexuality "would create an unacceptable risk to the high standards of morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion that are the essence of military capability."

Akh... :-/
