Never said they weren't 'good people' or wouldn't do a 'good job'. In fact I more or less stated that there had been many of them in for a long time doing their job, without the approval of the government, and living discreetly because not doing so would have gotten them kicked out for lying under oath when they joined. The DADT policy eleminated that hurdle and should have been enough but obviously wasn't.
I assume by your reply you've never served but there is a certain 'lifestyle choice' lived and rejected by most military personel that goes directly against the lifestyle this bill is intended to force them to accept. At it's core the military is no differet than any private club in the civilian world. They have their way of seeing things and doing things and do not want or need the type of behaviour in their midst that this bill will openly allow. That said, as I implied, like any other private club there are ways things get taken care of that aren't necessarily right, or by the book, but that do send the message loud and clear that certain actions are not going to be tolerated regardless of what 'the boss', who has never been there himself, says....
Based on the articles I've read about it so far most that were kicked out or quit prior to this have experienced this message and still want to go back in. Given their already bad experiences I can't help but think that their only reason for wanting back in is to be able to openly flaunt their lifestyle ((((and how often does that happen now days??????))))) thinking that they will be protected by 'the boss'....Unfortunately the boss isn't going to be in that remote space onboard ship when an accident occurs or on the deck outside, after sundown, when that small splash will never be heard........ In other words, LIVE AND LET LIVE and follow the old ways and DO NOT TELL, that is if you like your health, because everyone in the military does not feel the same way our politicians making these decisions for them do........
