If they want to serve openly then more power to them,but why would they want to? I agree with the repeal,but my fear is that were going to see more incidents of discrimination pop up. I was in army for a very short time,so I know how some people are. So let me honestly ask the gay member's of vgchartz,why would you want to serve openly in the military and take the chance of getting discriminated against are possibly beat down bye some young punks. I'd hope that would'nt happen,but the military is a rough enviroment. Let me stress again,I have nothing against gay people and there desire to openly serve in the military if they so choose,but I just have concerns of were this is going to lead. I'm just trying to play devil's advacte and have an honest discussion about this.

The thing about DADT was that if it was found out that you're gay you would be discharged. I'm sure not every gay person who wants to join the US military will go aroung broadcasting that they're gay, but it will probably be nice to know that they don't have to worry about being discharged if theyre sexual orientation is discovered.

Also, the people who would give gays a hard time are the problem, not the gays themselves. They should be the ones who are thrown out.

I agree,but would the military throw them out,are would they still have that good ol' boys mentality,that's really hard to say,now I whole heartedly agree with gay people now not having to worry about being discharged if they're sexual orientation is disocovered,that in it's self was nothing but pure discrimination,so yea I agree with the repeal,but I still have some concerns about. It might seem like I'm hating,but I'm really not.
