WHERE CAN I BEGIN...
I guess i can say I have bitter thoughts on this law, this way of life, the opposition in this law, the overall communication, and way of life this law created through the years of it's existence.
Let me begin by giving you a brief overview on this law..
Since the Truman era, and the discovery of homosexuals in the military, the United States Military began imposing the Universal Military Uniform Code of Justice, which gave way to imposing quick and direct dismissals to all homosexuals in the forces they were representing. No matter the training, position, or experience... THEY WERE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO FIGHT FOR FREEDOM.
Through the years, Gay activism became main stream, and became something that was ever growing... The presidential eras after this were focused to making things better. At least thats what they claimed. Nothing never happened.
This was until the Democrat President BILL CLINTON, was presented with the opportunity to make things a bit diverse, and easier for the homosexual community. Although over turning the Military Code that had been standing through the past decades, Bill Clinton's administration came up with the idea of a way to be able to by pass the questions and tests to figure out if some one was homosexual, and give way for all people to serve in the military, under one circumstance. "DONT ASK, DONT TELL"..
This consisted of the military being mandated by law, to not question any members of the United States military to ask for any personal information regarding sexual orientation, to enable them the opportunity to serve and protect. This was in effect until this past week, when the law was erased, after much claimed research.
With over 13,300 discharges over the past 17+ years, this law has caused more detrimental repercussions to the United States military than ever before..
These are the issues I believe hurt our military forever, and most importantly what we represent, and how we come together to fight for freedom.....
We are still vividly discriminating, it was a problem with race color, and has always been, but now we have laws, we have ways that are wrong and right.. Our military was discriminating in front of our faces for half a decade, our founding fathers representation of a future for freedom, was altered, we were not free, we were at a stall. Although I must say stalls are a way of life, we learn and we do things diffrent. But this went on for to long. Most importantly the years in which it was in affect, shined light of our government and voters lack of communication with society, a part of society that is helpful in as many ways as any other segment of lifestyles, Gay or not gay, black or white, yellow or a fellow, male or she-male, life is not about what people think of you, it is about what you do, accomplishments, helpful attributes, the sharing and the giving of our citizens. Our military was ignoring people because of things they could not physically prove was detrimental to our world, but instead they did it because it was not normal...
WHAT IS NORMAL, GOING TO WAR OVER OIL, THE WORLD TRADE CENTERS COMING DOWN, POVERTY, LACK OF EDUCATION, NO JOBS...
IS THAT WHAT WE THINK IS NORMAL??
Nothing is normal, everything we think is a conception of what we think is really life, but at the end of the day, we do not control life, life is everlasting until you die, then it's on to the next one.
We hurt our future generations, as now they have misconceptions of what is real, what is right, and ethical. Disabling the people that build our nation and work for the american dream, never the less fight for us, is one of the saddest things we have ever done as a free nation.
We have made our economy even worse, by taking away people that could have worked for us with no problem.
I truly believe that the repeal of this law, has shined light on the major changes that the Obama administration is trying to make, although he was left with more problems than any other recent president, he is making moves to make sure our nation can be smarter, more lovable, and one that can be trusted, as truly being free...
As this law has effected people dire close to me, and I know many can say the same, now everyone can defend our nation, which should have been the case since day one. I mean the question I leave my readers with is, would you want to fight for a nation that has placed restrictions such as these, and now are reversing them, because recent studies have proved other wise? Sounds fishy right... Remember that everything here in America is ran by us... Well wait... Is IT? HMMM
Lets fight this madness, because Im sure no one would want restrictions places against their beliefs. We are not to be under the sanctions of the government, we are not to be told that we cannot speak for ourselves, and be who we want to be.. We will not be spared of our human rights, our amendments, our freedom, our LIVES..
MAK.
