Should Obama End the Ban on Gays Serving Openly in the Military?
A 1993 law barred gays from serving in the military. President Clinton's "don't ask, don't tell" policy upheld the ban but promised to look the other way if the homosexuality were kept secret. Still, hundreds of gays have been discharged just since President Obama took office. Should the law be thrown out as well? If not, why should it stay on the books? Post your thoughts.

gays in military
i think it should be okay for gays to be in the military and open about it. just because someone is gay it doesnt mean they're going to hit on everyone they stand next to.
Hell no
Hell No he should not change the rule, if they want to be gay fine but not in the military
