Thread:Comments:Obama signs landmark law overturning 'don't ask, don't tell'/Another step forward/reply

You're correct about 'Don't ask, don't tell' originally being a progressive step, the previous policy is treated hilariously in the movie Stripes. The thing is I feel like... internet damn it, as much as I feel like this is the right thing to do and definitely the way the world should be, I also feel like there are going to be homosexual people hurt and killed by their fellow service members because they've been told they can now safely be open about their sexuality, when that's not necessarily true, they just won't be discharged for it. I really hope noone does get hurt but my fiasco sense is tingling.
