(CNN) -- A federal court in Riverside, California, ruled Thursday that the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy -- which bars gay men and lesbians from serving openly -- is unconstitutional.
"Plaintiff has demonstrated it is entitled to the relief sought on behalf of its members, a judicial declaration that the don't ask, don't tell act violates the Fifth and First Amendments, and a permanent injunction barring its enforcement," concluded U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips, a 1999 Clinton appointee.
WOOT Social Engineer the Armed Forces !!
WOOT Social Engineer the Armed Forces more! **** their mission, **** what's best! POLITICAL CORRECTNESS ROCK!!
It will be fascinating to watch what happens. Some studies have suggested that a significant number of troops wouldn't reenlist if gays were allowed to serve openly. It'll be very interesting to see if that comes to pass, and if so, what the result is for the military.

Link to studies?
I don't remember where, it was about two years ago, right as Obama was getting elected, lol. I think it was from the Center for Military Readiness or something like that.

GAY-FEARING sailors could be encouraged to act like homosexuals in bizarre drama sessions, it emerged last night.
A Navy boss revealed he aimed to set up therapy lessons to change “old-fashioned” attitudes in the Senior Service.
"As for other initiatives on the drawing board my Policy Team is currently investigating the feasibility of utilising drama-based training resources, to reach some of those whose culture and behaviour need to be brought into line with 21st Century thinking. We believe that such training can be a powerful and innovative medium that can easily be adapted into Service scenarios.
"I am also pleased to be able to confirm that my Diversity Team is working with Gay officers and Stonewall to investigate an overt Service presence at the forthcoming EuroPride festival in London.
THE PURPOSE OF AN ARMED FORCE IS TO DEFEND THE REALM AND GO 'ROUND THE WORLD BLASTING THE BADDIES. IT'S NOT TO ACT AS WET NURSE TO A BUNCH OF SHOULDER-BECHIPPED BENDERS WHO INSIST ON THRUSTING THEIR SEXUAL PROCLIVITIES INTO THE WORLD'S FACE!
Did you miss the part where a soldier whom acts completely professional on base can be discharged for their lawful actions off base, even if it's someone looking through their window and seeing a marriage certificate.
It has nothing to do with being PC and everything to do with allowing soldiers to soldier without having to worry about someone seeing their private life.
So, the DoD should do away with the regulation that prohibits adultry, too?
These regulations are in place a reason, not just to be mean to certain people. You do understand that. Yes?
