That sound you heard yesterday was...almost imperceptible. The Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy of discrimination and marginalization of gay soldiers is now history, and even the Marines are actively recruiting in neighborhoods with large gay populations. In Oklahoma. The world has changed.
Perhaps now the armed forces, and the United States as a whole, can move forward by making sure that all citizens are treated equally based on their abilities and talents, and not on the biases and irrational hatreds harbored by fear and ignorance.
