DADT: Fourteen years older yet none the wiser
Beginning Friday, the 14th anniversary of the miltary's disturbingly short-sighted "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, the Human Rights Campaign, Servicemembers United, Log Cabin Republicans, Servicemembers Legal Defense Network and Liberty Education Forum will join forces to host a three-day tribute to the 12,000 who have been discharged under the discriminatory law. Here's an event video that's been put together by HRC:
Some soldiers get honored with medal or purple hearts; others get a "sorry your inner truth got you booted" parade. But hey -- gay beggars can't be choosers (despite what the "ex-gays" may tell you).

And, of course, you can experience the worthiness of DADT by doing the following:
Entering a never-flushed truck stop toilet stall and taking a big whiff.
