US Senate lifts 'don't ask, don't tell' gay soldier ban
Halle-fucking-lujah! It not only made it past the House, it made it past the Senate as well! It looked so promising, when the judge ruled it out, then not, then it made it through the House of Representives, and I couldn't quite believe it would make it through Senate. But it has!!! No more DADT, and a damn good thing too.
It has nothing to do with me; I don't know anyone serving in the UK armed forces, let alone the US ones. But it was a barbaric rule in a country that claims to be the leader of the free world, and it's finally gone.
