And it didn't work. Gay service members were routinely outed against their will. It did NOT protect them. I can deny that. You have to start somewhere. This is the next step. Rome wasn't built in a day. This is the next step. Do you think it would be better without it? This legislation does what it can. Society has moved along farther than this already in the younger generations. It's time the military does, too. As for comfort, tell the gay community that they shouldn't be happy about this, and that it means nothing. I think the majority will disagree. They've been fighting tooth and nail for every inch of ground they can get for a long time. Every inch is a victory. Job security is comfort.
