If a gay person breaks the law, that person will serve a penalty, just as a straight person would do. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with it.
Well, 5-10% of any army will be gay--the question is only whether the gay people are allowed to be open about it. Many armies allow openly gay people to serve, e.g. Israel.
Yes they should, and they already do.
It allowed gay people to serve in the military if they were closeted, but this is hardly an improvement.
Yes, they have been allowed to serve openly since September 21, 2011.
They ARE permitted to serve in the armed forces.
It only became a problem because the military made it a problem. They stopped making it a problem in 2011, and now gay people can openly serve their country.
Yes, gay people have been allowed to join the military since 1993, but because of DADT (don't ask don't tell), They had to be closeted from December 21, 1993 until September 20, 2011.Since 2011, gay people have been able to openly serve and be regarded as full equals in the military.
Lawyers are people who try serving in your best interest to keep you from having to serve prison time, or incur other monetary penalties.
The US Supreme Court overturned Don't Ask Don't Tell on September 20, 2011. All gay people are allowed to serve openly in the military.
Yes, "Don't ask, Don't tell" was repealed.
Gay people can serve in the British Army, and it is illegal to discriminate against them in any way because of their sexuality, It is the same in the US. Laws in other countries vary.
2 main reasons.It shouldn't be seen as shocking that a gay person can be loyal and society shouldn't worry about them wanting sex overseas any more than straight men.Straight soldiers+gay soldiers=more soldiers
