I said this would take 5 more years to get done. I was apparently wrong. Frankly, if my predictions were wrong more often, this would be a far far better world.

great, now they can kill and maim civilians in unjustifiable wars as openly gay men and women.

Yeah, just like racial segregation was there to keep black people from having to use the inferior white lunch counters, water fountains, bus seats, and schools.

Not quite. It also prevents gays and lesbians in the armed services from facing discharge after being outed.

i think it was most certainly designed to protect gay people. It took the policy from "if you're gay, we're gonna kick you out with extreme prejudice" to "if you keep your mouth shut, we'll keep our heads turned". Certainly there wasn't going to be any kind of overnight change from "keep out, faggot" to "hey guys, welcome in!"
