End "Just say no" now!
VoteVets.org prompted me to write the following letter to my newspaper===========================================
In 1978 I was stationed in Taegu Korea on Camp Walker, a US Army base. I shared a two man room with a gay gentleman. We became good friends. He never made an advance at me no in any way made me to feel uncomfortable. Troops had individual showers and, out of a sense of decency, every one walked around in at least a robe or towel.
Another soldier found out through the rumor mill that this man was gay and went to the base commander, Inspector General, our First Sergeant, etc. and my friend was drummed out of the service. How humiliating this must have been.
Let me be clear. This man never bothered anyone, and acted as straight as me, a near redneck from Texas.
Why are gays the last group of humans without rights? People that would never use racial slur easily say, "that is so gay", or call their friends "fagot" as a joke.
Stop the insane "Just say no" policy in the military and give gays the same rights the other 85% of us have.
Sincerely,
PFC William D. Burton
US Army 1977 - 1980
