Love = good, hate = bad
Yesterday was the official end of Don’t ask, don’t tell. Although there have been gay people in the army since the days of Alexander the Great, it is only now that the US Department of Defense is willing to admit and allow it.
The attached clip is of a young soldier in Germany calling his father to come out of the closet. It’s gotten close to 2 million views in a day because of its powerful message and simple honesty.
Remember this the next time you hear some homophobic idiot ranting about the “gay lifestyle” or the “homosexual agenda”. Remember that gay people are our sons and daughters and sisters and my brother.
Aw that’s so sweet. What a cute boy too….
Chris, I agree with the sentiments expressed in your post. I was eager to see the clip, but it wouldn’t come up. Is it possible to give me a different link? Thanks. Iris
Never mind, Chris. It came up right after I left the message. Powerful, and I appreciated the dad’s ready response assuring his son their relationship remains the same. Iris
Just to let you know all your good work doesn’t go unnoticed. Much appreciated.
