Retired Army Generals and Coast Guard Admiral Come Out
Friday December 12, 2003
The revelation of three retired military officers' homosexuality questions the validity and purpose of the United States military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. The ex-officers, two Army generals and one Coast Guard admiral are the highest ranking military leaders to publicly come out.

In my opinion it nobody business who loves who and what sex they prefer…and i live in a state that it against the law for the same-sex partners to sleep in the same bed
My opinion is that its not right but its there choice to be gay or whatever they want! Thats part of the Freedom of speech in the constitution. So yea, its okay..cuz i am too!
It is wrong and very gross. People who are like that is messed up, sorry crystal. But i agree its their part of their freedom of speech.
Cody, it is because of people like you that gay males are 3.5 to nearly 14 times more likely to attempt suicide.
Society’s prejudices take a long time to be diminished – prejudice because of racism, disability, indigenous status and sexual orientation has yet to be fully diminished.
Besides, you’re commenting on the ‘Gay Life’ blog, for crying out loud. Anonymity on the internet may be a blessing for you now, but what if you said that at a gay pride parade? Would you really risk your life defending your opinion about something that should just be left alone?
Being gay is different, not wrong. We haven’t said anything about you, so treat others how you would want to be treated.
