   Yes, your sexual preference won't harm your ability to be a soldier. Just because they like the same sex doesn't mean they will be going after every person of the same sex, it's just unfair to judge people based on their sexuality.

   Yes, definitely. Both men and women serve in the military, so does that mean heterosexual people shouldn't be allowed to serve? They have the potential to have sex with their colleagues also! People should not be denied any job based on their sexual preference. It's discrimination.

   Absolutely they should be allowed to serve!  Being homosexual does not make you a felon or a criminal under any circumstances.  I do not understand how the military can have a so-called 'Equal Opportunity' program (AR 600-20) and still discriminate against certain individuals based on sexual orientation.  The military discriminates against their own people all the time based on marital status and family status.  Single soldiers are treated differently than married soldiers based on the pay, living conditions, and entitlements alone. Idiots.

   They are already serving - with honor.  That should be enough to end the debate. Only two percent of our population serves in our all volunteer force. that has been bearing the brunt of 10 years of war. How dare we question the right to serve of any one who is making these sacrifices for the rest of us?
