Interesting News about Don't Ask Don't Tell

According to new data, Don't Ask Don't Tell doesn't just discriminate against gays. The numbers show an interesting trend. Although people of color make up only 29 % of the military, they account for 45% of those that have dismissed because of the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy. I find this very interesting. I guess since most of the people I see protesting and the soldiers that scream the loudest against the policies are not minorities. This is another reason I think I would like to see more out gays of color and straight allies in this fight for LGBT equality. We need to realize that inequality to the LGBT community hurts all races.
