For vastly different reasons, I and a co-worker in my office who's an ex-military guy are in agreement on wanting to see "Don't Ask Don't Tell" eliminated.

I think it's discriminatory and violative of the Constitution's Equal Protection clause; he couldn't care less about the discrimination aspect, but doesn't want to serve alongside anyone in an active combat setting who, if severely wounded and bleeding, might pass along HIV. IOW-he'd prefer to know if the wounded guy was gay, so he'd know not to get too close.

No comment on the humanity of my co-worker's reason for agreeing with me...
