Justice for gays
It's always been the courts who have forced justice upon a reluctant society. A federal court in Californiaordered a ban on don't ask don't tell. Not sure how far this particular case is going, but I'll bet you in 20 years we'll be wondering how in the world we could have ever forced gay military men and women to stay in the closet. Those actively fighting against it will be seen as prejudice and backward.

So why don't you just advertise that the traveler is open to hiring "openly Gay" people and that you prefer to hire them over straights?
Then keep in mind that an article not too long ago suggested that as many as 50% of the Gay males might be carriers of AIDS and not even know it!
Remember the recent story in Wichita of the Air Force officer who was openly sexually active and knew he had AIDS?
Even the NBA players didn't want to play on the Court with Magic Johnson once he was diagnosed with AIDS! (For fear of body fluids like blood etc. through contact!)
Sure straights get AIDS too - but the bottom line is AIDS is more prevalent in GAYS!
Their lifestyle sets them apart from "normal" that very fact creates an atmosphere of segregation!
Are you going to support the mandatory testing of Gays in the military for AIDS? Because they as a group have a higher than normal rate of AIDS? Because military training requires bodily contact?(Certainly you won't that would be discrimination!)
So, then are you actually supporting a form of segregation
by allowing them to be openly Gay in the Military? (Because of the fear of knowing they are GAY and just might have AIDS?)
Military already test for HIV every year, knucklehead. I was in the military back in 1986, and was test once a year (sometimes twice a year, depending if we hit an overseas port of call). It was part of our yearly physical. I personally do not approve of openly gay people in the military, but I also didn't approve of women on combat vessels either. To me, both would/could have been a distraction.
I shudder to think of how openly gay men are going to be allowed to act in the military. I wonder iof they will design new camo that matches their eyeliner?
I am glad I am out of the military.

Really, what about the Guy at wasn't it McConnell in Wichita?
He knew he had but it didn't stop him!
The point is still valid if they are "openly Gay and active" they will no doubt be looked at and even treated differently by their PEERS who aren't GAY!
I believe I even read a post on a local blog someone who said that Gays on ships tend to get roughed up if they get a little "Froggy"!
"And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet." Romans ch1 v.27
When did the military start giving a rats buttox about the rights of the enlisted? I thought that was part of the deal. They call it a uniform because it is uniform. What happens when some panzy wants pink bandanas added to the wardrobe? Will it be a violation of his freedom of speech to deny him his pink bandana and eyeliner? How about rainbow suspenders? This country is going down the tubes in a hurry.
