MAIN EVENT
Bill Clinton announced the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy because he had reasoned that having gays and lesbians in the military would degrade unit cohesion and the military capabilities. He, along with other politicians and people in both the past and present (discrimination against homosexuality had started much earlier than when this policy was announced) had thought that it would discomfort straight soldiers and would bring on stress, which would then affect their performance. The myths of gays and lesbians had also gotten the better of him, as he and many other politicians had also thought that there would be homosexual acts in the military, thus the DADT. Many others had thought that the policy was just as wrong as Clinton had thought that it was wrong for LGBTQ individuals to be in the military.
Military colonels and other soldiers as well had liked the DADT policy and supported it. Few politicians, and citizens alike, had also supported it. But a female citizen had regretted in supporting it, as well as Bill Clinton himself. A citizen that had conversed with a gay soldier had cried after listening to his military life under DADT. She had supported the DADT policy, oblivious to how hard of a life LGBTQ individuals could have because of the policy. She had apologized and deeply regretted the fact.
