I'm just...boggled.
Or wish I could be.

You'd think they'd be happy to see gay corpses under any circumstances.
They want to "stop social experimentation in the military."
One of the most noted, and fiercely opposed, cases of social experimentation in the military came when Harry Truman ordered it to engage in the social experiment of racial desegregation.

"an unacceptable risk to good order, discipline, morale and unit cohesion"
If there were any such risk, wouldn't it have to be more important than burial sites.

The first time I read about this bit of fuckwittage, I was outraged. Then I considered the source, and remained outraged.
It's cheesy, but death really is the great equalizer. Religious divisions aside, is it REALLY going to bork your afterlife if you're buried next to a homosexual? REALLY? Or are these idiots worried that running into grieving friends and family of a G or L service member might shake their resolve by humanizing a group of people they spend their miserable lives vilifying?
(Christ, what are they going to do if they don't get their way? Start a petition to have the headstones of homosexuals engraved with pink triangles? What a crock of crap.)
