Seriously? That is different.Race and sexual preference are two entirely different things.

I assume you are comparing the intergration of the Armed Forces to homosexuals in the military correct?

No they are not completely different. It was called a morale issue back then. "What about the Morale of white men being forced to call a black man his battle buddy or co-pilot or gunner?"

It is the same as today. Pretending that all the sudden that gays will be overflowing in the military or if military men and women will worry more about if their battle buddy is focused on his/her's rear rather than protecting both of theirs.

To be honest it is downright disgusting how our forces are portrayed. After integration before it was not long before people of different races trusted each other with their lives. Saying that suddenly wont happen with DADT repealed is just insulting.

Not at all, race and sexual preference are both things small minded bigots discriminate over.
