Justice Delayed, but Leonard Matlovich would have to be happy today: Repeal of DADT

Thank you for your bravery, Leonard. You blazed that trail all the way to December 18, 2011. I hope someone writes 65-31 on your headstone in celebration. Seriously, thank you.

Thanks for remembering Leonard's having started this fight 35 years, 35,000 discharges, and 7 Presidents ago. I'd hoped that the bill would be named in his honor like the Matthew Shepard and Lilly Ledbetter bills, but "professional" gay advocates weren't interested.

Here's some vintage video you might enjoy:
