1st Circuit rejects “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” challenge



How Appealing reports that the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals has rejected a challenge to the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, thereby, creating a circuit split with the 9th Circuit over the scope and meaning of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Lawrence v. Texas.

The opinion is: Cook v. Gates, No. 06-2313 (1st Cir. June 9, 2008).

ADF’s press release on the ruling is here.

Eugene Volokh has this commentary on the ruling on the Volokh Conspiracy.

    Oh! What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive. The homosexual agenda is just that-deception, one of Satan’s most effective devices. Thanks to ADF and the 1st Circuit for some sense and sanity in their review and decision. How did it all come to this in the first place? Instead of righteous indignation Christians practiced “tolerance” for the thing that God calls “sin”. Reprobate minds, as Paul called them.
