Holiday Givings, DADT finally gone…
Monday December 20th 2010, 1:09 pmWishing a Happy Holiday time to everyone.
I am so happy that DADT is finally gone. I have to say this was a perfectly timed thing to happen for our country, in terms of what time of year Don’t Ask Don’t Tell was repealed, a nice gift from our government. Its just sad that this policy ever occurred in the first place. It was grotesque and shameful that we ever went there. And terrible that it took nearly two decades for the folly to be properly dealt with. It made us seem less civilized than other industrialized nations on this matter. But with it’s repeal finally seeing reality, I feel a little more hopeful that our country can move forward into a better future. It shows us that progress is happening, I just wish it didn’t take so damn long.
Now to figure out what this may mean for Kate Kane, we’ll need to acknowledge this in some way, but properly in the plot, much like the policy’s enforcement affected the plot for Batwoman’s origin. Like it informed her past, setting her on the path she now has, this new progress will have to inform her direction at some point in a significant way.
