Lady Gaga Speaks on DADT 

     Lady Gaga has released a youtube video to ask for the repeal of DADT.

     Gaga explains DADT, urges senators to protect the constitution, and asks her fellow citizens to make a stand.

    Everyone is giving her shit right now because “it’s scripted” or “she’s not a ‘real’ activist.”

     But here’s the truth of the matter. SHE is trying to make a difference, why should we not be supportive.  And YES there are other activists who make it their job to work hard for things like this every day, and they should be honored as well.  But in all honesty Lady Gaga reaches a much wider audience then they can at this point, so why should we not honor that. 

     There is a large group of complacent americans that watch issues like this pass them without a glance until it effects them directly.  It’s a shame, but maybe Lady Gaga speaking out will cause at least some change in people to look harder, ask questions, and CARE.

     Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I think it’s great that she speaks for what she believes in unlike other “celebs” who are too afraid that they will offend someone and lose a fan or two along the way.

MORE IMPORTANTLY : call you senators if this is a cause you believe in.
