The Repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell

Many of our supporters have been writing in expressing concern about how the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell affects the GNU Public Dictatorship. In an effort to respond to these questions, here's a FAQ:

Q. Does this repeal affect GPD personnel?
A. No. The GPD has never used lifestyle choices as a basis for selecting or removing personnel. Unless, of course, you count brad/hole punch use as a lifestyle, in which case we have zero tolerance of that lifestyle.

Q. Will the GPD be pressured to follow suit and repeal its anti-brad policies?
A. We don't think so. The repeal affects members of the armed forces of the United States of America. While many of our supporters reside in the United States of America and some are members of that country's military the GPD does not operate under their control. Most of our supporters identify themselves first as World Citizens and are not flexible on their anti-brad stance.

Q. Will brad users attempt to become part of the GPD by saying that "they were born that way"?
A. Most likely. The Parent Corporation has been pushing this belief on the public for several months now, and many respected publications have been printing it as if it were obviously true. We hope World Citizens will be smart enough to realize that, while brads may be addictive, each person can control his or her own destiny by choosing whether or not to use them.

Q. Aren't you ashamed of yourselves for hating brad users?
A. We don't hate brad users. We reach out to them and try to give them the information they need to decide to abandon brads and choose a life that will ultimately be much more rewarding.
