Conservatives launch web campaign to retain gay military ban

n advocacy group in the United States has launched a Congressional petition against calls for the country's military to allow openly gay people to serve.

The Centre for Military Readiness claims that a "sexual agenda" is being pushed that "advances the goals of gay activist groups."

Under a US federal law passed in 1993, referred to as "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," more than 12,000 men and women have been dismissed.
