Less gays?

This is one of those issues that I don't quite understand, the gays want to be able to go off to war and fight for their country but the conservatives don't want them to.

Seeing as there are some conservatives who really don't like gay people you would think that they would love the idea of gays going off to war because this way their is potential for them to die and even if they do no die the more gays we have in the Middle East the less we have here in America.
