Lt. Dan Choi, Iraq war veteran and vocal opponent of the military’s Don’t Ask Don't Tell policy (DADT), was arrested by police officers after chaining himself to the front gate of the White House.

Choi and a second soldier, former Army Capt. James Pietrangelo II, in an act of civil disobedience, chained themselves to the White House gate to bring attention to the unjust and failed policy of discrimination against gay and lesbian soldiers DADT represents.
