They are all heroes

To Whom It May Concern:

I find it unacceptable that the partners of gay and lesbian American heroes who died on September 11th will not be receiving the same financial benefits that are freely given to heterosexual victims. Perhaps if the restrictive laws of the United States allowed gays and lesbians to be married we would not have this issue. Until then, GLBT Americans are doing the best they can to live in loving partnerships, raise children, go to work and pay taxes---just like the majority of Americans. I thought discrimination was unlawful in America, but apparently not.

Sincerely,



Individual Comment
