Monday, March 18, 2002 10:57 AM September 11-2001 Funds To Whom, March 18-2002 It seemed for but a second back in September, that if nothing else, we were all forced to re-evaluate what was important to us as a people, as a nation and as a member of the human race. It was a very brief second... America seems to back to its old self. While I should not be surprised, I do feel a profound sense of loss in that it appears we have not learned much or anything from such a horrific event. We are all in this together regardless of our views and yet there are those persistant individuals and groups with fear and loathing in their hearts that will go to the ends of the earth to deny the most basic of liberties, rights and dignity to even those American's directly involed in the tragety. Gay and lesbian American's are being denied the same benefits of their heterosexual counterparts; how can we begin to justify such blatant discriminitory practices in 2002 and in America of all places. The Land of the Free...for who? With Liberty and Justice for ALL.....with exceptions! Seems that theses basic American values that we are all raised to cherish have never been and continue to be denied to the population as a whole for various misguided reasons, usually masked under the name GOD or RELIGION. Some went as far as to say that the events of 9-11 were caused by gays and lesbians. Our government officially sanctions such hatred and it is thus taught to our kids and others. Hatred is dangerous and if left unchecked, can bring down the mightiest of nation's. A Few Thoughts.
