911 Fund
To whom it may concern:
Hello. I am writing regarding the disgusting inequality in the September 11
Relief Fund. Kenneth Feinberg made some pretty upsetting and ignorant
comments on "Meet the Press" on March 10, 2002. He said that gay and lesbian
family members and loved ones will not benefit from the fund. The US
government is willing to break laws for illegal immigrants but is not willing
to abide by laws and give money to rightful recipients. It is a disgrace to
America and everything we stand for, mainly equality, that some heroes are
thought of as better than others. Many gays and lesbians died heroically and
patriotically on September 11 and it is our duty to honor them. Please don't
make their death be in vain. This incident should have taught us to bond
together, because of our similarities, instead of separating us even more. I
guarantee this demeaning action will be remembered when it is time to vote.
Sincerely,
Individual Comment
