September 11th Victim Compensation Fund

I just read about this on CNN's website, I would like to state for
public record that I a opposed to this fund. It was a tragic loss of
life, the events of September 11th, but I do not believe it to be more
tragic than someone killed in a homicide or by a drunk driver or the
children killed in Columbine or any of the other schools. I do not
believe the government should be compensating people for their loss of a
loved one, my questions is simple, what's makes the September 11th
victims more important than the other people killed every day in this
country?
