Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Monday, March 18, 2002 1:14 PM With liberty and justice for all...except homos! The day the towers were hit and &nbsp and his buddies made their very rational and sane announcement that this was god's way of punishing the US for allowing gays and lesbians to exist in this country, I knew this was just the beginning of another round of gay bashing. Now we are the reason our country is being attacked be terrorists! I think it is a shame that we gay people have to go out and create our own 9/11 victim's fundraiser for the families and spouses of gay terrorist victims (not heros) because ALL of the other ones out there do not recognize the gay people killed as qualifying for any compensation. After all, &nbsp announced we are the reason why this happened in the first place. Maybe your system should just bill all the homos in America for the damage done on 9/11. The fact that fetuses and illegal (get it - illegal as the terrorist were illegal) aliens will get more than their American-gay commrades, continues to propell the belief that gay people don't count, we don't deserve, we are not recognized etc simply because of how we express our love. (And I always thought the 1st Amendment protected us, allowed us to express ourselves freely. But we all know that story). To say that you are following the law on this with no exceptions, is a lie, or a shame. If illegals are given more status in this country than its own citizens, who identify as being gay, then this Amreican system isn't representative of equality. Your organization's policy on treating gays as less than the others who were killed in the attacks only perpetuates America's duality on its own citizens. I guess you haven't figured out that in the big picture of things, this is just one of many dualies that will ultimately be the demise of America. I hope you are ready, people. 9-11 was the first of many. This terrorist war will not end like an episode of LAW AND ORDER that will be completed in an hour with a few commercial interuptions. This is forever. For as long as you and I and our children and their children live on this planet this war will continue. It is a shame YOU will continue to use as much energy to fight us and our right to be seen as equal, because we are gay, as you will be using against the real enemy. If you are Christians, then you need to re-read the Bible and act like one. For if your actions are based on Christian doctrine, then that is one scary religion. Kill people (We are all of god's children- Jesus didn't make any exceptions, why are you?) because they are different- just to name one example. See you all in hell.
