Sunday, March 17, 2002 8:07 PM Bigotry Dear Sirs, I am appalled that as a taxpayer, I am involuntarily bailing out all the victims of Sept. 11, including fetuses and illegal, undocumented workers, when the only thing that seems to guarantee one exclusion from benefitting from this fund is being in the long term gay or lesbian domestic partner of one of those killed. This is a clear case of convenient bigotry. You hide behind the fascade of "state laws" when the fact that you are willing to extend benefits to law breakers belies the bigotry that lurks behind this policy. I am ashamed of you! I am also curious whether I will be expected to shelve out money to compensate future victims of terror. There will certainly be many more! Why not victims of all kinds of violence? How about the families of the embassy workers? How about abused or tortured women? How about the family of &nbsp ? How about the surviviors of the next airline crash or car accident? Shame! Shame! Shame!
