I am very concerened about your treatment of the victim's.....

Hello my name is , and I just read an email sent to me by a friend concerning your treatment of the partners of homosexual victims of the
world trade attacks. I think it is disgusting that in this "the new
millineum" our government remains as prejudiced towards homosexual as they
were in the past. A homosexual relationship is just as real and loving as a
heterosexual one. There is pain as well as sadness in the loss of a partner
in either relationship. SO why are homosexuals considered undeserving of
benefits for the loss of their partners. As our government you cannot allow
this to happen. You must treat all victims of the attacks equally, and
justly. If you do not then how can you ever say you serve the people, when
you deny a significant portion of your population. I am proud to be an
American; I am proud to live in one of the most beautiful, and caring
countries in the world. Please do not make me lose faith in this great
nation. I can never vote honestly in a country that treats some of it's
citizens as second-class. I love this country with all my heart and would
hate to see it become a hateful and unjust. Please if this email has done
anything to change your mind, then try and help. Please do something to
change our government's treatment of the homosexual partners of the victims
of the world trade attacks. Thank you for your time, and I hope you do
something.



Sincerly,
