How Unfair


I'm writing to express my absolute dismay and pain
around the continued unfair treatment of gay and
lesbians. I have just learned that the September 11
Victims Fund will "not necessarily" provide benefits
to the survivors of gay victims as it will the
heterosexual victims. In fact, benefits will be
awarded to fetuses... and even illegal aliens... but
not the survivors of heros like &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp ? &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp , and a handful of other passengers were good
enough to give their life to make sure another plane
didn't attack innocent occupants of a national
building... but he's not good enough to have his
survivors provided with victim benefits. What a sad
day? When will we learn that all people "are created
equal"????
