Sunday, March 17, 2002 2:07 AM Do not discrimanate In recent interviews, the head of the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund (a fund created by Congress to help the families of those who died on September 11) has made clear that the partners of gay and lesbian heroes of September 11 will not necessarily receive the same benefits as the spouses of heterosexual victims of the horrible terror attacks. I did not see this interview. However, if the newspaper is giving a good report of what was said I wish to register my complaint about the way this is being done. This is after all the United States of America and last time I looked we do not support discrimination from Government officials. Actually we do not support much discrimination from anyone. It is against the law to discriminate even though Sexual Orientation is not specifically listed there are enough things that are listed so that it is quite clear that discrimination is not one of the things this country stands for. If you are distributing tax money it is even more important that there be no discrimination. We all pay taxes and should be sure that we all get what is coming to us.
