911 fund

I'm a Public Health Graduate Student. I have a 4.0 GPA. I just happen to be gay and have a boyfriend of one and a half years. I want to work for the CDC to protect my country's people against disease. I just happen to be gay. Enough already with the discrimination! I don't want special rights, I want equal rights! If the gay and lesbian loved ones of victims of 9/11 aren't compensated as equally as the straight ones, there will be a lot of unhappy people. Choose your decisions based on what you feel inside your heart and your mind, what you know is right, not what people tell you and want you to believe. How many gay heros will have to die defending our country before we will be given the same rights as the breeders? To ever achieve the society we strive for, and the world we would like to live in, we have to love and treat each person the same. Shouldn't we start in our own country?

Sincerely,
