I am writing this because I am outraged...yet again..at what our government
deems "fair"...this compensation for the heroes families of Sept 11th...& NOT
giving gay & lesbian surviving partners & families money from the Sept 11th
fund because they are NOT acknowledged by their states. Ahhh but, you can &
ARE bending the rules to pay these funds to illegal aliens. Those who don't
even belong legally in the country, yet you are using this "shield" of legal
crap to deny those who DO belong here & who DO have citezenship.
This country's government might still be viewed as the best by some..but,
when it discriminates CONTINUALLY against gays & lesbians or those people or
communities it doesn't "accept" I have to wonder. This news doesn't surprise
me unfortunately...& perhaps THAT is the real shame.
May you find a way to rest at night & pray that if you are ever in a life
threatening situation, someone doesn't "discriminate" against you.
