Discrimination
Isn't it ironic that the very government that purports itself to be "one
nation, under God, with justice and liberty FOR ALL" is discriminating
against gays and lesbians ONCE again. I am saddened that my country (which I
love greatly) is discriminating against the significant others of gays and
lesbians by not disbursing 9/11 victim funds to them. If my government is
using the age old rationale that such partners are not legally married, then
these funds should be distributed to non-governmental researchers in their
quest to find a cure and/or vaccine for AIDS/HIV. There MUST be a memorial
to honor those gay and lesbian HEROES.
