911 Heros
To Whom it may concern:
It saddens me to see that this country wishes for me and all the
people of this country to stand united, especially in instances like
the 911 tragedy, but will divide and separate us in the end, as they
see fit, to their advantage.
I am disgusted and horrified to see that gay and lesbian partners of
those who died heroically for this country (and those making this
decission) on September 11 will not automatically receive the same
benefits as heterosexual spouses. What in the world is wrong with
this picture? How is it possible that these peoples' lives are worth
less than the illegal aliens and the heterosexual people who died?
And how is it that the pain and suffering is less for gay and lesbian
partners of these fallen heros?
This is wrong and something needs to be done to make this right.
