9/11 fund
To whom it may concern,
I am writing to you to plead that you leave bigotry behind and do the right
thing for all Americans and compensate the gay Americans who lost loved ones
on September 11. The failure to do the right thing would only point out how
little was learned from that tragic date. If in the wake of such a disaster
our government can still go ahead and discriminate against their citizens,
even putting illegal aliens above American homosexuals then it is a truly
sad day for America and the world. The loss of any life is tragic and those
who died left behind partners, parents, brothers and sisters and dear
friends. Are you willing to state that the loss and hurt that these people
are coping with everyday is less then for those who were killed and were
straight, Shame on you for even thinking that and who gave you the license
to play GOD! To think that you would discriminate at this time saddens me
greatly and makes it impossible to be a proud American. I hope you will look
into this matter realizing the grave consequences it has and do the right
thing. For God's sake did we learn nothing from 9/11?
Deeply saddened,
