Discrimination against gays and lesbians
I am so angry that the families of gay and lesbian victims are not going to
be eligible for the compensation fund's money. It's an outrageous decision
that is made even worse by the fact that you WILL be compensating the
families of illegal aliens. How can that possibly make sense? People who
were breaking the law are going to be compensated while American citizens
are not eligible because of their sexual orientation. Saying that you can't
break state laws while you are rewarding illegal aliens is a very bogus
argument.
How would you explain this to or , both of whom
died as heroes and both were proudly and openly gay? Do you really think
they are lesser people than you?
