Victim compensation
US Dept of Justice,
I don't believe that taxpayer money should be used to compensation the families of the events of 11 September. If these families are compensated what about a family that lost a family member killed by a drunken driver on County Road K in Pierce County Wisconsin on 11 September? Family tragedy is family tragedy why would some families be compensated with tax payer money and others would not? Is being killed by a Religious nut from the Middle East different then being killed in a hundred other ways? I many cases the families will be well taken care of by personnel/employer insurance. The hype of this tragic event should not be a reason to spend tax dollars on compassion that is not offered to other families suffering the lose of their loved ones.
