Monday, March 11, 2002 2:14 PM 9/11 fund to our heroes I am grateful that I can point to ordinary people as heroes. Who better to hold as example of heroic behavior that those who did nothing more than climb on a plane to travel home, to travel on a vacation, to travel for business and become part of the worst terrorist attack in history? I am grateful, too, that I now can point to something so public and say this is the reason we need laws to protect gays and lesbians. The only class not protected by law will not receive the same as the others. They are all heroes, but deserve has nothing to do with it. Now when someone asks me why gays and lesbians need special laws, I can point to this blatant example of injustice. Why do we need laws protecting the rights of gays and lesbians? We need laws because we fail at fairness for all!
