Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Saturday, January 26, 2002 9:17 AM government paying of victims I really am bothered that the US government sees fit to pay victims families for Sep 11th. These people were killed. It certainly amounts to wrongful death. But how can we draw a distinction from Sep 11th or being shot to death in a gas station holdup, a bank robbery, a home robbery, or even killed by an automobile accident ( about 110 Americans die every single day from automobile related incidents). How can our government tax us to help some but not all families of wrongful death or murder ? I believe it is unconstitutional. I feel very strongly, and am very angry over what has happened to these fellow Americans, but how can we compromise our constitution, by having our government giving this one group cash? I want to see Bin Laden's head on a post outside the capitol as a warning to all who might attempt such a thing. But financial meddling by our government should not happen.
