Those crazy gays are still asking for outrageous things! Take this guy's story, reported by HRC.org. Who does he think he is?
Trying to find out if his partner is alive or dead? Come ON!
We all know that only opposite sex couples are deserving of that kind of information!
=============================== Eric Breidenbaugh knew something was wrong.
His partner and his partner's parents were all missing – hours overdue from a family flight aboard a small private plane. Eric called his local airport, near Pinellas Park, Florida, to see if they had any information. They did, but they wouldn't give it to him. They said he was "not an actual family member," so they couldn't tell him whether his partner was alive or dead.
He searched the TV news, where he soon saw footage of the plane he himself had ridden in many times. That was how he found out that his life partner of six years, Joseph Bellamy, had been killed with his parents in a plane crash.
It's simply wrong that GLBT Americans should be treated like second-class citizens, denied the right to care for their loved ones.
==============================
I couldn't agree more.
Thanks, HRC, for another reminder of exactly what we are fighting for.
