Denied!

This is a listing of "disabilities" the gay community must put up with. Conservatives say their is no use for civil unions, etc. well, what about the following rights homosexual couples are not entitled to:

- Accidental death benefit for the surviving spouse of a government employee;
- Appointment as guardian of a minor;
- Beneficial owner status of corporate securities;
- Bill of Rights benefits for victims and witnesses;
- Consent to post-mortem examination;
- Control, division, acquisition, and disposition of community property;
- Criminal injuries compensation;
- Death benefit for surviving spouse for government employee;
- Disclosure of vital statistics records;
- Eligibility for housing opportunity allowance program of the Housing, Finance and Development Corporation;
- Exemption from claims of Department of Human Services for social services payments, financial assistance, or burial payments;
- Exemption from conveyance tax;
- Funeral leave for government employees;
- Income tax deductions, credits, rates exemption, and estimates;
- Insurance licenses, coverage, eligibility, and benefits;
- Legal status with partner’s children;
- Making partner medical decisions;
- Payment of worker's compensation benefits after death;
- Permission to make arrangements for burial or cremation;
- Right to inherit property;
- Rights and proceedings for hospitalization and treatment (both voluntary and involuntary);
- Spousal privilege and confidential marriage communications;
- Tax relief for natural disaster losses;
- Right to marry someone out of the country, and bring them back here to the U.S.

The denied rights we judge to be the worst have been placed in bold.

In a "free society" where homosexual couples must also pay taxes.....why not refuse? If the government refuses to recognize our relationships maybe we should refuse to recognize their authority (just a thought, but gosh that would be funny).

Is this list missing anything?

That makes me so mad to look at that long list of rights denied to me and every other gay or lesbian in this state. We shouldn't have to live in a world of denial. America needs to wak up and realize that we are not a minority anymore. More and more people come out of the closet everyday... when will the hate end...

Regardless of all that I will fight for my rights. The government is monsters and always have been, treating people like animals! I would be afraid to have their souls and their jobs. To be so cold and cruel is to work for the devil himself. I feel a lot of this is church motivated. Blind, mindless, and fearful sheep being led a stray. Never will it be right to attack people who are only trying to be happy and do good things. I believe with all of my being that people who attack us or other "groups" of wonderful people are only setting their own fate for their souls. I am peaceful and happy and know that I am blessed. The path we walk may be hard and uphill, but we walk with grace and blessings for our loving and compassionate ways. Lastly I must say if this is the case then I will one day seek out a place to live where they will take us with open arms and feel honored to have us. We are people of such powerful love , compassion, and understanding. That so many people tend to share private things with us knowing it will be okay :) For now my cup runith over with love and happiness, for they can never take that away. They never stopped Jesus, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King, or Rosa Parks. So to them I say good luck I wish we could ban together to put a stop to this all. I'd be willing! Like the movie "Wedding Wars" : )
