All US citizens should be exactly equal in government eyes
Our federal government was formed on the premise of protecting the liberties of our people. In that spirit, I believe that all
U.S. citizens should be exactly equal in the eyes of the government--discrimination of any kind, regardless of intention or plurality of support, is unacceptable. An American is an American--no more, but certainly no less.
