Because everyone should be equal. Everyone should have their voice and opinions heard. I don't know how else to expand on this.

There's a Biblical quote attributed to Jesus --
"when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!" -- Mathew 25:40
That means that if anyone in a society is treated unequally and unfairly, it diminishes all of us. Who knows -- if some are treated unfairly, then we may be the next one's treated unfairly.
