9/11 Remembered

I was in third grade when it happened and from what I remember of that day was doing my very first morning wank off (My first and last time for that) cause the day before I heard the 5th graders saying that it feels good to do it and how to do that
After I finish that I went to get my breakfast and turned the morning radio and I heard about the Twin Tower Crash

Do't remember what I was doing when it happened, but the whole thing gets blown out of proportion.

Yeah, I get it, people died , and **** happened, but you don't need to mourn every damn year, just move on already.

You don't need to mourn, but people aren't necessarily wrong for taking a moment to remember.

Exactly. I also try to tell people that the entire bonanza they have over it is like a sick macabre holiday that rips the victims and their families' wounds freshly open again year after year with a cup of salt slowly rubbed in those wounds just because a few Americans want to feel like they were the ones that lost their own family and friends in that tragic event even though they never most likely did.

It is virtually disgusting and anybody who even tries to mourn it and has not lost anyone or were even affected directly by it just so they can look good or profit off of it are sick human beings.America ha collectively pissed and smeared on those victims' names and allowed their memories to die in vain just because their precious pride was hurt. No one ever seen the radio and TV stations pulling that **** after Pearl Harbor in the 1940's and 1950's, so why the hype?

Why not do something in their memory and not perpetrate more terror, rebuild the WTC with the exact plans as the first albeit updated ,and move on?

Actually, that DID happen with Pearl Harbor. It has died down, but there are still morons that bring it up where it isn't warranted. Like the idiots on Facebook or Twitter after the tsunami in Japan.

Expect to hear about 9/11 for the next 50 or so years.

Ahh....so they did?

Wasn't as bad as Hiroshima in the slightest still. Nothing will ever be as bad as that besides the Holocaust. Those are things to mourn over .

Every single American tragedy has NEVER been as bad as those two. Pearl Harbor only lost 2,400 people while 9/11 was in the same range with the only one being the Civil War which was 625,000 people (but that's a WAR so that doesn't count since it didn't happen in one day) but all those either were self induced or done by conventional methods unlike the American side which for some reason oversteps the ethical boundaries in the former, and somewhat in the latter. Even the earliest one with the burning of the capital only had 30 accidental deaths and 1 who was killed , but still ,that was in middle of a war.

There was no war between Japan and America before Pearl Harbor nor was there one with the Middle East. Heck, America went to war with the terrorists in the 80's which started this whole debacle in the first place. I'm not saying it was right in any way for them to die those two days, but let's put things into perspective. Was it worth wasting many more lives and investing money in two wars which were largely unwarranted that should have never happened? We got many positive aspects like no more Saddam and a peaceful Asia with the high tech Japan that was pacifistic we all know and love, but was it worth that many deaths? Hopefully our leaders have learned from the past's tragic mistakes and not repeat them.

I remember waking up that Tuesday morning when my Mom told me a plane crashed into the WTC. At first I thought she was joking, since the only place you see a plane crashing into a national landmark is in the movies. That's when I saw it on the tv and couldn't believe what just happened. For most of the day, we stayed glued to the set, despite that I have to go to work later.

Since then I made it one of my goals to visit Ground Zero to pay my respects as well as see it for myself, which I did two years ago. Looking at it, it was so surreal. I kneeled down to touch the name of a woman who was killed there. Even if I didn't know her, I felt very sad.

The only good that came out of this whole nightmare is that Osama Bin Laden is now sleeping with the fishes!!!

If we think it the humane thing to honor the victims on the anniversary of 9/11, then we also shouldn't lose sight of the thousands of innocent men, women and children who were killed regardless of their involvement in the tragedy because a wounded country sought retribution over peace.
