Mr. Ambien Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 There you go again. If you can't remember every tragedy in human history....why remember one, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeterHansen Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I was only 7 when the towers were hit, grade 2 I believe...I remember the teacher left the room and came back white as a ghost. The school ended up sending everyone home because the teachers (and older students) were in quite the distress. I've heard this song each of the last 10 years on September 11th, and I really like it. It's a great tribute. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tearloch7 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 9/11 .. the day American foreign policy efforts "bore fruit" and the "chickens came home to roost" .. I do not believe the US Government was involved in any way other than to cover up and protect the Saudi involvement .. those bas*ards were in it up to their eyeballs .. Watching George W. bend to kiss the Sheik's ring said it all .. except maybe someone told W that he was the "Pope of Petroleum" .. and the Saudi regime being business partners with the "Bush family" only adds to my grave suspicions ..

Navyblue Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I used to think there was some elaborate plan, but these days, not so much. It's like people saying the moon landing is a hoax etc...it's a young person's game. I grew up and my rational mind now makes the decisions. I must say though that this thread is slightly offensive...It's supposed to mourn the fallen, or try to prove some conspiracy agenda? Not very tasteful. May they rest in peace though, the ones whose lives were taken by this brutal event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coleman26 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 If you're not being facetious, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were Aug 6th and 8th, respectively. Which, again, not to mitigate the tragedy of 9/11, but it is far from being on those levels. I mean, it's fine if you want to remember, for our generation it's pretty much the most defining moment of our lifetimes at this point. It just seems like there's such a hoopla about making it the most important event. More important than Veteran's Day, or Memorial Day. Which it isn't.

coleman26 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 More O/T, I remember exactly where I was when it happened. I was 19, working the production floor at a statue factory, doing mindless busy work. It's the only 'rough' job I've ever had, and I was never more thankful for it than when I could put my body right on auto-pilot, just do my work and listen to the radio. I remember thinking it was going to get worse, and for a while there were rumblings and sensationalist journalism that reported that there were unaccounted for planes and all I could think about was how awful it could get if every one of them got taken hostage. I'm glad I was old enough to really know what was happening, and not a child who probably thought that the world was about to end seeing all the news reports.

Dragonfruits Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I don't mean to be insensitive but tragedies happen all over the world. This is in the United States so it gets the most media attention. People forget every other part of the world but the US makes sure everyone remembers for ever. I'm sick of hearing GOD BLESS AMERICA. Why not GOD BLESS THE WORLD?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pouria Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Well we do live in North America so I thought it would be obvious that 9/11 stick out a bit more here. Such as I'm sure the tsunami sticks out at people who live around Japan. Maybe just obvious to me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imuzi Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Although I'm not sure that the American governments hand are completely clean in this, the thought of the American government being behind this is more terrifying then any terrorist faction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
key2thecup Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Were you guys in distress too when the tsunami hit Japan? Did they send you guys home during that tragedy too? I remember that I was in high school and watched the news covering 9/11 during my break in the library but we were not sent home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
