The young dumbshits out rioting never knew what life was like before 9/11. They also didn't watch their country actively get attacked by turning airliners into missiles.Feels like this was just yesterday....
As horrible of a day as it was, some good actually came of it. The country was as unified as ever, and everyone was helping each other out. People were caring and productive. Big difference from today when everyone is at each others throats, looting and rioting all over the country, and basically at the point of a civil war. A lot can change in 19 years.
From the entire internet you find time to make a cheap joke in this thread?
Classy. GTFO.
I wasn't really offended, more like disgusted. Thanks for cleaning it up.I meant no offence. Us Infantry guys try to be light hearted when something tragic happens.
And not tooting my horn here, but I spent 15 months in the Sand Box. Lost some good friends, just like many others, as a result of the events that day.
As not to offend anyone else, I'll take that part out.
God bless the souls of those who perished and ran towards the danger.
I'll never forget the site of the people jumping out of the building trying to escape the flames.
not one article i see on Yahoo News homepage regarding this anniversary. tons of anti-trump bs though. smh
My Aunt and Uncle had rode almost 400,000 miles on three different motorcycles combined across our great Country since 2001. They have so many stories, since they have ridden in all 50 states on a motorcycle. My Aunt was telling me they rode to the crash site in Pennsylvania of Flight 93. She said they were riding down a gravel road and didn’t even know if they were going to the right place and said she just got the most unnerving feeling she had ever felt come over her when they came up on the site of the crash. She said it was so eerily quiet and you could just feel how bad of an act took place at the site.
I haven’t been there, but I feel like I need to take my kids there at some point so they can understand what can....and I hate to say it will happen again on our soil. Maybe not with planes, but something else just as big or bigger.
