Damn straight!God Bless America!!!!
It was a dark day for sure. As terrible as it was the 12th was perhaps our finest hour since Pearl Harbor. I wish it didn't take something as terrible as the events of the 11th to bring out the unity and compassion we had for each other on the 12th. The United States was as united as I have ever seen it in my 50 years on this rock.
I'll have to disagree with your gloomy outlook. I saw people forget their differences and come together to help one another all across the country. I'm sure there were a few people who just shut up for awhile but I saw a lot more who came together and actually helped others.we weren't united . we just shut up about our differences for one day.
most not so much out of respect but because they were glued to their t.vs hoping more might die. the 15th everyone went right back to hating each other .
now almost 20 years later half the nation couldn't even tell you what occurred on 911 and half of those who could , don't really care .
agree to disagree.
I just don't believe in reminising over fiction.
it's been my experience that most people ,generally love to see others in distress, so long as those others are not among their own friends and loved ones . in fact, more often then not, they don't even mind seeing their friends and loved ones suffering.
Maybe it's just your age that makes your perception that way.all crowds are miserable. it is simply the human condition.
