Just because you think it didn't affect you personaly doesn't mean you need to be a dick to everyone else who does care.

It affected EVERY single person in this country. We are ALL now in more debt because of it.

I have spent countless more hours of my life in the airport because of it.

And if the dems in this country weren't such ******s about offending people it would be a lot easier to prevent some of this shit in the future (illegals / border security).

Oh yeah they also need to cut funding to countries that hate us.....Pakistan and China.
 
I was within 2 miles of Chicago O'Hare, on my way to work when the first plane hit. The next couple of days were really strange, without anything except the occasional fighter jets in the sky. That just does not happen around O'Hare.

One of the things that still irritates a few people is how the Red Cross behaved afterwards, in regards to blood donations. Considering the scale of the attacks, there were far more fatalities than injuries. My g/f was working in a community blood bank at the time, and there just were no calls being made to ship in blood or blood products to New York. Meanwhile, the Red Cross is saying "WE NEED BLOOD! WE NEED BLOOD!" Every single blood bank in the country was inundated with donors. I spent an afternoon at the blood bank, doing data entry to help them keep up.

45 to 60 days later........ a lot of that donated blood expired. It hadn't been used. Or called for. Not only that, the blood banks were simply full. No capacity for any more storage. The donor lines were having to explain to donors "No, we can't take your donation. We don't have room for it. Yes, we know what the Red Cross says. We simply don't have room."

Having said all of that.... DONATE if you can. Not just during a national disaster. Just.... donate.

LOOK, I wasn't being a dick to anyone & I appoligized ahead of time if I offended anyone. As for YOU being in more debt because of 9-11, I call BS. Thats like saying ( I can't buy a gun cause of the Colorado chit) no you can't buy a gun cause you can't pass a background check. ( I'm more in debt know cause of 9-11), no, it's cause you live a life you can't afford & people think they don't have to pay their bills. Maybe let the government pick your slack. This is no way directed to you personnally.

It must bother the shit out of you because you ramble on and on about it, intentionally trying to rile people up. just leave it be.
If you want to pick a real fight, go on to here and start your shit.

I personally am pretty much debt free, except for my house.

When I say every single one of us are in debt I am referring to the $16,000,000,000 this country owes. Who do you think is going to pay that, it will be every single one of us?

And when I say you are being a dick I am referring to your insensitivity to the subject.

Another vote for you being kind of dickish about this.

Personally I think people remembering this event by posting pics and videos of that day is great. I was soooooo pissed when the major networks decided to quit showing photos and videos of the towers coming down.

For a few weeks after that event we were actually one, undivided nation. Everyone was on the same side. We were mad, hurt, shocked and we all wanted revenge. It wasn't long before the more "sensitive" types wanted to forget. They wanted to bury their heads in the sand and pretend it never happened at all. To me that attitude was almost as much of a tragedy as all the lives that were lost that day.

IMO even though it was eleven years ago today we should still be just as pissed, shocked and hurt as we were the day it happened. Vigilance might keep it from happening again.

you REALLY don't want to get into 16.5's, they are really getting phased out & if you get a flat out in the middle of nowhere, your not gonna find one in a pinch. Kinda like looking for a 13 inch tire, no makes them anymore.

there are about a million other reasons to stay the hell away from 16.5s, too. #1 being the lack of a safety bead, #2 through #9999 are also the lack of a safety bead.

My face book clog's up when the Bears are on, or when there is police activity within 30mils of someone, or when there is a damn cloud in the sky, just deal with it or don't log on your facebook.

9/11 was an attack on our country and affected peoples lives. if nothing else you had to be a little worried they come hit closer to home right?

where the hell do you want someone making 6 figures to work?? some 1 story office building in downtown suburbia??? they work where the money is obviously. that day cops died, that day firemen died, since then soldiers died, one thing that they all have in common is they have a scary job and could end up dead any day of the week, but the joe blow that was mopping the bathroom floor that day...he had no idea it would be the last day of his life. the argument he had with his wife that morning about not folding the laundry last night, he might have apologized before he went off to his boring janitor job had he know there was a chance he would be attacked at work.

it was a terrible day and out of 365 days you could just dealing with people trying not to forget one of the scariest moments to hit homeland.



SAM'respect the dead weather it affected you or not'SET
