Author Topic: I'm going to a 9/11 memorial.  (Read 4735 times)



My god, people are killed all the time.
In the last nine years, there have been more murders than people who died that day.
Almost a decade after and people are still making a big deal about it.

Eat a bowl of richards, 1 day> 9 years

Poor you, you have to go honor the innocent people who were brutally killed as a result of a terrorist attack!

I never said I didn't want to go.

More people have died in the last nine years than that day.
And the length of time of one day is also shorter.
So in what way is one day more than nine years?

I never said I didn't want to go.
Tomorrow, I gotta go to a memorial service for the people who died in 9/11 at the high school next door. What's stranger, I have to go on the TENTH, not the ELEVENTH. They could easily hold the memorial service on Saturday for a couple hours, but I won't complain. Atleast I get to miss English and Math.
Discuss.

Sorry, your wording just sounded a little snobby.

More people may have died within 9 years, but in that one day the whole nation watched as two planes crashed into the Twin Towers and another into the Pentagon. Then, as the Towers fell, even more innocent lives were lost. That day is more emotional than one person dying, even thought that too is sad.

One day, 3000+ people die in the worst way imaginable.
9 years, 10,000+ die in the most typical ways.

I'm not saying that the deaths over nine years aren't sad, but those three thousand people were living lives to the fullest, and one day those lives are just plain GONE. It's probably the saddest day I've ever witnessed.

Oh, sorry. I just realized. I can go change the wording a bit.

The significance of that day is why it is remembered. While no death is above another, the mass amount of deaths and of how many mourned makes it hard to forget; The fact so many joined together despite the intentions of that event to be just the opposite. That even through a difficult time, considering the sadness, the mortal loss, not to mention the financial loss, people still gave their own time and in some cases their own lives to help another.

Most of that, too. :o

I'm not saying that it wasn't a bad thing, and that people shouldn't be sad over it, a memorial is nice, but like you said, it's not the first attack on Americans ever.
living lives to the fullest
Lol what if one of them was suicidal.

Touching.

Yes it was, the balloon bombs don't count.

Not to mention, most of NY's finest firemen & policemen went into those two burning buildings to save lives, but never came back out.

Yet you don't even feel sorry? If you went up to a grieving family of an officer that died, would you say,
"Hey, your husband/wife/father/mother died in 9/11. Cool, right?"

I'll be blasting patriotic music on 9/11.
