!!!a plane has crashed into the world trade center building

<< Lay off politics for now.
If we keep bickering between ourself then the terrorist have achieved another goal (dividing us).
Let us just calm down and unite !
the enemy is out there.
We don't know who did this horrible act.
but it might be Palestine and Afganishtan.
so I say just level those 2 countries and be done with.
let's just send them to hell ! >>



WHOA THERE. I mAY NOT BE ARABIC but those are pretty hateful words. it MIGHT be ? jsut cuz it might lets just level them? Palestine has officially deplored this attack. Yassir Arafat himself gave the annoucment. whether this is ploy or not is not clear but atleast its something

mithrandir2001, where did those come from? did you take those? no one is even showing what is going on in DC.

Mo0o,

If nothing else, the thousands of lives lost today have polarized this nation into one which will do anything to become one and not only seek retribution for this act, but also work 100 times harder to recover from it. You, my friend, underestimate again the power of the American populous in these times of tragedy.

---

This terrorist attack is a unique event in U.S. history, well deserving of in depth discussion. However, this thread is getting too long and taking a long time to load. Please continue this discussion here

Please try to keep your discussions on topic and away from hateful rhetoric directed at political, ethnic, etc. groups.

Thank you,

Bump for remembrance.

 

[shortylickens]

Should not have been bumped.
Obviously with all the other threads, no one forgot.

Also interesting that so many posters are now banned.
WTF?

Why not bump it? It's a VERY interesting read into the reactions as the news came out. A piece of history, to be sure. All the shock and fear. All the sadness.

Let it be. Don't lock it please!

Sure this'll be locked, but it was interesting to read the first few pages. I still remember pretty much every detail about that 8th grade schoolday. I don't think we found out until about 11am. Man, that was a long time ago.

Does anybody else watch the footage every 9/11? Still seems so surreal.

 

[TheFlyingSquirrel]

reading the first pages is real interesting
paints a vivid picture of that day

I don't usually, but I'm watching it right now... As you said, it's still shocking.

 

[slayer202]

eery reading the first few pages. goosebumps the whole time.

 

[Shadow Conception]

Good bump.

 

[rcpratt]

Watching this shit makes me want to fucking stab somebody.

Am with you there... Brings all that anger right back...

I wonder how many people who said, "If this is a terrorist attack, I'm going to join the military and fuck them up." actually did...

I agree that this thread shouldn't really have been bumped. It should have been locked forever.

 

[TruePaige]

Kind of a crazy reflection, a 50 page thread from the time it all happened.

It was so long ago (but it feels .. semi-recent).

NO! Why??? Seriously? Lock it and it's lost forever.

I don't understand the logic behind that at all.

I know, right? How great is it to keep this thread and reflect back on it?

 

[Dominato3r]

I was in grade 5 when this happened. Read a few of the first pages, I cannot imagine what must have been going through the heads of people with family & friends in there.

 

[OCGuy]

Amazing thread, just read it all.

It is sad just how fast we have forgotten the emotion of that day. I fear it will take another attack to unite us against the evil that is fundamentalist Islam.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

Damn reading this thread messed me up.

RIP to all those that died and a big thanks to all those that have or are serving in the military.

I won't be the one to lock it. Amused is right that it offers a chance to look back and view it through the eyes of our forum ten years past. If it's locked it becomes lost, just a thread in the dusty past.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

Should be stickied for today.

 

[Malak]

I'm not going to lie, this thread gave me the same feelings I had 9 years ago.

[Woosta]

Damn. I thought this happened again.
