But who cares, it's just petty bickering. If you want to sing the National Anthem and have a personal relationship with God or Allah, I don't think anyone would stop you. Doesn't seem very healthy for a memorial to be about anything other than remembering the loss of life. Filling the emptiness with patriotism and foolish religious pride brings you a few steps closer to the people who attacked the Twin Towers to begin with.
So, since we're generalizing, what are they going to do on 9/11/02 in Texas. Drink Budweiser and lynch black people?
Nope it's hippies this year. The Texas Chamber of Commerce has reached a special deal with SouthWestern Airlines and The Republic of Berkeley for halfprice one way tickets to the festivities. You are strongly encouraged to bring your berkinstocks, peace signs, and all your Anti-American paraphernalia.
