Well, see, my dad and I were talking today...and my dad said that if you want to remember 9/11 in your own private way, that's fine.
__________________But as a nation...devoting the entire day to coverage of the event will only get the terrorists out there even more excited...that's what they want is for us to make a big deal over that day, it's giving them the attention they wanted. Angela |

Re: 9/11: The most over-rated thing ever?
Quote:
it is a disgrace the way on sep11th all the papers had like "12page pullouts on the day the world changed from your sharing caring newspaper". Bullshit. they just want to sell more papers. i also dont agree with the word "overrated". there are americans attacking each other on the streets every day, murders robbery, rapes. But we dont see this on tv-"out of sight, out of mind" anyone?? also, even tho americans have every right to feel violated or whatever, this indignation is disproportionate to the indignation felt at the stuff that goes on there every day on the streets. What, so its ok for americans to do shit to each other but not other people?? and nobody ever mentions the stuff america did to afghanistan etc. but it was a horrible horrible tragedy, the lives of thousands of INNOCENt people were destroyed. And therein lies the tragedy. |

I think anthony should win a FYM award on this forum. No matter how he feels, he always tries (I think) to look at both sides of the situation. He sometimes seems like a ref on here. He is one of the only people here that can sort things out between two sides. Get what I mean?

yeah sometimes a ref needs to come in and stop a fight when one side is getting beaten up so badly

It is the media that determines the impact of a tragedy.
And the fact is that 11th September 2001 was the biggest news story since the end of World War II. |
