World Trade Center
« on: April 12, 2008, 09:48:16 PM »
I keep thinking and talking about the World Trade Center on 9/11, which happened nearly seven years ago. Okay, I will admit that I talked about New York and World Trade Center before 9/11. Whenever I mention the World Trade Center, people laugh and smile at me, which I personally find it offensive. Perhaps I am overtly sensitive. :( I wish I can stop thinking and talking about the World Trade Center and 9/11. It is not easy to not think about that day when the World Trade Center came crashing down violently onto the streets of New York claiming 2,800 lives.

It is like the festering wound that will not heal. Yes, I know it was a very horrible and dark day we should never forget. Part me of wants to not think about that horrible day, also I do not want to forget. In fact, I feel morally obligated to keep its memory alive. :(  :bawl:

I knew this would happen where the general population would start to forget and I bought a whole bunch of magazines and newspapers at the time and saved them up in case I ever forget.

It's done on purpose too. The news media will go on and on about waterboarding as torture and how humans are evil for creating Global Warming(TM) but they wont play the footage from 9/11.

The lame stream media or legacy media is always at it. Some of their behavior, especially getting national security informations, borders illegal and treasonous.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
