Re: Is anybody else sick of all of the 9/11 garbage?
The thing that gets to me is that the media and apparently lots of liberals in NYC only remember what happen on the 9/11 anniversary date. Every other day it's badmouthing those that want to keep the country safe, or claim there's too much spending on defense (even though that's one of the few explicit gov't responsibilities spelled out in the Constitution), etc. Seems the NYC'ers though learned nothing....vote in Bloomberg that wants to restrict guns even more though 46 were killed in 3 days, allow a mosque near ground zero and not allow clergy at the 9/11 commemoration but imams are ok. Sheez.

I'd be more impressed if the attention was being given to the 6200+ men and women killed during Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. While there were many victims and heroes on that tragic day, for me it's those who went to foreign lands to defend this great country after the attack that are more deserving. 9/11 was one horrible day in this nation's history, but the war on those who attacked us that morning has been going on for almost ten years. It is those in the military who answered the call to arms and who have voluntarily made the ultimate sacrifice...

True, M2 - but our Armed Forces know what they're signing up for when they join. On the morning of September 11th, 2001, 3,000 folks were guilty of nothing more than going about their normal daily lives.
Before anyone jumps on the above, bear in mind that I served, one of my sons served (and, in fact, was on active duty when this went down), and that I more than respect and venerate our military personnel. But in this instance, those that were killed - and those that tried to rescue them - deserve more than the circus sideshow the media is turning this into.

One other thing to add.....if ANYONE thinks that this date isn't special to the anti-christ spawn that thought it up, think again. I WILL be out and about Sunday - but I'll be armed while I am, and definitely on a heightened sensitivity to my surroundings.

My biggest fear after that day was that eventually people would forget the feeling of sorrow and disdain for the enemy that just about every felt for months after. I don't like the money grubbing media cashing in on it, but that's what they do. We need to keep this event in mind at all times.

I was in the Marine Corps in 1983 during the Beirut bombing, and I remember how quickly this country forgot those men who died that October 23rd. I submit that if the people who died on 9/11 had been all service members this country would have long forgotten.

Hell, TRN, I would say that the fact that they volunteered to go face this country's enemy's makes them more worthy of the recognition than those who were simply "victims" on that tragic day. While there were many heroes who went into the buildings trying to rescue people, but the vast majority of those who perished where just unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time...

My friend, it's apples and oranges. Put it this way - when I sell a system to J.Q. Public, they pay the price. When I sell one to an active-duty military person, they get 10%. I don't advertise it, I don't promise it to 'em - I simply deduct that amount on the invoice when I present it to 'em. It ain't to "earn" their business - it's to honestly give them a little something back. So, yeah - I'll never forget 9/11, nor those we lost. But I'll always mourn and hold dear those lost sending a message to the ones responsible for it.

this.
I ain't forgot it. I remember the sound of bodies hitting the roof of some area under the WTC's. Our countrymen choosing to jump rather than burn alive, Hell no, I'll never forget. Death to our enemies, death to their relatives, death to their friends and neighbors, death to their livestock, death to the parasites that infest their damned bodies.

Don't see it your way. It is to easy to forget and just move on. Remembering our fellow Americans is reminds us that we must prevail against the evil that wants to kill as many of us as possible. We need to fight on not move on.

Sick of it? NO! Forget? NO! Sick of PC feelgood hug a jihad and let 'em build a mosque? HELL YES!
Remember always. I'll never forget the sick in the pit of my gut feeling of that day. I wish I could be as ignorant now as I was then.
I had very limited knowledge of muslims, jihad, al queda, etc....

We need to remember this tragic event. We need to use this event to educate our children and grandchildren about the threat of radical Islam. Unfortunately, the memorial in NYC has been hijacked by politicians and promoted by commerical interests to increase market share and profits.

Re: Is anybody else sick of all of the 9/11 garbage?
I am sick of it. Have been for a long time.
I despise the "party atmosphere" they are creating.
I despise the companies holding "9/11 Sales, discounts,etc." and other forms of profiting from it.
and I am sick of grieving family members on TV, etc. Yes it was tragic, but you won the lottery financially, and the soldier with no legs or who is dead, his family got nothing, so STFU.

Re: Is anybody else sick of all of the 9/11 garbage?
I remember when people were complaining that the media wasnt talking enough about it and refused to show the video of the planes hitting the towers. When the president didnt want us to use the term "terrorist", when it was no longer a "war" on terror and became a "contingency operation". Now that the pendelum has swung the other way we are complaining about that too.
How fickle we are.
