General Discussion, not necessarily debate, about the WTC tragedy.

I think there is too much hype about it. Yes, I am sad, don't get me wrong, but I want to ground zero last spring and it has turned into a :censored:ing tourist attraction...

Well, the more tourists that come the more money New York makes?
How much money did they lose when WTC collapsed and didnt our economy really get messed up after but we r recovering now.

Heh, thats so funny, but so true

If it happened anywhere else in teh world besides America and maybe europe, there would be not even half that ammount of media attention to the issue

USAs are kinda making a big deal outta it... With their gay project to make even bigger towers... I mean, wasn't that a kindoff warning? You know... Things you shouldn't repeat...

Whatever they do, terrorists are always getting smarter, no matter what, and they'll know how to crash anything else...


BTW does anyone else believe that silly thing about the *insert philosophist guy who predicted the crast 2000 years ago* story? And everything about 11 being 911, 11 = 2 towers, etc... ?

Norstrodomus' (sp?) prediction of the 9/11 event? From what I gather, it was never actually written down. I've read it myself and it's too imprecise, often the bigest problem of any prophecy.

Before evaluating prophecies, or calling Ms. Cleo, you should read this guide on prophecies for dummies:

Well, Its HAS been the largest scaled terrorest attack against the united states EVER. It is something that the us can use to come together against anyone who attacks them.

And i think the fact that its a place for tourists is a way for us to get back some money that we lost and make new york bigger and better than ever
and b4 9/11 you only saw a couple flags hung up maybe on ppls houses, but now I see flags everywhere like one every power line goin down main street

My dad said

"Why the censored.gif are they building bigger towers, they will just knock em down agian"

I sorta agree with him on that
Report, edit, etc...Posted by MapUnprotector on 2004-09-10 at 20:59:44
if they build bigger better towers i think they would have better security with them
and y let some terrorists control us and make us fear them all the time to stop us from making buildings?
and i bet if they made new towers they would be better cause the wtc towers were built like a few decades ago

i dont care about the pledge of allegiance, i like it and i dont think they should leave under god, i mean i dont really mind saying it, i think the whole thing is patriotic and it would just be weird without it cuz its like starting everyday saying it since kindergarten
its like if they had a controversial line in the national anthem do you think they would change it?

I look at Drunken's signature and I think thats what so many people have become. but why would you be called a commie if you didnt support every single action the U.S did ? In that case everyone who ever listened to michael moore and liked even a part of it would be a "commie".

I see the 'terrorists' have worked their acts over you.. Basically you are saying that we should stop doing what we want in out country because of a "potential threat", in other words live in fear that they might attack. interesting.

9/11
was the worst, and best thing that happened to our country

well after 9/11 everyone was sad, and crap like that, BUT ALSO everyone became closer to each other, and the crime in all of usa was cut in 3/4

but either way i think that 9/11 will be remebered forever on

What I'm saying is that in terrorist minds, they couldn't care less to lose men or kill people. Seriously, I don't see what is the point of just remaking the towers just to tell them "see, we're so big that we're gonna make even bigger @*#&s that you can hit!"

Anyway... It was their fault, whatsoever, that they got hit, with all the places he "invaded" without asking.

Making bigger buildings will only lure more attention to them...

You could argue that building larger towers is an act of defiance against terrorism.

You know - a kind of 'We shall not be moved' type thing...

We have like 2,600 nukes... our silos are getting a bit full if you get my drift. wink.gif Maybe we could save some space... and be more efficient at everything we do!

Seriously, every terrorist is a sick mother-:censored:er. If they want to die for Allah or whatever gay God they worship, then they can all blow their brains out for Allah. I don't care. The bastards aren't human as far as I'm concerned. They're also weak, else they wouldn't fight like assho|es. Damn! The stupid biatches should be tortured for chrissake. They deserve it. Whenever you're willing to kill innocent people just to kill innocent people, you should be punished like the mofo you are. I say we let Israel conquer back the Middle East. Would serve the fu.ckers over there right! And, as an added bonus, it would keep the terrorists pre-occupied. Then we could focus on the freaking homeland security thing, which we've bungled up like everything else. And damn, let Russia reconquer some of their Middle East territory too. If I had to choose between letting the Muslim people or the Jewish people die, I'd choose the Muslims. I don't see any Jewish terrorists, do you?

*Edit* I'm not racist, don't have anything against Muslims. Just terrorists. ranting.gif

Letting Israel take back their "due" reward would just cause yet another "threat" to the world and start another war -.-

While at it, letting ANY country invade another will result into the USA interfering with it...
