are you going to watch a bunch of 9-11 movies today?

nope, probably just a moment of silence to reflect on the occasionLanceA63

yea, I lit a few candles today to pay my respects to a few people I knew lost family members, but thats about as far as it goes for me.

Though I did go to sleep last night and wake up today knowing it'd be 9/11 and I do feel a bit sad.

When you forget all the politics, conspiracies, and polarizing it did, in the end 9/11 is just a horrible, horrible tragedy, as are all other terrorist attacks big and small

[QUOTE="cpo335"]

[QUOTE="raven_squad"] Which is basically my point. Countless people lose their lives in massive attacks around the world, and yet once it effects America its the greatest tragedy and must be relived annually in the form of online videos? raven_squad

I agree there are so many other tragedies in the world, people are dying nearly everyday in africa?

where is the condolences for em, yet some folks are still so concern about 9/11 but not the other tragedies :|

Nope, why would I want to do that?

[QUOTE="raven_squad"][QUOTE="cpo335"] You're an extremeley selfish person. I can't believe you're actually saying that. 9/11 is arguable the worst attack on American soil in modern history, and you're basically telling it to **** off. Telling the people who died, who risked their lives, and who continue to die/risk their lives in the name of America to **** off. We mourn today because it directy affected ALL of us. Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Japs can mourn that. It happened to them, not us. Not U.S. We mourn on Dec. 7 to pay our respects to those who died. What you're saying is disgusting, unpatriotic, and selfish. I can't believe you.

you cant ask an average joe not belonging that that country to cry for Africa

but you can ask an African, descendents of Africans, and politicians and activists involved with Africa

not trying to be harsh. And certainly not being disrespectful; I agree that what is occuring over there, and all over the globe, is horrible.

Just saying that, as an American, I dont expect anyone else to really mourn 9/11 except Americans and others brought into the tragedy. Conversely, I dont mourn the bombing of the train station in Madrid but I dont shrug my shoulders and go "who cares?" either

I watched one yesterday; 9/11: The Falling Man.

I watched the movies, and the programs and such a few years after it happend, but 8 years has passed and I just don't think I can watch them all over again.

I watched tribute ceremonies to the victims this morning, but it pisses me off how each yeah MSNBC shows the footage as it happened, so I watched CNN.

[QUOTE="x-2tha-z"]I can't believe some of the comments that have been posted in this topic. It's disgusting that people can suggest this event doesn't matter because it happened eight years ago. The 9/11 attacks should never be forgotten. The people who died should be remembered and the bravery of those who tried to help should be honored. I watched the attacks on the towers and their collapse live on TV in the UK on 9/11 2001. I've never been to America and I don't know anyone who lives there but what I watched on tv that day had a big impact on me. To this day when I see footage of the planes flying into the buildings or people falling from the towers or the towers collapsing, it still has a very powerful impact on me, as much today as it did in 2001. No, I wouldn't say the event has got "old". Some of you should show some damn respect. Almost 3000 people lost their lives on that day. I don't think it's too much to ask to take a day or a moments silence to remember what happened, to remember those that died and the family members left behind without as much as a body to bury.raven_squad

Eh, I might watch the documentary.

I'm not american, but today it's the "conspiracy theory: 9/11 inside job" session in the local channel! :P

ps: My respect to the victims of the 9/11 :(

ps2: I love conspiracy theories. :D

The Delta Force starring Chuck Norris!

I watch this movie on every 9-11 day!:roll:
