On this day millions of Americans are remembering an event that happened 10 years ago.
They're remembering an event but they've forgotten the reason for this day.
It wasn't an organization that attacked us, it was a so-called religion. They didn't attack us to accomplish a short term goal, they attacked us because of who were are.
What is especially disgusting is the fact that people that don't understand islam think that if we give in to their demands, the attacks will stop. Our government is so afraid of "offending" these people that are stuck in the 7th century that they've began repressing us with unreasonable and intrusive searches at airports, an erosion of our civil rights, and constant survelliance while apologizing and exempting the class of people that were responsible for these actions.
Go ahead, Americans. Remember this event and the innocent people that died, but do their memory justice: Remember why this event happened - because their god commands them to kill unbelievers, among others - and remember the people resonsible.
I am certain that on that September day there were angels among us, and I would imagine that they too wept…
ReplyDeleteI’m a big strong guy, but I am not the least bit bothered to tell you, I wept, from anger, from compassion, from a feeling of total helplessness, and yes, even fear, not fear for myself, but fear for my family and their immediate safety…
I was 1,500 miles from home that day and all I could think of was getting home to my wife and making sure my children were safe, and I couldn’t do that…
None of us knew what the future held, we still don’t, but I hope with all my heart that these same angels are with us now…
I can’t speak for all Americans, but I know that I am still hurting, every day that goes by I remember 9-11, and I don’t know if a *healing* will ever take place in me, but I pray for the lives of those affected in an even more direct fashion, I pray for our firefighters, police officer and our troops… I pray that ALL of America will wake up to the dangers around us and unite in an effort to defeat the evils that threaten our lives and freedoms.
No matter where that evil comes from!
I will NEVER forgive and I will NEVER forget!
I love to say this...
ReplyDeleteIf your God believes that killing people is the right thing to do, fuck him, I don't want him.
The truth is...is that radical islam is just a fucking excuse for a bunch of people to behave like the angry, murderous nutjobs that they are.
Amen, bro' - well said.
ReplyDeleteFuck all the ragheads.
ReplyDeleteThe ones running the liquor stores, gas stations, cheaper smoke shops, all of 'em. Not a dime from me.
We have 106 nukes.
Lets spend 15 of 'em.
It occurs to me that in an world-political way, the current president reminds of a certain Neville Chamberlain in his attempts to appease a dangerous people.
ReplyDeleteI hope that the government wakes up to what's being done (and not done) by those who are currently in charge -- and pray that those of us who will vote on Election Day in 2012 will oust those who are giving away the Land of Our Founding Fathers, and return our nation to where it needs to be.
