September 11th, 2001. Do you remember that day? Did you know that today was the anniversary of this tragedy? Did you remember that the first crash into the first world trade center tower was at 9:03am? At 9:40a.m. The Pentagon was hit. Do you remember those brave men and woman on Flight 93 who took down that plane in Pennsylvania? Did you know that once the day ended and the smoke cleared that hundreds of men, woman and children cried because they were unsure a loved one made it out? In the end over 2,749 died, and they still keep finding particles from bodies and work hard to find the identities of the loved ones lost. The firefighters themselves lost 343 men trying to save those people. The police force was hit just as hard. Did you hear the news with the people thinking the government planed all this? Or the ignorant words of young people and others, obviously unaffected by the attacks, saying going to war was wrong. That protecting our people was wrong. That preventing more attacks like this was wrong. Did you know that people go around ignorantly not giving one damn bit of respect to the fallen. I have heard things like, ‘They did it to themselves’. Or, ‘It was over dramatized’. I feel my trust in the American people dwindle after hearing such despicable things. What about those people who attack out men and woman overseas? Calling them murderers and saying they are there for all the wrong reasons. Maybe this people who speak should have been the ones running as the buildings came down. Screaming as the heard a loved one was dead. Or maybe be the one overseas looking at the people we are protecting. You can ask any man and woman who is in our armed forces. They know why they are there… And though we have people that criticize, spit, and reject the men and woman of America; they still risk their lives to give those ignorant people the right to speak their mind, and in my opinion waist their breath. As time goes on I wonder if this will be a distant memory. If the real picture would be remembered, maybe one day, but for now those who answered yes to those questions are the only ones left. Tell the story. Remember.

PS: I really don't care what your opinion is if you agree or disagree. But if your going to comment negatively do it smartly. I got friends gone and family that was way to lose to that building when the south tower came down. So don't go saying I don't understand. Because unlike most of America I had family in that building. I was just lucky she got out.
