I know first hand what terrorism is. I worked the OKC Murrah Bldg. bombing in 1995. It boggles my mind to think what my NYC brothers must have went through on 9/11.

Hey IM744,

Thank you for the correction, 7 years not 6 years.
Personally I am torn on this date each year, sad on one hand and joyous on the other.
My first grand daughter was born on 9-11-02, one year later, hence the mix up on the 6 years.

All who are Patriots will never forget.

Remember that not all attacks on our Country are swift, deadly and violent.

Some are slow, methodical, and disguised as something else.

God Bless the Victims and Heroes of 9-11

God speed to all those lost, NYC, DC, flight 93, and all the previous from Oklahoma and the attack in 93 by the blind f*ckstick shiek (I was there and working on the NYSE that day in 93).

I'm always angry and sad with an overwhelming desire to kill some cowardly ****** that are hiding in the deserts and mountains on this day. We lost 26 parents just in my town alone, from the world trade centers attack. I've lived in North Jersey my whole life and worked in Manahatten for 14 yrs - and to this day, it's still not ok inside of me when I'm riding down 78 on my old Jersey City FLHT Police Glide and look to the skyline and see that the Towers are not there.

I worked in the towers on and off during my 14 yrs in the city, so did my dad (rip). The Sunday after it happended -I was called in to by the Cisco emergency response team to lead a group of architects and engineers to rebuild the Bank of NY (oldest bank in the Nation and it was seriously wiped out infrastructure-wise). I saw first hand the devestation and destruction caused by those f*cks. God bless the firemen, police, EMS, red cross folks and the folks that were there ! What they endured at that time and the sickness caused long afterwards is just brutal.

Wish they would rebuild the towers and make three of them, with the one in the middle the tallest...

Over here in Afghanistan right now. Never have, never will forget. Won't forget the lives lost on this day 7 years ago, nor the lives we've lost being deployed since.

Its a sad day for all and we all understand the the what was sacrificed on this day 7 years ago, we should all take a moment to really think about what this day is about, we should all remember the people who were lost on this day, take a moment to think about what really was sacrificed, think of your children, your wife and family,your freedom think about we have so much because others gave, we are able to sit at our computers and talk about the things we love and enjoy life, get on your bike stop at a firehouse, or see a cop, or in any case any emergency woker and of course our men and women who serve and served and just say thank you, and then take a long ride because you can! If we all exercise our freedom than this date will not always be remebered in vein! and remember show your colors (Red,White,Blue) and not just today but everyday!

We can never forget, the pain ans suffering of families will be felt for years to come, The Children of parents who were killed will be the politicans of the future, they will never for get and they will tell their grand children. The Quiet ones didn;t forget, the suffer alone.
God Bless the USA and the families who still make the ultimate sacifices everyday in our Armed Forces
