Kudos to the admins for not locking it at the first site of disagreement. I think adults must learn to agree to disagree and move on with their lives. I have no problem with anyone on this thread and if they have a problem with me, oh well, their loss

... Disappointed, because I got to see how much estrogen has leaked into the American psyche. Simply put, people became whiney, fucking bastards. I, for one, was mildly surprised that it'd taken so long, what with American society being so godfuckingdamned relaxed about such unimportant things as safety, caution, and the fact that just because we're statistically the most obese humans on the face of the earth, doesn't mean we're invulnerable to big, heavy, explosive-filled airplanes landing on our heads.
It's not like Tom Clancy hadn't already written a fictional story about such a thing happening. (I think it might have been titled Debt of Honor - I can't recall at the moment)
Anyone who was surprised by those events had never really let their imaginations run wild, and thought, "Holy fuck, it's possible someone could do that!" So yeah, I thought that people were being dumbasses when they were so shocked and appalled at the events that day. Hey, Hiroshima, it was not. At least it wasn't a nuke. In a way, though, I had to feel sorry for the shocked onlookers, because they obviously had spent a great deal of time hiding under the covers, and didn't have enough raw pessimism - what I often refer to as realism - in their diets.
C'mon, people. Take two big buildings, that had bomb attempts on them previously, and an army of angry militant middle-eastern psychos. Throw them together, and you have every stupid fuck in the country sticking an american flag on their vehicle.
I don't say all of this to belittle the victims of the attack. I say this to belittle those who take offense to seeing things as they actually are. I say this to belittle those who allowed it to happen. And, I say this because those same people are currently running this so-called democracy.

September 10th and before I was notorious for wearing a veitnam military issued all weather jacket with all of the origianal patches that was given to me by my uncle who was in the "conflict". For this I was ridiculed by some people. Like most of the time I let it roll off my back. September 11th rolls around, you know what happend? Every single fucktard buys a flag and the same people who were poking fun the day before were saying how cool it was to show support. I hadn't changed. I felt so angry at the fact that what was patrotic to me 2 days before wasn't good enough but 2 days later was the new trend. Being patriotic isn't a trend, it is a state of mind that we all should have. That is why I speak my mind more now than ever. I got tired of not being heard, even if I am wrong.
