ya it' 01. and it's really not something to be spoken lightly about. I watched a movie in Social Studies today, and the camera man was inside Tower 1, the second one to fall, he and his brother was making a documentary on New York firefighters. It was the saddest thing ever. There were thuds, and shattering, and you knew it was people jumping from the building, and dying right then. They were so scared, and sure they were going to die. debris was everywhere. When Tower 2 collasped, people and firefighters were inside. The firefighters headquatered in Tower 1 didn't know what happened, just that something fell and that they couldn't get out, debris was blocking it. Their priest who married all of them died of a heart attack. When they got out, they looked up and thought they just couldn't see Tower 2 because of the smoke. But it was gone. When they found out, they couldn't believe it. And the other brother taped it falling it was... terrible. Just terrible. Just one by one the stories fell, boomboomboomboomboom. seriously, i'm not trying to be funny. and a big cloud of ash and debris came, and people were running, their faces were horrifying, just gray from ash and full of terror. Before that the people on the street were so scared and confused. And when the firefighters from Tower 1 got out, they were walking with that collapsed as well. The camera man just started running, everything was all rocky and jerky, then the cheif pushed him onto the ground behind a car and threw himself on top of him so the debris wouldn't hurt him. everything was all black and scary, when he got up it was all gray, everywhere, people were coughing and choking from the smoke. When the two brothers who were taping it got back to the firestation, they thought the other one was dead, and when they say each other, when the firefighters realized everyone from their building was alive... they were crying and hugging, it was so sad and touching. But seriously guys. Thousands of people died. Thousands. Bad doesn't even describe this.
Sorry I ranted so much. I haven't even said half of what i'd like to say about the movie and what happened. I just feel so strongly about this, because my dad is a Firefighter, what if he was there? And he's a retired Navy Seal that got recalled to Iraq... People's families died, and they never got to see them again. the fire chief's brother died. It's just so mind boggling how evil evil can be.
I'll stop now. But seriously guys. Think about it.

oh wow allie, did that take you awhile:D
I knowMy US history teacher told of how the students saw a live feed of it on the TV and when the tower fell they were like "COOL!" Instantly he speaks up and goes, "Thousands of people just died there. You just saw thousands die. That's not cool."
Or something like that. Same idea.
not really. i type fast. but seriously. i'm not in a :D mood, sry i don't want to be mean but really.
it was not cool. I would scream if someone said that and bite their head off, figuratively. when we watched the video and the plane hit the first tower, one of the firefigthers was like "Holy S***! Holy S***! Holy F****** S***!" and a girl laughed. My teacher was like "It's not funny." and i was seriously shaking. she is kinda my friend, but i wanted to throttle her. how could she laugh???
it's ok.
uh, i want to send ashmoon a friend reguset(spelled wrong:D)but it always asks for her fav. name! I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT HER FAV. NAME IS!!!!! please tell me

ya, she's kinda my friend... sorta, i talk to her a lot but not really close. but one of my other closer friends wasn't even said. I was just like, "How can you not be freaking sad?!" which is pretty intense for me, and she just shrugged, and i didn't go into it but kinda ignored her, i was sooo mad. i would b so mad if that happened to me!
and i don't kno about ashmoon...
and i don't kno about ashmoon...
what time is it where you are?
I know this guy whose dad was about to have a meeting in one of the twin towers on that exact day, but they changed it at the last minute. Yeah, I remember watching it when I was little. It was so scary...My dad was on his way to the school for teaching or something and my mom called him and was all like, "Go watch the television right now!!" And yesterday we had this ceremony at school or something in memory of the people who died on that day and everything...
what time is it where you are?
it's like, 9:00pm where i am
where do you live? i live in california
oh that's so sad helen!!! I'd be crying if i was him, the dad. I didn't get what was going on... I was 6. we were all lying in my parent's bedroom, watching their t.v... i didn't know what was happening, but mom and dad were so sad. My cousin was in a building next to it, her boss told her to stay when the plane first hit, but she left anyway, i think that building eventually fell.
you mean you live in California?
uh, i was in target when it happened,the nine eleven stuff, and they made an announcement saying there was a terrorist bombing in the united states abd we were told to leave the building, that was scary.
ya,SoCal

:D i also have a crush on this guy in l.a. his dad and my dad are life long friends, the have known each other since kindergarden! me and they guy i have a crush on have known each other our whole lifes!!
9/11/01 was serously freaky. I was watching a cartoon, and my mom changed the channel to check the weather. We saw it happen.........uhg, scary.
Yeah, 9-11 is so sad...More than that. Way more than just 'sad', but. Has anyone heard the song 'Have you Forgotten'? It describes how I feel about it. Excatly.But I think alotta people in America have forgotten. They don't think about it anymore, and they forget about it when they say the war should stop.
9-11 should never be forgotten. Ever.
Yeah, I was in my 2nd grade class watching some video, and about to go to lunch. Then I had an early dismissal. I had no idea why, but my folks were flippin' out. We raced inside, and they were watching Tv.
I didn't care--I was only 7. But now, I understand. I mean, terroist were attacking. Sure, no one would have attacked our little town in NC, but you never know. There could have been another plane that fell, like the one in PA.
Yeah, now that I know, it scares me. When my mom tells me about what happened, it scares me.
But yeah, this should never be forgotten.
I agree with you sandstorm. America has forgotten how upset they were. Some even question why we remember this day. We remember Pearl Harbor don't we? Well I only can remember so much about that day:
I was getting ready for school like any other day. I went into my parent's room to do my hair or something like that. My mom had the news on. All I saw was a building with a ton of smoke. I asked my mom many times what happened, but she didn't answer. I rode to school in silence. At school, we started to learn and then we were called to go down to the big flag in the middle of my school grounds. We all said a bunch of patriotic stuff including the pledge. Everyone was pretty sad. We attempted learning that day, but my teacher was completely off focus. I learned the whole story the next day. I felt pretty bad.

Ya like i said, i don't really remember, but i also didn't really care. i was six. if i was in new york, then, i still probably wouldn't care, i'd complain that the smoke hurt my eyes or whatever. But if i was there and i was the age i am now... i would be so sad. i'd be like freaking out and crying i mean... like you said. it's more than sad. it's like the holocaust, not as bad, but very very bad. and no one should ever forget either of them. i was in the other side of the coutnry, so we didn't like skip school or go home early but i just remember my teacher was sad that day...
Yeah, I knew exactally what happened when I got home. I was in FIRST GRADE and I didn't really understand. I do now, and I totally understand that a lot of people died, and what Allie said before was really sad. My school(s) never really did anything but a moment of silence, and I wish I could do more.
We do that. At 8:46, EST, we have a moment of silence. It was when the first plane hit. But yeah, everybody was freaking out. Ones who could understand.And remember, it hit the petagon, too. It was aiming for the White House or Capital Building... Horrible day. I hope it won't happen again, but I think it will. May not be tomorrow, or next year, but it will happen again. It scares me, but...
