every day people die for worse reasons than political nonsense or religion-discriminating crap. it's not because it's your (not aimed at anyone) big nation that we have to be sad every 11th of September, every year again and again.

they're dead, get over it. unless you lost relatives you shouldn't be whining about it and not about all those other people who die every day.



sorry if this post hurts someone, but it's my point of view and should certainely not be taken in an offensive way

Belgian..

I'm sure there are some things in Belgian history that are often frowned upon as such.

2/3 of them die of natural causes.... These people died many years before they had to because terrorists.

If we go by magnitude we should hold a daily minute's silence for all the jews that were gassed in the second world war. Their suffering was not confined to a single date.

I'd agree... but not everyday... It should have it's own day of the year to mourn for them... and to celebrate the ones who made it out.

I agree with Millenium_edition. Get over it.

I totally forgot about it

No.  Just because people die for worse reasons does not mean we should not take a day (or atleast a moment for Christ sakes) to remember them.  When a family member dies, you always hold a small memorial for them each year (I just did this weekend for a family member), so why is this any different? 

Just because what happened on September 11th didn't effect you personally doesn't mean it didn't effect other people.  Someone lost their father on this day.  Someone lost their mother on this day.  What if it was your father or mother that died?  How easy would it be for YOU to get over it if you saw actually pictures from that day, of your family member falling to their death?  Those thoughts & images imprinted into your brain forever.  I know personally, its something that you never forget. 

For God sakes, for my sake, show some respect.

The attacks shouldn't be remembered with the melodrama that a lot of people do, but more of a feeling of wishing terrorists would just learn that they are being pathetic and are taking peoples lives needlessly.

then why don't we celebrate leonardo da vinci's birthday and funeral every year, because after all, the whole humanity owes him a lot of inventions.
