The firefighters, policemen, rescue people are all heroes because they were running in the towers when everybody else was running out... They tried to go in and save the people in there.

Agreed there... but the rest of the people saying a bunch of shit like... alot of people died that day, whoopee get over it...... I'm sure a bunch of you are from London..... And this isn't trying to be offending to anybody from there... but it's the same as the London Bombings... Next year I'm sure there'll be some sort of memorial service... and that didn't have nearly as much loss of life as 9/11...
On a final note... The amount of mourning is getting less and less every year. There's still publicity about it.... and there are still a few ceremonys... But it's really no different than Pearl Harbor, or any other historical event like that...
