 9/11
Ok, lets talk about 9/11. First, this was a horrendous event and if you lost anybody in it, my deepest and most sincere sympathies go out to you. BUT THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT HEROES they where just in the wrong place at the wrong time. The didn't do anything heroic, they just died. And I think it is incredibly insulting and demeaning to those people who really are heroes. Now I'm not talking about the Firemen, Police, Rescuer Workers, people like that, who might have died trying to save someone; I talking about Joe Shmuck just sitting in his office. HE IS NOT A HERO, he was just unlucky. If I had a Granddad that got killed taking out a German pillbox to save his platoon I'd be really pissed that these people were called heroes. Why is it if one person is killed it's "oh, well"; but if a couple hundred are killed it's a tragedy and they're all heroes - fuck that. If one person is killed it is just as much a tragedy, but just getting killed doesn’t make you a hero. Same with the people on the planes; if they tried to take out the terrorists they would be heroes, if they just set there pissing their pants – THEY ARE NOT HEROES.

Wow 20 views and no posts, I guess everyone is scared to voice their own opinion. But I do have to agree with you. Its todays society that has destroyed the title of hero. Society wants to believe these people as heros because it sounds noble, brave, more vivid then "people who died" or "innocent bystandards". For example, you used to go to a car dealership which went through an inspection and you could buy a used car. Now you go to a car dealership and you get the same car, the same inspection but it is now called certified preowned. WTF!? it just sounds better, but its stupid it is exactly the same. A different title changes the view people have on something. So it is aggirvating to hear that those who were killed in a sucker punch from the middle of nowhere Hero's but instead should be called people who were killed by fags, when they just couldnt deal with there own issue but instead had to kill many friends and families so they can be loved by "Allah" or whatever. But seriously, I have a few friends whos relatives were killed that day, and all I can say to comfort those is that that the people who did this will not live an eternal life of glory but instead will burn in Hell. I wish none of this would have happened, but it did, and I shouldnt wish for such senile things. God Bless.
