Thought I should mention, that sad as the day was, I don't think it warrants a special holliday...especially if Dec. 7 1941 doesn't.

To immigrate to New Zealand, it's not which sheep you know, it's how well you Know it.
Personally, if that's all it takes, where does the line start? I'd love to be a New Zealander. ![]()

For a bit off topic, the welsh accent is the best
![]() I am not close to the US, i don't get it's politics...the only part I have is delibertly misinterperating Magik's comments [img]tongue.gif[/img] I, for one, will be having a day of silence, no speech, to remember those who died. It is what we in Britain do on the 11th of November, for those who died in the WWs...I feel it is a good way to reflect on the events of the past.

I guess we all have food for thought [/QUOTE]Excuse me but isn't Dubya the one pushing this idea before congress? I think it will give more to the Al-Queada if Sept 11 is named "Patriot's Day" in honor of (quoting Dubya) "those who sacrificed their lives". Since when did being a victim make people sacrifices? They weren't enlisted (*cough*Cole*cough*). I wish I could stay home from school that day (pomp on campus as a tribute in rememberance) but I have classes I have to attend that day. Like Dec 7, 1941, they day should be remembered here, but not marked as some sort of new holiday. There were more countries involved than just America and no shadow should be cast over those who died that day to put America in a more pathetic light, as if we neeed the world's pity. Its sick. I agree completely with what you said Skywalker. Its just sad. |
