If, a week ago,someone were to come up to you and tell you that the World Trade Center would be destroyed, how would you have reacted, then and now.

I just thought it would be an interesting thing to consider.

You know I'm not really sure...I am still in such a state of shock that it is hard to comprehend what has happened. I don't think I would believe it if someone told me this a week ago. I have never ever seen anything remotely disturbing in my entire life. It is hard to think about the subject even. I have this permanent knot in my stomach because of all of this, and I don't know when it will go away...surely not anytime soon...

ISmellFine · 09-12-2001, 07:07 PM

If someone had come up to me and told me...I probably would have ignored them and thought they wre total idiots. But when this happened...I would have FREAKED OUT!!!

On April 24, 2008, Dana and I are going to meet in LA and handcuff ourselves to Nancy McKeon and Jay Harrington, and you're not. And by the way...this is our own original idea and we do not appreciate people copying us. So don't.

Jinny: Oh, come on, folks, please, don't be shy. Apparently anyone is welcome to crap all over me tonight, so please, step right on up!

Freddy: Now your gonna need a nut doctor!

Darrell: Listen, I don't know what kind of greasy, rubber ***** your sleepin' with...

Same here. I swore yesterday that I'd end up with an ulcer the size of a grapefruit.

I wouldn't have believed them...but if I could go back 48 hours in time i would have:
told Ginger not to go to work
Told Mrs. Z, Mr. C and Mr. MK not to go to work that day
told Beth not to go to school that day
murdered the hijackers the night before

I don't know, Columbine was pretty damn disturbing as well.

Sounds like an episode from Early Edition Max! If I would've found out, I would've contacted my local news stations(WNBC, WCBS, WABC) and told them--they could've spread the word possibly but in reality, who would've thunk it?

Indeed, but you must not have seen the tapes of the aftermath of lower Manhattan...this makes even the Oklahoma City Bombing pale in comparison. More dead here than Columbine.

I would've thought they were joking. I didn't know about this until after i went to school yesterday. my friend came up to me she was all, "did u hear there might be a world war 3??" or something like that and i was sure she was pulling a joke.Yeah if someone had come up to me and told me the World Trade Center had collapsed, i wouldn't have believed them.

More then Pearl Harbor, and it'll be giving D-Day a run for its money.

A day that will never be forgotten because WE will not let it be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the friends and families involved in these horrendous acts against humanity. They will NEVER be forgotten. We will NOT let the terrorists cause terror all across our great nation. We will continue, and we WILL survive.

To those that lost their lives September 11, 2001: Vaya con Dios!

Columbine was disturbing, but was not even close to what I feel about this. I am so enraged. just figured with the kids in Columbine, they had bad parents or something. It was sad that kids act like that, but what was it, 13 people or something? We're dealing with predictions of over 5,000 dead! This is beyond disturbing. It has just left me numb. And violent, which is very important since I am a pacifist. I hope we bomb some country back to the stone ages in retaliation for this.

Why? So we can kill thousands of innocent people who had absolutely NOTHING to do with the attack? That would make us just as bad as the terrorists.

JoPol_wannabe · 09-13-2001, 01:49 PM

Lets just focus on getting whoever put this operation together like they said if it is Bin Laden we have to be sure that when we attack that we go in there and get him right away.

I would have done the same thing I did Tuesday go crazy. I was going to break at Vockie school and I was coming back with my food and Mrs Dehearte my teacher told me that the Pentagon had been blown up and I went crazy. We got to watch it on tv.

I agree! That would make us just as bad as them, and a lot of nations would turn against the USA, and there are more of them, then there are of us. Think of all the nations with Nuclear Weapons!
