these reporters amaze me......how do they remain so calm....I would be crying my eyes out.....they must be tough as nails to be reporting live and not lose their mind

9/11/2001 11:58:47 AM

I broke down when I saw the two towers collapse. I couldn't believe I saw 20,000 people die. It's just too overwhelming to think about.

What I saw today is something I will never forget.

We have to change the world we live in people. We can't let this happen.

9/11/2001 11:58:58 AM

9/11/2001 11:59:25 AM

9/11/2001 12:01:17 PM

Guys, don't be scared... if you are scared... THEY HAVE WON. Think about it... nobody is going to want to fly anymore... nobody is going to want to go into a public important place. They have made you afraid to live your normal lives. DON'T LET THEM WIN. We're Americans damnit. We're some of the most resilient, stubborn people history has ever come across. Our past is marked by hardships and tragedies. This will be a day to live in memory, but it will also be a day remembered as the day when America woke up, and realized that our sheltered lives that we have been living is all just a fragile house of cards. A house of cards that needs to be protected with every resource at our disposal.

9/11/2001 12:01:22 PM

i'm ready to leave......forget ND, lets go to canada

9/11/2001 12:01:22 PM

Very well said Maugan

9/11/2001 12:02:27 PM

"oh Canada"

9/11/2001 12:02:29 PM

can't you check his flight reservations on aa.com?

9/11/2001 12:02:57 PM

This will absolutely change the rest of our lives.

9/11/2001 12:03:14 PM

tad... that's very true, a good point.

9/11/2001 12:03:41 PM

i want to go home break out my rifles and shoot some f*ckin terrorists

9/11/2001 12:03:45 PM

there's a plane missing in KY....ABC just confirmed this

9/11/2001 12:03:51 PM

Maugan that was outstanding.

9/11/2001 12:04:23 PM

grrrrrrrrrrreat thats where my family is.... this is nuts! so sad that EVERYONE is in some way going to be affected

9/11/2001 12:04:23 PM

What Maugan said is very poetic and probably true, but I can't help it. I am scared. I am terrified.

9/11/2001 12:04:37 PM

yeah they said that they lost them in radar

9/11/2001 12:04:45 PM

i agree wholeheartedly, Gamecat

(p.s...I'm talking with Shawnee...hope you don't mind)

9/11/2001 12:04:45 PM

Thank you Maugan...

Every generation has had to experience something in this form... Pearl Harbor, JFK assasination, etc... Something that is absolutely beyond belief... We can't just live in fear that its going to happen to us, cause then you let them win... We're going to mourn our losses, and vow to never forget what has happened today... And make sure we find those responsible and make them pay... And then, we shall rebuild and find a way to use this tragedy to become a stronger people... To stop taking our safety for granted...

9/11/2001 12:04:55 PM

nationalism....all the way....we could use it right now

9/11/2001 12:05:36 PM

I just saw the palestinians celebrating on the streets. The rejoice over our tragedy. I hope we bomb the ever living fuck out of that street and every man women and child that fucking threw candy in the air like its a fucking parade. I know I sound harsh, but their is no need to celebrate the death of that many people.

9/11/2001 12:05:53 PM

Maugan you have a great point....and i fully agree.

we all need to just live and relax.

but i for one say be with your family.

I am from NYC, that was my home, i have seen that sight for my whole life...and now

9/11/2001 12:06:16 PM

The Atlantic Fleet has moved to threat condition Charlie (one down from top)

9/11/2001 12:06:46 PM

that is so sick... could you imagine the american people celebrating after bombing and killing a bunch of innocent people? those people deserve to have their country destroyed.

9/11/2001 12:07:04 PM

Just last spring break I was looking through the bonoculars on the Empire St bldg at the WTC. I can't believe that they're no more

9/11/2001 12:07:42 PM

roguewolf: yes, this is a time to be with family and friends...

but at the same time, a little patience and calmness is need to make sure we don't rush ourselves into more problems... thats all i meant...

9/11/2001 12:07:53 PM

WHOA. They just said the military is at the same state of alert that they would be at if we were at war.

9/11/2001 12:07:56 PM

rogue, i feel your pain....all my family lives right over the bridge in NJ

9/11/2001 12:07:58 PM

no shit, xl. They're supposed to be human, but if they celebrate this kidn of destruction, they are not. They are NOT HUMAN with that kind of reaction. Bomb the whole area and don't fucking look back.

Arafat says he's "horrified." That's great, yassar. now tell your people that.

9/11/2001 12:08:34 PM

In addition to what Maugan said, I want to encourage people not to freak out and blame any person of Middle East descent for this. Don't start acting scared or angry at someone just because they have ties to the Middle East. And for heaven's sake, don't attack them or damage their property in retaliation for the attack. Chances are, they are just a normal person and aren't responsible for what happened in any way. If you we start treating these people different because of this, they've beat us that way.


Would you like to be held responsible for every bad thing that any white (or black or whatever your ethnic background happens to be) person does?
