...there was going to be a discussion about this. It is inevitable Mr Anderson. This will also inevitably be in the playground at some point.
So I've made this thread so you can discuss murrica, wackjob conspiracy theories, and towel-heads without intruding into the other threads.

Merry 9/11!

But really it was awful. People died.

One big cluster**** there.
They were BANGING ON THE SHELTER WINDOWS to get in!
To god, WHY!WHY!WHY!WHY!WHY!

Despite the horrible things that happened on this day, it was hard not to lol at MNB's picture.

10 years ago, at the same day, we bought "new" car, Blue Toyota Corolla.. When we were going home, we heard recent news from the radio... When we arrived home, dad turned up the TV and wwatched the broadcast... Though I was so young so I didn't understand what happened...
Anyway, it's very sad that this did happen... I wish that this kind of horrible terrorism wont happen ever again...

Hahaha, sounds like what I did when this happened
As my mum said:
"Mummy, there are crashing planes into building"
Mum thought I was joking till she saw the news :P
-
So yeah, 9/11. I remember looking on the TV to see what was going on, and being only seven, I didn't understand much, but I knew something bad was happening.
-
Was too busy with my baby sister >.>
plus i was around 3 years old and was probably watching thomas the tank engine.
-
good ol 9/11 teaching us that life can just **** on people
-
I was living about 20 minutes from ny when it happened and I could see a sh** ton of smoke coming from new york.
-
I was 11 at the time. I remember watching on TV and thinking somebody messed with the wrong country.
-
You don't need to disguise the fact that you're blowing up a building by flying planes into it.

Toyota. Are you serious?

Freeziez, please tell me you are not a conspiracy theorist.

No, it's just that they didn't need to fill a plane up with jet fuel, hijack it, and fly it into the building, they could have just blown it up.

Yeah, but the goal was to cause maximum shock and maximum casualties, so for that, a plane was the more effective choice.

Not a surprise from Noodle...
-
Noodle, name a single good American car.
You know, one that doesn't need a refueling every 5 seconds of driving.
Anyway, I've made my own opinions on 9/11 clear IRL and online before.
Why can we make fun of the holocaust but not 9/11? Why are Nazi jokes garenteed laughs but Al Queda group jokes not?
-
I'm sure if you told a holocaust joke to a holocaust survivor he/she wouldn't laugh either. The main difference is 9/11 is still a lot more recent, and a lot of people who were directly affected by it are still around to be offended. I still laugh every time I look at that Hulk Hogan picture I posted though. The last panel gets me every time.

Making fun of terrorists has always been fair game :/
Anyways, my memory of 9/11 was watching it on the T.V. with my family. My Grandad, who was an extremely experienced and respected structural engineer, was on the phone with my Mum at the time. I remember him describing in detail that not only were the towers both going to collapse, but that they were going to "pancake." Sure enough, within minutes, the first tower came down exactly as he described.
Because of this, I laugh at anyone who tries to conclude that explosives brought the towers down because "they just don't fall like that on their own." They totally do, and any decent structural engineer knows this.
