Memories and 9/11

[TheReveiwer]

It seems that the whole "Remember 9/11" has faded out

I do remember it but it's human nature to forget things all things are forgotten and things comming up afterward makes that process faster

Prisioner Abuse scandel
People questioning the Iraq war
Patriot Act

these things made people forget faster so personally I blame the current administration for people forgetting 9/11 and if peps do forget the right wing loses it's base for power because if people arent afraid they wont pass the insane crap they want to pass

so in all actuality they screwed themselves

anyway I do hope we do remember 9/11 and the lives lost but like I said it'shuman nature to forget

[seventy-one]

Of course we'll remember 9/11, I see people crying at ground zero when I visit NY, but out lives do have to go on. We won't forget, but we shouldn't devulge ourselves into mourning forever.

Its a good thing you dont think about what you post before you post, or we would miss out on random ass gems like this.

On behalf of all, thankyou.

but how often do you hear of it?

the flaw is human memory

and when Generations pass will our children and childrens children remember it also?

Please, some of us lost family or friends that day, so don't use it as an excuse to bash something. Personaly I'm glad it doesn't have as much attention as it used to, we'll always remember, but some memories are too painful to have out every day. Give people time for there personal grief without dragging the whole country into it.

What happened on 9/11? Ask that question of any American, and you're sure to get an emotional, passionate response. People haven't forgotten 9/11. We're reminded of it everytime we see the sunrise over the NYC skyline, look at the pentagon, fly on an airplane, etc. Americans still remember clearly and distinctly the events that occured that fateful day.

But we've moved on. As a nation, we can't dwell on what's happened on 9/11 and hide in fear or mope, that's what the terrorists want. And though we can sit around and dwell on that day, it won't change the fact that it happened nor will it bring back the lives that were lost. Time heals all wounds, and it's been the case here.

To bad you can't upgrade your memory like a PC huh. You can only remember so much, try to hold on to the good memories.

So, essentially, all you are saying is that people can forget things.

Wow.

So again, all you're essentially saying is that people will tend to think more about the current issues at hand rather than something that happened 4 years ago?

[PhysicsMafia]

people wont ever forget 9/11, thats like sayin do you think people will forget the world wars. although not as large an even it still changed the face of america and the attitudes of world leaders everwhere and lead to 2 wars already and most likely a few more

What in the Christ, man? What do abused prisoners have to do with terrorist attacks? Did you say 'nothing at fucking all'? Because that's what you should have said.

Why are you just one big ball of ignorant, in every post you leave (like a puppy leaves turds on your living room floor when you leave the room) on the BBS?

[MasterBlaster500]

It was a horrible thing that happened, peoples lives were ruined by it... Get the fuck over it already.

Your missing my point
I'm saying how an event can push it's way into someones memory and wind up pushing something else out

So what? What do you want to do about it? Do you want to install some sort of mind chip to force people to think about 9/11, 24/7? Do you want to illegalize forgetting 9/11?

If not, did you just create this discussion just to tell us this? We all know that as we think of more things, we tend to forget other things or put them on the back burner. It's common sense.

[LuckFarmer]

Just because a saying dies it does not meen the message is forgottin

Actually I was getting at how futile the right wing's shield is

Since we do forget

the right wing needs to reform itself instead of using the events of 9/11 and other terror attacks to puch outragious policies

[AbstractVagabond]

I think we keep remembering 9/11 to keep ourselves in denial that the terrorists won.

OUr society did change a whole hellof a lot

Provided we still have any freedoms left to secure. That's what bothers me about 9/11. The attempts of making security take away what needs to be secured. Well, moreso than the normal rate prior to 9/11.

So first, you blame the administration for coming up with new policies and problems that ignore and move away from 9/11, now you're accusing them of exploiting 9/11 in creating those same policies and problems.

Make up your mind.
