It looks like A&E is running a 9/11 marathon tomorrow. Death and destruction all day.
On that day I was recording the proceedings on VHS but I have never looked at that tape. It's still too disturbing for me. I did watch the French documentary where two journalists happened to be recording the life and times of a NY Fire Department station crew and that was it for me...
Will watch football instead
It was interesting how they were showing the towers crashing down nonstop during the first few days, but then abruptly stopped showing it because they were afraid it was "too depressing".Originally Posted by limitles
Horribly depressing, yes, but you can't avoid history and reality because they are depressing.
If you really don't want to be depressed, don't ever listen to the Kevin Cosgrove 911 call. I couldn't get that shit out of my mind for a long time.
I think the all the 9/11 footage was quit being shown was to keep people from getting pissed off at the Muslims.It was interesting how they were showing the towers crashing down nonstop during the first few days, but then abruptly stopped showing it because they were afraid it was "too depressing".

Save a Cow - Eat a Vegetarian, they're grass-fed.
I'm sure it's a personality problem but I don't watch the local news or the national because of the guaranteed sorrow that dominatesIt was interesting how they were showing the towers crashing down nonstop during the first few days, but then abruptly stopped showing it because they were afraid it was "too depressing".

the "show". I worked in this business for a few years" radio" not tv but the same principle was in place......the more outstanding the higher the placement on the order.
"News" is given precedent because of the degree horriblebleness

As I recall I think there's a poster on DD that was at the Pentagon on 9/11 (actually spent 3 days there on and off) and has debated those who've sworn that it was a conspiracy. The guy ended up with PTSD after the whole thing and quit Fire and EMS in 2003 over it, and in fact lost a good friend who was in NY on business and was also a volunteer FF/EMT in the same county outside DC. The guy who died was 4 blocks away from the Towers and ran into Tower 1 trying to help and was in it when it came down..It was interesting how they were showing the towers crashing down nonstop during the first few days, but then abruptly stopped showing it because they were afraid it was "too depressing".

Those 9-11 conspiracy guys are so fucking insane. All they are doing is rubbing salt in wounds of victims families. I got pissed whenever I heard that shit and I am not even related to any ppl killed on 9-11.

from what i recall, less than four thousand people people died on 9/11
not trying to be a dick, but that's a grain of sand in the big scheme of things
i hate this fucking country
pretty sure about that many military have killed themselves this year, for example
What a bunch of crazy conspiracy theorists. This OBVIOUSLY fell due to "fire".
That is v crazy and sad if true.
They need to speed up those MDMA for PTSD clinical trials
What an irredeemably stupid and bigoted person you are.
Did you go around after the Timothy McVeigh and other domestic terrorist stuff saying "never forget those whiteys did it"
Cmon. We all know from Alex Jones that Oklahoma City was a false flag attack and out national parks are owned by Nato.

Obv joke is bad joke.
The Discovery Channel is starting to get a little ridiculous. They have another "new" 911 tape show. It almost seems if they are now milking 911 for ratings.
You know what's more insane?
Blind sheep who will drink whatever kool aid the mass media has to offer.
The victims families deserve truth. Someday maybe they will get it.
lol at fire bringing down these buildings. WTC7 moreso.
That is v crazy and sad if true.
So far this year the number of suicides in the military has surged beyond expectations, given that the pace of combat deployments has begun to slow. The Defense Department closely tracks suicides throughout the military but releases its figures only once a year. The Associated Press in June obtained an internal Defense Department document that revealed that there had been 154 suicides in the first 155 days of the year, though June 3. That marked the fastest pace of active-duty military suicides in the nation's decade of war.

"You run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole; you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole."
So Willie came pretty, pretty close. And lol at "less than four thousand"

He is an open racist, doesn't surprise me. His IQ won't allow him to properly weigh facts against his opinion.
Still waiting on a myth buster....
