Just, don't get caught up in the emotion of it all, we face real problems that could eclipse this event and in order to honour the memories of those who died not just on Sept 11th but those who had died at the hands of terrorists. We must look forward into averting these events and promote peace.
Look forward, not back. But if its neccessary to look back then remember that these events were caused by mistakes we made too.
I agree for both partys.

I don't think it's so much about looking back and feeling sorry...for me at least...but I think it's a good idea to show our solidarity and support as a community and to also acknowledge that we respect those that gave their lives only 3 years ago...
But I can see where you're coming from Nerdling....
