Babs Posted May 5, 2005 #77 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Thousands of people flock to the 911 site every day and mourn. They erected a cross (in that hole) for the dead and the memory of all those souls. "We will never forget" is our motto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am me Posted May 5, 2005 Author #78 Share Posted May 5, 2005 (edited) or the estimated 100,000 iraqis that have died during this war, or who knows how many afghanistans died during our take over of that country. how soon will you forget all of those deaths, or the thousands of US soldiers who have died in iraq. government has been the cause of over 170,000,000 deaths in the last 100 years. sad isn't it? quite ironic that government is here for the better welfare of the people right? but never forget those who died in 9/11 because they are the only ones who mean anything to anybody in the world. never forget.

Babs Posted May 5, 2005 #79 Share Posted May 5, 2005 You don't sound like you are from this country. Could it be because your family is in the military and you have found yourself (totally) against their values? Much like principals, teachers and preachers' kids, you know, how many of them grow up to be totally opposite of their parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander CMG Posted May 5, 2005 #80 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Or maybe you think this is funny? 606531[/snapback] OK Babs, I think you got your point across to wunarmdscissor, however I think wunarmdscissor chose the wrong wording for the point he tried to get across.

Much like principals, teachers and preachers' kids, you know, how many of them grow up to be totally opposite of their parents. 606728[/snapback] yeah my dad is in the military, and i used to be pro military everything, but i have lived all over the place, and i see what an american military presence does to local populations in various countries. it is sad, and then i try to envision what it would be like if another country did the same to our country, even worse! i think there is a lot of anti-government, self responsibility in my family. although my dad seems like he could be an anchor for fox news at times. he is fed day in and day out information from the government, and propaganda. he said he got to watch on plasma screen TVs drone airplanes fly around and kill terrorists when he was in iraq. he consistently referred to them as evil, and blah blah blah. sounded just like TV. i used to hate people like me, and people who were against the US military. i always thought we should just go blow up north korea, iraq, and all of these countries that are so called enemies. it wasn't until i started looking at things in a different way, a more logical way, when i started thinking rather than just repeating the statements the media grinds into your head that such and such country is evil and a threat to all americans. the internet is what really helped me more than anything. if it wasn't for the internet and the vast resources of information, i would probably still cheer on the military conquests of the neocons.

I understand where you are coming from, but I have my 'own thoughts', then I turn on tv and Fox News seems to have read my mind, they are saying exactly what I think. And, they talk about exactly how I feel. So, it's the other way around for me, I don't get slogans or speeches from the news, these are my ideals. I realize that there are people who merely repeat the media statements, but not all do this. Surely you see this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
