What concerns me much more than someone who is just as angry 15 years later are the people who have no concern at all, have no anger and insist that we brought it on ourselves and we must understand and embrace iSlam or else we are racists and deserve to be punished.

I’m still angry too.

Fox News, to its credit, showed a couple of video sequences with jumpers in this morning’s rememberence show.

That’s why I call them pigdog murder-muzzies.

To suggest that the jumpers committed suicide in a sinful manner is stupid.

It’s like Erwin Rommel’s suicide. He had a choice, shoot himself, or have his family and staff be executed with him. He chose to spare others.

These poor souls only have to account to God, and not moralizing hypocrites.

I knew a lady whose husband was there on 9/11. He got out, but had to step over pieces of the jumpers who splattered.

He probably has PTSD to this day.

One of those poor souls could be my sister-in-law’s cousin, Frank Monahan, Cantor Fitzgerald. I can still hear my sister-in-law’s hysterical crying that day. Yes, I’m still angry also.

The uni-party and their media enablers were terrified the jumper videos and photos would create an uncontrollable backlash.

Yet the 9/11 jumpers videos are still on You Tube.

My anger, hate and rage hasn’t dimmed one bit.

Sometimes I wonder why skyscrapers don’t store jumping cords in emergency equipment. With those, few would have suffered serious harm, let alone died.

"My anger, hate and rage hasn’t dimmed one bit."

200 years from now, I want their children's children's children
to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead
because their legends tell of fire from the sky.

I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth,
shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines
because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters
crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.

I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with
"If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you",
and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obedience.

I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology
will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea
.. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.

Well, in a WAY, America left a spiritual door open to this kind of evil, wicked, heinous attack. This doesn’t excuse the bastards who did it.

And yet we have this pesky God who insists on our putting all our activity beneath Him.

We can rent the devil but the cost to us will be fearful.

Fifteen years later, and the emotions that this day brings up are still powerful.

The thought of stepping out into the air like that is absolute nightmare fuel to me, and I used to skydive back in the day.

I would *never* blame them for doing what they were forced to do.

SUPERB!
If I could push the launch buttons, I would have then, and I would now.
