We all know that on September 11, 2001, there were terrorist attacks on The World Trade Centers and the Pentagon. I might have been little when it happened, but it affects me to this day. Looking back 6 years, I can see the difference in all I've known since that day. We, as Americans, came together that day. Criminals and store keepers, both felt each others pain. This only happened one other time I can think of. When we dropped a nuclear bomb on a Japanese City. We saw how much terror we put in peoples minds and quickly outlawed them. (Even though we refuse to dissemble them...) We have a holiday for that day. It's called Vetrin's Day. If we can have a holiday for the fear we put into peoples minds, and how they put it in us, we should have a holiday for all of those that died and/or gave their lives on September 11. Not only did the terrorist succeed in placing fear in our hearts, they failed and destroying us as a country. We are back, I would say stronger then ever. And now that Osama Bin Ladden has revealed a new video, showing that he is clearly still alive, we are getting even stronger as a country. Now I'm not saying 9/11 was a good thing, but it was in a way. If you really read this, you should know what I mean. This day should be a holiday. Weather we get school/work off or not, I don't care. But for those in the future who weren't there when it happened, can remember the list of 24,629 names of people that died that day.
Thank you for reading/commenting.
