That's because no victims passports survived the planecrash, melting steel balks and jet fuel.

Why would someone remember individual names, if they didn't know them? And I can't name a terrorist involved, either.

Cocytus, this is a bad topic.

I could, and I do.

It's nearly impossible to find any information more than "a lot of people were killed".

I'm also talking about ANY horrible disaster like that, not just specifically 9/11. School shootings, bomb threats, road accidents... all the media cares about is the ones responsible. Not the victims.

i mean do you care about anyone unless they've done something noteworthy?

are you going around looking up random people?

So basically if they're not a celebrity, they can die and you don't care?

My aunt almost got a job in the WTC a few weeks before 9/11. That wouldve sucked

I wonder when 9/11 is going to become more like a distant memory than this world changing thing for people. Nobody makes a super big deal about it in NJ anymore. We moved on with our lives. We dont use it as an excuse to profile Muslims. Most of the hysteria I see about it still is from people on the other side of the country who werent affected by it at all. If you live in a rural area youre not going to be targeted

I just said and you quoted me that of course you're entitled to your opinion. It just bugs me that people are crying about a very obvious point that other people actually get, and when it's from someone who isn't even American it bugs me a little more because you say you miss the point but it wasn't even your attack. But sure you're entitled to your opinion. I just wish people would tone down this self righteous attitude. I don't mean any offense.

Wow, talk about close calls. Yeah I don't know, I feel like the memory is fading. I remember it like yesterday though.There used to be a 9/11 board on Gamefaqs during CJatC's time. Not sure if it's still there though.

Everyone is a target for religious extremism

Terrorists aim to create the most damage and hysteria in an attack. Thats why they target big cities and large, iconic targets. They dont give a shit about your hodunk hometown.
