9/11 Tomorrow. Remember Who You Were Before That Day

I am the same person I was then although my political leanings have changed. On 9/11/01 I fully supported George W. Bush. By the time he left office, I thought he was the worst President we had ever suffered through... then along came Barack Obama.

I do remember where I was on that morning though.

I was less worried about our government.

On 9-11-01, I never expected to have two joint replacements and a medication pump. But even if I had I would NEVER have expected those three things to cause me to be a prime terror suspect every time I boarded a plane.

that's crazy,it seems like there has to be a better way to keep airplanes secure.

I was as well.

I was just as worried about our govt then as now.

Really? If you would have told me before 911 that airport security would be frisking the elderly and 6 year old girls and not leting baby formula on board,or that the goverment could spy on Americans with out reason or warrants, that we would be involved in 2 wars for almost 10 years and involved in other conflicts, I would have said you were crazy.
 
While I think it is important to remember who we were before that day. I think it is equally important to remember who and what we were ON that day.

Working, and wondering why there was a long line of cars at the gas stations, and why the price almost double on the price of gas.
 
I don't believe that I have changed any. I would still go back on active duty if they would let me. I tried on 9-12-01.

But the world did change that day. Some of us received the wake up call and are taking security more seriously. Others ***** about the extra security and think it has infringed upon their rights.

Those who don't like it should be given the option of flying in a plane where none of the passengers or crew went through any security. Lots of luck with that........

Tomorrow Morning I will go around the village and lower all the American flags to half staff, at dusk tomorrow I will go raise them back to full.

God Bless America, and don't forget Patriot Day. Also remember a moment of silence at 0846. The time the first plane hit the first tower.
 
I was waiting for the call too Ollie - recall to Active Duty - but it never came.

God bless ya shipmate!
