I had just got to work that morning when my co-worker told me that a plane hit the twin towers in NY, my response was "what an idiot they were probably drunk or highm how is someone going to hit a building in NY". Then the 2nd one hit and we were all in shock and glued to the radios, the local station switched over to a station in NY and the reporters were by the building when people were jumping out the windows, in the backround you could here the bodies hitting. We ended up getting out of work early that day because no one wanted to work, my work is right outside the Air Force base and Sandia National Labs so it was on high alert.

Too many conspiracy theories, but only they know for sure.

I remember there being a panic at the gas station here in Oklahoma that afternoon cause people thought you weren't gonna be able to get gas. People were waiting for hours to fill up their tank and some fools were price gouging the piss outta prices.

This thread made me mad. Lol @ being positive it was a inside job. Ok Columbos.
Wasn't intended to make anyone mad. Yet at the same time, if you bought in to the whole "dude living in a cave, controlling a network of terrorists to mount a massive attack on the US and take thousands of lives" story then you're not too bright either.

Was a life changing day for me...thats for sure. And lol @ anyone thinking this shit was planned, executed, and kept under wraps this effectively by the government. Anybody that has been in the military or worked for the federal government can tell you there's no way in hell the government and military can work that efficiently, LOL. Giving them way too much credit, lol.

I remember being late to school. Got in the shower with my mom screaming at me to hurry the fuck up, and when I got out of the shower I expected the same thing. I get dressed and come out the bathroom to see her sitting on the couch crying watching the replay of that shit being on fire

I didnt have to go to school that day... Not gonna lie, I was pretty stoked.

2001 was a really fucked up year for my family, and as a kid I couldnt comprehend the severity of the situation, nor did I care what had happened. The abundance of patriotism after the fact was really fucking annoying though

The weirdest shit of all is 2 planes hitting 2 towers and 3 buildings falling.
the weirdest part were the charges that were detonated to have them fall....not too mention the "terrorist attack" insurance policy that was taken out weeks prior on the buildings that required millions of dollars in maintenance

anyone else annoyed by the phrase "never forget?" what the fuck does that mean? we couldn't forget it if we wanted to. and what would be so bad about forgetting? like remembering it constantly honors those people? we seem to forget a lot of other bad shit that has happened with no problem.
just a slogan to never forget that terror can strike at any moment...keeping Americans in fear foundation started 2001

Yeah, the military taking over Iraq in like 2 weeks isn't efficient at all. Get outta here with that. The government is very inefficient in some ways, of course, but the military and other branches like NSA, CIA, FBI are extremely efficient.

I feel you, but in a lot of ways, most people have forgotten. New Yorkers are dickheads by nature. People were actually helpful and cordial to each other for a long time after that. It faded away, it all fades away. There were USA chants on city streets for no reason. People so proud to be American. It all fades away homeboy.

the only branch of the government that is efficient is the military inlcuding CIA, NSA and more so to the random letters that we know nothing about that conduct black ops...government is very efficient, and the fact you think they are inefficient means they are doing it right

At the end of it all, good or bad we lived through a historical moment. This is much like the JFK assassination or Peal Harbor. There will come a time when some us will be down to a handful of people who lived through this time period.

Just a bitter sweet thought.

do you think it is too far fetched that a dude living in a cave masterminded that shit? he didnt intend to kill that many people. im sure the intention was to kill who ever was on those planes and what ever floors of the buildings that were hit. i doubt the crumbling of the buildings were planned. if the buildings didnt crumble, and only the planes/building floor people died, that would have sent a big message to the US. thats all that woulda been needed in the eyes of those types of dudes. i seriously doubt the engineers who did those buildings took into consideration the type of damage that those planes did. they couldnt have taken that type of shit into consideration.

the engineer of the bay bridge fucked up and authorized use of some bull shit bolts that ended up breaking a couple months back, right before the bridge was suppose to officially open. that was in the 2000's. when were the towers built? mind you, the whole point of the bay bridge project was so it can withstand an earthquake.

that part of the world aint like here where they have all the luxeries we have. they have learned to adapt with out what we feel we need to make shit happen. im sure a white man in a Montana cave couldnt pull that shit off cus a white man in a Montana cave was born into a different world with way less limitations.

how many US soldiers died in Afghanistan? those are cave people breh.

.
not to derail the thread but what we were told vs the truth about those bolts are 2 different things.

i happen to personally know one of the structural engineers who has been working on that project & that was not due to faulty bolts, it was due to faulty torque specs on them, thus the contractor who installed them tightened them too much & they broke.


&.... they were NOT REPLACED.

They created a housing around them to keep them in place.

That bridge will FAIL during an earthquake, mark my words & bring this post back up when it happens. Because its not a matter of if, it is WHEN.
