911 Have you forgot?

[johnny_boy02]

My personal mission should be everybody's mission! I have been shocked to hear so many say to drop it and get on with our lives! The problem with that is we will and up with another Vietnam! A war run by poltitions! We need to remember and keep that fire in our belly's! Soon as we look the other way or try to keep out of our head, we loss! These Young Men & Women are fighting and dieing so you can post your thoughts on this site! My son could be wheeling every weekend, hitting the bars, doing all the things a 21 year old usely dose! But he chose to sign up and be a worrier!

Do you think this man needed to take that dive? What did he do to the world? What did he do to these men that flew the planes?

Sorry im rammbling now.

Maybe some people forget, that has not been my experience. I just don't see the point in 9/11 being thrown in peoples faces all the time. And like I have said a few times in this thread I don't think the lives lost in 9/11 are anymore important than lives lost in other tragedy's.

From the bottom of my heart I thank your son for his service. And pray he comes home unharmed.

[79coyotefrg]

Thank you for your answer. I have to leave for awhile. But will reply to you when I get home.

not if i can help it

I don't know how I posted twice? Can someone remove one of my duplicates?
Thanks Guy

Lol. Abuse of power much?

Rebut all you want. My post was not ment to offend anybody.

I dont think many people have forgotten about 9/11. Many people just choose to learn from the past and move on.

I was simply asking why this guy felt the urge to post this on lots of boards. I get tired of all the remember 9/11 stuff. Where are the remember Oklahoma City, Katrina etc threads? Why are the people that died in 9/11 more important than any outher tragedy?

Oh and both the Darryl Worley songs suck.

Thanks Glen.

No, I don't abuse power much at all. Anyone that knows me would know that. I was just trying to keep this from turning into a hate thread, but BD replied at the same time I removed it so I asked that it be restored.

There are rememberances of Oklahoma City,and like Glen said, Katrina was a hurricane.
How many other natural disasters do you figure we should we celebrate? Mt. St. Helans? The 1989 earthquake? Give me a town, I'm sure there was a disaster...

I checked Daguy's recent posts, the only other place he posted this was under the "a special thank you to our troops" thread, and I see nothing wrong with posting there and starting a thread of it's own. It's appropriate in both places. It was NOT posted all over the boards... you are the one over reacting Johnny Boy.. you obviously have issues. Is this Tiger Toy under another name?

[Lady Di]

And what you think of music is merely your opinion and has nothing to do with any part of a debate.

  I wish I was as well spoken as some of the others here, there is so much I would like to say, but anger would take over.

I'll leave it to those with the eloquence it takes to say it right...

oh  i dont EVEN  need  to get started on this punk  that  probably had a silver nipple shoved up his  ass   since he was pooped out

[Lady Di]

   Why can't we all just get along?   

"they" will never compromise... we.. yes even you tree hugging "why can't we just can't along shirt lifters"... are infidels.. the only good infidel is a dead infidel. There is no compromise, there is no talking about it.
I am personally preferential to a head firmly attached to my neck.

Well you posted this on December 26, let see, September, October, November, December.

Seem like you forgot it for a while, just about 4 month off.

No I didn't forget it but there have been greater tragedy in this world that people seem to forget about!

In the world, sure..But we are not talking worldwide, we are talking home turf, we are not just talking any tragic even... what greater US terrorist attack has there been?

[Lady Di]

THAT is what this is about. This was not just and devastating event. This was attack from the outside on our home turf.

There's your answer folks.  The guy has a son who is in the military.  He wants people to remember why we CURRENTLY have soldiers fighting and dying....the thing that started this CURRENT war.  Reminding people of why we need to support our troops does not take away from any other tragedy that's ever happened in America.  It's not a contest.  Accept it for the supportive gesture that it was and say "hell yeah man, we hear ya."

Are you talking about the Afghanistaneese or the Iraqineese war

[86bobbedtoy]

GOD BLESS AMERICA, think real hard on that, and on how many people have died for our country not just this war but all our wars, we have always came out on top and in our hearts we all know we always will, Prayers going out to all our troops and all the us citizens over there for us and our children GOD BLESS.

No offence, but, a remembrance or tribute needn't wait until an anniversary.

MrsWillyMammoth: Removing a post because you don't agree with it most certainly is a abuse of power. There is no reason this would turn into a hate thread unless you doubt the board members ability to have a rational conversation. If 9/11 is going to brought up every few months I fell every tragedy should. Like I said above, the lives lost in 9/11 were worth no more than live lost else where. I have seen this posted by the same person on 3 boards, so search harder.  I don't know who Tiger Toy is? And BLACKDOG quoted a song, so it does in fact have to do with this thread.

79coyotefrg: You never responded to my question. But seen to be attacking me because of my oppinion. I think you should take a step back. You can search my IP all you want, I have never signed up on here or anyother board with a different name. Feel free to search my username on other boards, you will see I am not out to start problems.

jonboy, you seem to be missing the point and ignornace seems to apply here, you state that the mods are abusing power, they are not, you are a new member here and taking pot shots at people, and think you are right, hopefully one day you will learn to keep your mouth shut. if i seem like im a jerk, thats too bad. i can tell you, im speaking from experience, i used to be a dumbass kid like yourself and it took a life changing experience befroe i learned when to shut my mouth....

all we can ever do is learn from our own mistakes, however it appears you are sticking your foot in your mouth everytime you post, making you look like a total moron to everyone else, and if thats how you feel you want to coem accross thats fine, but i can tell you from experience we dont need your kind around here.....

[abnormaltoy]

My initial response is...why would it matter to you where he posted his video. The internet is vast. If you see a thread that you think might upset you, don't open it or at least don't respond to it.
Why shouldn't he post it everywhere? I wonder why scenes from the attack aren't shown more frequently by "Big Media". I'm not sure how it goes...but either the left controls the media or media controls the left. Images from the attacks on September 11th stir the same patriotic emotions that recounts of the attack on Pearl Harbor did during WWII. The left does not believe in patriotism. They don't believe in national sovereignty.
I don't know why the bombing in Oklahoma City doesn't strike me with the same sense of outrage that the September 11th attack did (and still do). Maybe it's because, on some level, I can empathize and understand their frustration with our government. Maybe it's because, as far as we knew at the time, they were American. No matter, terrorism is still cowardice.
Katrina...if I'm not mistaken there was at least a weeks notice, enough time for me to get out of southern Florida. A hurricane is not, despite what Farrakhan says, brought on by an evil entity. Hurricanes, tsunamis, fires and volcanoes are natural occurrences.     

[jimbo74]

i agree with AT, but a fire can definately be set on purpose to promote terror, jsut look at the oil fields in kuwait during desert storm, those were no accidnet

To me deleting a post because you don't agree with it is an abuse of power. I have not taken a pot shot at anybody? You and others have made attacks at me. Please show me where I have attacked another member here. Please explain what my "kind" is.

This thread was started, I responded. That is how boards work is it not?

You don't seem seem like a jerk. This is the internet, I don't take things personally. What you say and how you feel is just as valid as anyone else.

[abnormaltoy]

I kind of knew that would be a sensitive subject, since so many people here have been affected by the fires in Cali. We also had a few eco-nazis out here setting fires to new homes that they thought shouldn't be there. Actually setting the fires in Kuwait was an age old tactic.

[jimbo74]

What you say and how you feel is just as valid as anyone else.

EXACTLY! that is why there is no need to start ragging on someone elses thread about hey why dont you do a memorial for all the other tragedies in the world?

and just to make a point, 9/11 was the first terrorist attack on america of a huge magnatude, were there other ones, yes, but they did not compare

if you feel the need to say well this guy psoted on otehr sites too, jsut dont read his threads. yes it is the internet, posting on it is what peopel do, if you dont like it, you can leave, there is no reason to stay if that is your attitude. nobody is forcing you to respond to the thread or even be here on this site or the otehr ones this member belongs to

You are right. Posting is what people do. So I posted in response to the thread he posted. I asked a simple question, others are the ones getting bent out of shape.

No one is forcing you to read my posts so, the same goes for you, if you dont like what others say you can leave. And what attitude?

[jimbo74]

And what attitude?

that attitude exactly, thinking everything you said is gospel

the guy posts a thread saying i made a tribute to 9/11, you coem on here and saying we dont need to see your crap all over the internet why dont you make one for all tragedies.....

[BLACKDOG]

Ya know, I had intended a nice civilized reply on this thread when I got home this evening, but then I stumbled upon this little gem on the pirate board.  Johnnyboy, this is a direct quote from what you said on the pirate board

(linky)  http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=538595

Holy !!!!! I had forgot! Thanks for posting this.

OMG!! It has a Toby Keith and a Lee Greenwood song!! Its just like Christmas...........

Thats just f'ing disrespectful dude   Not to Toby Keith, or to Lee Greenwood, I don't give a damn how you feel about them.  Speaking about anyone who died in that tragedy (other than the bastards who planned it)  is just plain wrong.  I'm not raising this above any other tragedy, I feel the same about OKC, the USS Cole, etc.  No one deserves to have to choose death by fire or thousand foot drop.  What the hell is the matter with you, I'm glad you didn't forget, now start caring.  You posted about all tragedies being equal in previous posts, so where's the compassion now?    if you treat all tragedies, and all people like this, I certainly do feel sorry for you.

No, we needn't dwell on the past, or forsake the future, but if we forget the events that frame our world, we wil fall back onto the mistakes of our forefathers, something we should never do.  So yes, remember 911, yes remember OKC, remember the USS Cole, remember every single gosh darn soldier that ever died for this wonderful nation, most of them 1000s of miles away from their homes, and show some f'ing respect!!

i think this thread should now be deleted or locked, if it isnt, all i can forsee into the future is jonboy getting himself banned....
