why, because i feel indifferent over something that happened 8 years ago and brought alot of disgrace to the world? forget about that shit and move on, remembering that stuff is so fcking depressing. it's sad for the relatives of the people who died and all their friends and family, but for the other people, the majority of you, stop looking in the past for excuses to cut your wrists.

If i told you 3000 arabic people died would most of you care? Probably not coz the media has brainwashed everyone into thinking that arabics are all dirty and scum. So its natural for some people not to care about 9/11.

The difference is that the people that died on 9/11 werent soldiers, they werent in the army or at war. They were in an office building, a very large one at that.
I agree that alot of people die everyday in wars, but the targets are what make the difference

Not really either ....somewhat indifferent. It's sad that "innocent" (using that loosely) people had to die.

Don't really care if it's 9/11, though I will pay my respects to the people that died that day in some way.

Lol...

I would care; doesn't matter the position in the conflict, I detest the action of killing another, regardless of reasons involved, especially if it's random. Of course, that's just me. Some others, however, are strongly different:

It's about showing some sort of respect towards the families / people who went to work that day and were slaughtered. Nothing more. If I say in remembrance of 9/11 I mean in respect of the innocent people that were killed that day. They have nothing to do with the following effects that the 9/11 attacks caused. Has the Us killed innocent people since then? Yep. Have more lives been lost following the attacks then what actually died in the attacks? Yep. Still doesn't change the fact that those 3000 were killed in a horrific way. It's not everyday that two buildings fall and 3000 people die.

Are there things going on around the world worse than what happened on 9/11/2001? Yep. And if they pertain to you, your nation, region, whatever; make a thread about it. But I promise if you do, I won't go in and shit all over it with disrespectful comments like "who cares", or "didn't care then don't care now". No one is saying make a huge deal about it, and like most, I thought about it yesterday and just took a few minutes thinking about it, concluded with "meh, that really sucks for the families", and went about my day. I don't feel the need to go into a thread and make myself look like a complete asshole.

If you don't care don't post? Just seems really disrespectful to me.

If the thread starter had said post here to show respect for 9/11 and the people who died or something to that effect then i doubt you'd get the same responses. Thats not what he did though. He posed a question to us and a question invites answers so cut the bleeding heart full of respect bit. He's is as much entitled to his opinion and PoV as you are to yours and neither one is more right or wrong than the other at the end of the day. If you want to come and here and give your opinion on the day thats fine but don't act like "I don't care" isn't as much a valid response to the question as yours because its in no way disrespectful to the topic....its not like he went LOLOLOL111 9/11 you guys got pwnd...


Thats not just for you its also for the ever self-righteous and consequentially hypocritical Ganji...

Fair enough, still seems disrespectful to me. Maybe if this thread hadn't been made on the DAY of the event I would see it a little differently. The thread title saying "Happy?" today, 9/11.. you figure it out.

When memorial day roles around I'm going to make a thread titled, "Are you glad all those soldiers died?" See my point? This thread being made in December..I wouldn't have replied.

Again, seems disrepspetful to me. Like you said, we're all entitled to our own opinion, that's mine.

lol...the day shouldn't make a difference.

People shouldn't suddenly remember black people in February.

People shouldn't wait till may to call their mom.

If this day means anything to you at all it shouldn't matter the day it should be a part of you whenever and making a topic like this no matter what month or what season should garner the same response...

but it doesn't...not in you, not in most people...9/11 is the day to remember 9/11 and then after that we can all keep acting like it never happened because for most of us it didn't and for most of us its the one day our of the year where we remember the debacle that started it all...

and we can give our once a year tokens of respect

and our once a year thoughts

and our once a year patriot speeches

etc etc...


it all seems like such a melodramatic performance to me...our once a year 9/11 show for all the fans out there...

Approx 15 000 to 17 000 children die a day from malnutrition and starvation in Africa.

3 000 died on 9/11?

A loss nonetheless; but, in light of the children, it wouldn't be fair for me to show them any special treatment.

And if i'm getting all emotional about the ideal or symbolism of 9/11, then it has to be for the millions of affected arabs and thousands dead.

Many people die everyday in wars, accidents, suicides and murders, all death is sad. But to be honest i dont really care about 9/11, what i care about is the familys who lost someone.

The day 9/11 happened a website called 'Ogrish' posted videos of people jumping out of the top floors windows and as they hit the floor they died instantly, was interesting to watch because im not scared by that sort of stuff, but what did make me think was thats someones child.

First of all, you're not tough when you say you dont care about 9/11. It doesnt make you cool, it makes you cold. Second of all, read what I have to say to dom.

Wouldnt have expected something this narrow-minded from a mod.

Like you said, the number of people suffering and dying in Africa is pretty extraordinary. There are millions more suffering in parts of southern asia, and the middle east. Theres a lot of poor countries out there. Does this mean that we, and every other industrial, first-world country should be sorry for and remember the plight of hundreds of countries around the world? Thats not our responsibility.

It comes down to this - others dont care about our troubles. They have their own problems. Do you think some people around the world really give a shit about what happens in America? We certainly dont care about what happens to them, and it would be ludicrous to expect any concern for us at all. Special treatment? Try losing your mom to an accident and while you're mourning for her someone calls that giving her "special treatment"...

The United States isn't God. We give a small percentage of our budget to foreign aid and we are donors to the UN, but thats just about what we can do. You think the United States is poverty free? We have lots of homeless people on our hands and we still dont do enough for them. Americans take care of their poor American people. Kenyans take care of their own Kenyan people. Easy concept. We have our own country to run, and it should definitely not be our responsibility to take care of someone else's. We only do our best to fulfill our obligations as other human beings to help them without diverting too many resources that would prevent us from taking care of ourselves.

Pretty coldhearted to be talking numbers. I dont care if 10,000 people died in 9/11. I dont care if ONE person died. The point is that someone died...the fact that innocent people lost their lives and threw their families into grief is the reason why we remember 9/11.

Well, my original idea is like "Happy 9/11 day" like a reminder, but i asked Sad too because it is (Happy sad 9/11 day?). Well, Of course is not a happy day. I think i made a mistake saying it's "Happy".
Anyways, i feel the same pain since this is almost similary to an earthquake happened here in S.A. wich many people died and lost their home.
I also remember a movie (wich i forgot the name) it was about an airplane who didn't get his target (the towers) but instead, got hit in the floor and all the crew died.
It was amazing, but sad cause they manage to take the control over the terrorist but not enough to control the airplane.

Saying you don't care has nothing to do with "being cool." Is this why people do things nowadays? To be "cool." Man, I'm such a badass I told that kid who thought he was "cool" off. Yeah man, yeah, such a badass. Seriously? Not caring is as valid an answer as caring especially when the topic is asking for people's opinions. You guys know what opinions are right? I think if we didn't meddle in other people's affairs a couple of radicals wouldn't have felt the need to drive a plane into a building killing innocents. Do I care a lot? No, it's so routine and pointless. Like Xemnes said, it's just another one of those days where you care for like 10 minutes then move on with your life. I was in New York@ the time, both my parents worked in Manhattan when they got attacked and I cared then. Do I care now? No. Am i happy it happened? No. Am I sad? No.

Sorry, still doesn't move me.

"We certainly dont care about what happens to them"

^Maybe because of this. Not everyone who posts on this forum is American and i'm certainly not.

And for further reference, the dying kids in Africa aren't of greater importance to me. As we say "ça m'est égal".

I just find interesting how you call me narrow minded for not caring. Then you post that you certainly don't care what happens to "them". I was once a blind nationalist; don't worry, you'll grow out of it.

It won't stop me from masturbating though.
