i saw it once, in the original footage, real time, as it happened. A pox on the MSM for hiding it and so much else.

I never felt personally effected by 9/11 since I have never been to NYC and did not know anyone directly effected by the 9/11 attacks. I felt detached from the terror. Intellectually I knew what the attacks meant but I lacked the feeling. It was more shock and no anger.

A week later, I saw the pictures of people jumping from the fires to their certain deaths. Those pictures personalized the effects of the attack and the impact on the people. I felt the shock and horror in a way I could not have experienced without the pictures. I felt angry. It felt much different than watching buildings fall down.

I never saw those pictures except by way of the internet via e-mail. It is something that the MSM would not show. I disagree with that decision.
