Unfortunately, those who agree with the actions taken on that day would probably get some joy out of watching that footage, and none of us wants to give them any pleasure whatsoever.

The image of people jumping out of those windows to certain death is probably the most horrible thing I can imagine. I don't know about you, but I've got nightmares about it. I want to see the these people punished, killed, big-time.

I also think, as repugnant as we find criticism of our government, it's an important freedom. One for which thousands of younger Americans are now fighting.

I think the majority of people in America feel just the way you described, Ish. The great silent majority has been too silent, on so many things. Until now. Now, most of us are just observing....sending in money....and trying to make some money to keep helping. But the average person I talk to every day is seething inside....We ARE ready to do WHATEVER is needed ....Our children and grandchildren can not live with these murderers!!!

And reading your words about the two holding hands, jumping from the 92nd floor of the WTC, still brings me, and I'd venture to say most Americans, to tears again!
