Did your school have a silence for 9/11?

[Eamonn]

Nopeeeeeeeeee lols.

[Herman]

Nar. I never expected it to anyway.

[Frodo13.]

Mine didnt
and my RE teacher said 'whats the point? we dont have a moments silence for the somewhat 40,000 innocent people we've killed in Iraq?'

Is your R.E teacher part of Al Queda?

I dont think we should ahve one. Yes, alot of people died, but do we have silences for the Battle of the Somme, and for the 10 of thousands of people who died every day in WW1 and WW2? No

America knew all about this, and they said it would never happen, so they didnt fork out on extract sercurity.
If you leave your door open and go out, people may walk in. Same principle. Lock your door, and make it harder for the burglur.

We didnt have a silence, we have:

Could the owner of the Black Saab please move it as soon as possible, as its blocking the access way for the new toilets, and the trac'ors that are trying to get onto the top field.
Thank You, from the bald man upstairs

Also, for poeple comparing it to Iraq, 40 something soldiers died in 2 months. Thats hardly anything, and we are suppose to be btohered? I work on Macianvellian-type principle. Hundreds of thousand of people died in 1 day, yet do we have silences for them? Theres still teh death penelty in some states in America, and idiots walking the streets commiting mass-murder, and killing inosent people every day. No-one deserves there like taken, even if it does cost £100,000 a year to keep 1 prisoner. We are paying that in taxes to be safe.
So why should we feel sorry for Americans who faked their own deaths in the towers, as eveidence has reveled, and why should we feel sorry for the people who knew an attack would happen, yet sat back and relaxed blindedly?

No - I do not feel sorry for them. Yes, it is terrible in the modern world, and the modern age, but why are they any different to people who are raped, murdered, and made their lives hell? It shouldnt happen, but it did. End of story. Remember it, and move on.

Does anyone object to this? Instead of flaming me, take me on in a specialist debate.

Thanks

[pepperoni nipz]

[Sazzle]

67 Britons? More Britons have died on holiday in Spain, where they when to see cheap houses, and were kidnapped for £20,000 each, per letter.

More Britons die on holiday.
Theres 60 million people in the UK. 67 / 60 000 000 isnt alot.

How about the millions that died across the nations in World Wars? That seems to be over looked with modern terrorist attacks
