In memory to those who perished on 9/11

It was a tragic day in America on September 11th 2001, when terrorists hijacked a commercial passenger jet airliners into the twin towers. The buildings collapsed within two hours of the strike. The resulting death toll was 2,973 victims, 19 hijackers and over 6,000 injured.
This Sunday is the 10th anniversary of 9/11 --- Let me know how you'll show your respect and what's going on in your hometown to remember all our brave firefighters and police officers who risk their lives that day. 
 
Due to the "lack of room", NYC Police Officers, Port Authority Police Officers, FDNY Firefighters are not "invited" to the 10th anniversary of 9/11 at Ground Zero. Funny - they weren't invited on that day in 2001 either - they just "showed up" and became heroes. Don't you think they belong there more than a bunch of politicians? 
    
Do you remember where you were on 9/11?


God bless all the brave firefighters and police officers who lost their lives that day.

9/11 8:46 a.m. We pause to remember
