Yes, we now have the Patriot Act, DHS, and TSA.

Who needs freedom anyway?...

Not for the good.

It was the all purpose excuse for implementing all manner or repressive "emergency" measures that are still in effect.

Those repressive measures are now "normal" to the generation that grew to adulthood since then.

Yes. Practitioners of the religion that inspired the deadly attacks were promoted to victim status. A mosque was built near Ground Zero. Innocent non-terrorists were subjected to invasive searches in airports.

We were headed down a path to make good changes for a few days ... and then Bush announced that “Islam is a religion of peace”, and we started to coddle the people who want to kill us.

So 9/11 changed things, but not for the better.

In the long run it made American life much worse by giving government more unchecked power. Something that will only be undone by collapse or war.

No. All that’s needed to answer the question definitively is to note that this nation elected Barack HUSSEIN Obama a mere 7 years after September 11, 2001. Obama was an avowed, self-professed Marxist...said so in one of his early autobiographies. He also was educated for at least part of his growing years in Muslim schools.

It proved that when people say “never forget”... they will.

It seems that someone doesn’t like your source and tag-bombs it with derogatory keywords every time. Wonder why, since it looks to me like most other blog sites that are posted here many time a day, and unlike many gives info about their editorial team, which includes people from Cato, Heritage Institute, and other conservative organizations. And they give you the ability to request that your personal information not be sold.

Stating their issue would be more appropriate than passive aggression.

Thanks to the idiot GWB, Americans think Islam is a religion of peace.

...the Biden administration hadn't put too much faith its evaluation of the durability of the Afghan government...

The former President of Afghanistan told Traitor Joe in a phone call his country was being overrun by an invasion from Pakistan. Joe told him to lie about it.Joe knew. He just didn't care.

Yes. 9/11 gave the statists a pretext to obviate the Constitution and to impose the totalitarianism we increasingly live with each day.

“Seven decades of preventable tragedies have taken a heavy toll on American lives...”

That’s because the Union Government is run by some of the most pathetic incompetent politicians on the earth.

9/11 exposed just how inept these government agencies are at defending this country and how opportunistic they are at stealing rights from citizens.
