Healthy societies don’t memorialize getting their asses kicked.

"Remember Pearl Harbor" galvanized not a few actions in WWII, keep in mind...

Memorializing isn't glorifying - it's remembering so as to not let happen again.

We will just check you off as being one hundred percent against Pearl Harbor day then. It’s good that you revealed who you really are.

You ever hear of:
“Remember the Alamo”
“Remember the MAINE”
“Remember PEARL HARBOR”?
“Healthy” Societies do “remember” and do their best to prevent a REPEAT.
Overcoming the setback leads one to victory.
( Yes, I didn’t mention 9/11) We are still working on that one.

Really?

"Remember the Alamo" - The Alamo is located in San Antonio
"Remember the Maine" - The Maine was raised and taken out to sea and sunk, but it's crow's nest occupies part of Arlington cemetery where those sailors were laid to rest
"Remember Pearl Harbor" - the Arizona memorial and a dozen smaller plaques around Pearl Harbor recognize Dec. 7th.

While the Alamo is unique as the men knew they would die, none of the men on the Maine, or the survivors of the attack on Pearl knew they were going to die that morning.

Neither did the people who were just going on with their lives that September morning.

That is why 9/11 is memorialized and the tragedy of the vermin who took those lives are remembered.

"Healthy societies don’t memorialize getting their asses kicked."

Memorialize - Preserve the memory of.

If we did NOT memorialize 9/11...our society would leave wide open the door for the next generation's to be indoctrinated by the likes of Omar - "Some people did something."

A healthy society would NEVER forget that memory.
