Starrgaizr collected these, and they are worth remembering (sorry for messing up his much better formatting, but this is the best I can do):
Upon request, Starrgaizr collected links to many of the earliest threads from September 11, 2001 below. Starrgaizr reviewed threads from the very first FR report (http://www.freeRepublic.com/focus/fr/520255/posts)through thread number 520326. Feel free to add other significant threads, including photo archives. Bumping this thread periodically instead of the original threads will also avoid scaring people with the headlines.
Bookmark this thread, and bump it from time to time when the nation and the press seems to forget why we need resolve in the face of evil. Forgive some of the early misinformation and broken photo links, and recall the horror and fury.
One of my kids asked me today where I was and what I remember about 9/11. I still remember it like it was yesterday.
I also remember it as though it was yesterday, I find it so hard to believe it was 18 years ago AND just how much it has been forgotten, to think we have Muslim anti Semitic congress people now REALLY DISTURBS me!!! On that day I was so STUNNED that in this country 4 airliners could be hijacked at exactly the same time for this damage to be done!!! NOW today I am not at all stunned that this could have happened knowing NOW just how corrupt and incompetent the CIA and FBI truly are!!!
What stuns me is to travel through an airport and see all of the Mooselimbs working there. It makes me want to walk to where I am going. Are there no American citizens that want to work at those jobs?
EXACTLY one of those employees was just arrested last week for tampering with computer controls on an airliner, THANK GOD the pilots knew something was severely wrong and aborted take off!!! We have learned NOTHING from 9/11 absolutely NOTHING!!! I haven’t been in an air plane since 9/11 and I will NEVER get on another one again!!! As far as I can see 9/11 could happen again today our FBI and CIA are totally incompetent and I am with you MOOSLIM employees are UNACCEPTABLE in the airline industry!!!

Watching “102 minutes that changed America” right now on the History channel. They show plenty of jumpers and even the radio dispatches to the cops and firefighters telling them of the jumpers.
Glad they showed that. Let us never forget!
PING
Check out # 29.
Agree. I have been on one flight since but it was a have to situation. Never again.
Hiring maintenance crews who hate us is asking for trouble.
Annual read and bump.
Bump
I can barely read those threads without crying. The uncertainty, the fear and worry, and concern for Freepers with families in NY, is just all brought back when reviewing the real-time comments and discussions. And many Freepers on those threads are no longer with us.
Bkmrk.
I have an archive of photos which I downloaded and saved somewhere on an old drive.
I was considering posting them online and linking them here, but I just haven’t had the time. There were, iirc, literally hundreds of photos. It will take HOURS.
I’ve bookmarked this thread and will update when - NOT ‘if’ - I accomplish that task.
Thanks for posting. Always go back to the FR threads from that day each year. Still amazed that it was only 80+ replies before someone nailed bin Laden.
