Candles? But they use candles in churches. This can’t be right. Why I never... /s
The removal of religion by Bloomberg leaves me wondering why bother with this commemoration. What does Bloomberg think the biggest source of comfort was for families after 09/11?
And now he’s banned it. Whew.
Yes, we will have candles. The event in New York is disrespectful of the people that suffered so much. One of the speakers at our event in Lafayette is a FDNY Firefighter that was injured at Ground Zero that day. He had intended to go to the memorial in New York this year on the 10th Anniversary. Instead, since Bloomberg won't allow them, he is coming to our event in Lafayette, CA. He will be speaking.
If you are in our area, this commemoration is worth your time.
