I'm deeply ashamed or our post-9/11 America and how we've devolved away from what once made us great.

The Towers should have been rebuilt years ago, bigger, taller, brighter and better. Instead, I'm supposed to feel pride for a fountain? Pride is not what I'm feeling.

It's more like anger over how fearful and weak we've become, anger at the barbarically unConstitutional idiocy we're supposed to submit to during TSA screenings.

I'm angry it's now ten years later and we are no better for it. We still have the Twin Tower void in the NYC skyline. We are AFRAID to call a terrorist a terrorist. In short, we are worse off and less free.

And the hardest part to live with is that we, not the terrorists, did this to us.

Ours is not a war against the islamocrazies, it's an inner war of incompatible ideologies. That's our festering wound that won't heal. The islam nut jobs just picked off the scab and made us bleed a bit.

I don’t know ... the building site is sacred ground. Thousands died there and I feel its like building in a grave.

In MHO, it should be made into a memorial park to the
memory of the fallen.
